Epic KONE Motor on this one. I Love that sound :D

[CaptainElevator42189]

Indeed, and if Montgomery Elevator was still in business, they would have hydraulic motors sound like this, while using the same cab/door/fixture design on UT Austin's Kone elevators.

Very nice elevator from late 2006-early to mid 2007.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Actually late 2005-early 2006.

KONE did not sells hydraulic elevators anymore. All their new elevators is now traction elevators, often machine-room-less (EcoDisc MRL).

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, and they now have a new vandalproof signal fixture package called the KSS-140, but I just call it the KSS-100.

[lielevators]

Yeah, right before they stopped.

[lielevators]

KONE has already discontinued hydraulics.

@CaptainElevator42189 Yes. that sounding very nice. I think hydraulic elevators are very nice. they making nice sounds :D

[CaptainElevator42189]

If so, it must have been from early or mid 2007, since it was late 2007 in November-December when Kone ended hydraulics.

[TheZekethunder]

@CaptainElevator42189 Yeah I guess your right

[CaptainElevator42189]

I know that, but they can pay for themselves in the long run.
