Energy-saving electric home lift
MangustaLaunched in 2009, MANGUSTA is an energy-saving, battery-powered home lift developed with ARE SMART POWER technology. MANGUSTA is the ideal solution for installations in small domestic spaces, apartment blocks, offices or public areas, both indoors and outdoors.
Thanks to the limited installation space required compared to a traditional lift, the MANGUSTA electric home lift is the ideal solution for breaking down architectural barriers and facilitating user mobility.
If there is no existing masonry shaft, and a new one cannot be built, MANGUSTA can be supplied with a metal frame shaft.
Features of this Energy-saving electric home lift Mangusta
Developed with ARE SMART POWER technology and battery-powered, the MANGUSTA electric home lift guarantees high levels of energy efficiency. The opportunity of recharging its batteries using the solar energy produced by the photovoltaic panel (SOL-ARE technology) minimizes the amount of energy drawn from the grid, right down to a consumption level of ZERO.
Maximum energy efficiency
Its use of just 130W of power is on a par with what is needed for an everyday electrical appliance.
Minimum space requirements
MANGUSTA makes maximum use of all the space available. As all its dimensions can be customised, it is the ideal choice for renovations.
Comfort and silence
Soft departure and arrival, stopping precision and silence are the stand-out features of the MANGUSTA electric home lift’s movement.
No machine room
The absence of a dedicated machine room allows the electric home lift to also be used in buildings and homes with limited space.
Tailor-made design
Every Mangusta model is unique.Our experience allows us to meet the needs of any customer as our solutions offer not only customised dimensions but a customised design too. We can recommend the most suitable materials and colours to ensure every lift is in perfect harmony with the environment around it.
Discover ARE SMART-POWER technology
ARE SMART-POWER is the name given to the innovative, patented technology with numerous energy efficiency benefits we use to power our lifts.
-
Recharging from SOL-ARE photovoltaic panels Renewable energy Zero consumptionSOL-ARE is ARE’s new patented technological innovation that is designed to optimise lift battery recharging using solar energy produced by photovoltaic panels.
-
Energy recovery The more you use it, the more energy you storeThe energy produced during the normal use of our lifts is not wasted as heat, but stored in batteries for use in subsequent runs. This reduces national power grid consumption costs.
-
Anti-blackout system Always working, always safe.Batteries are the main power supply system used on our lifts. This allows our lift to continue to operate even in the event of a sudden power failure, so accessibility and safety are guaranteed at all times. * With charged batteries and under optimal usage conditions, up to 60 runs can be made with the Mangusta and Miniwatt lifts and up to 40 runs with the ZEN-0 lift.
-
Low energy consumption, maximum power Like a household applianceThanks to ARE SMART POWER technology, the maximum power used by our lifts is comparable to, if not lower than, many household appliances. For example, the power used by the MANGUSTA and MINIWATT home lifts is only 130W, less than that of an electric or microwave oven. The comparison also applies to the unique ZEN-0 electric lift, which uses only 300W.*
*In Switch manoeuvring, 1200W of power are used and with rapid recharging 1500W – reference values measured on a system with a load-bearing capacity of 450KG and a speed of 0.15 m/s)
Display Smart
Our Display Smart allows you to monitor in real-time all the information about the energy generated by the electric lift during use and the level of battery charge. Additional functions include warnings regarding overloads in the cabin, low battery charge and no mains voltage.

No, according to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, the speed of home lifts in EU countries cannot exceed 0.15m/s. In countries outside the European Union this speed can reach up to 0.3m/s
A battery-powered lifting system guarantees high levels of energy efficiency, thanks to its low consumption of electrical energy from the national grid and its recovery system that stores energy in the batteries during operation, so it can be used in subsequent runs. From this point of view, battery power offers system users greater safety as it allows the lift to be used even in the event of a blackout.
Under certain usage conditions, all lifts behave like energy generators. Two of these are the most favourable usage conditions: an empty cabin moving upwards or a full cabin moving downwards. In lifts with a traditional power supply, the energy generated under the conditions described above is wasted as heat by so-called braking resistors. This produces no benefits in terms of energy savings and consequent cost savings. As the energy required for the normal operation of our lifts is provided by batteries, under the conditions described above, these batteries accumulate any energy generated. This results in cost savings as the energy produced free of charge is used later to power the lift. Our lifts also have the option of being powered by a photovoltaic panel (SOL-ARE technology), which makes the lift even more efficient and increasingly independent from the national grid.
The batteries are monitored by a system that checks their status and stops the lift when the batteries are not sufficiently charged.
If this happens during a run, the system ends the run and remains stopped at that floor while it recharges. Then, when the batteries are sufficiently charged, the system starts working normally again. This type of situation occurs only very rarely because the batteries are sized according to a number of insertions per hour that the lift is unlikely to ever perform.
The main power supply for our lifts is based on the use of lead-acid batteries, which are widely used in the automotive world. They guarantee a long service life, low costs and excellent performance. Like all batteries, they have a lifecycle, which is long and can be replaced for a limited cost.
With the batteries charged and under optimal usage conditions, up to 60 runs can be made. This ensures efficient service even during a blackout.
Our SOL-ARE technology optimises battery charging using the solar energy produced by a photovoltaic panel. The system automatically selects the ideal energy source (grid or photovoltaic panel) in order to minimize the amount of energy drawn from the grid, right down to a consumption level of ZERO.
Yes, all our lifts feature soft arrivals and departures.
The silence achieved by our ARE SMART-POWER technology gives lift passengers a pleasant sensation of comfort throughout every run.
