Energy-saving electric home lift

Mangusta

Launched 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

0,15 m/s Movement speed
130W Power consumption
We are not just lift manufacturers, we are the pioneers in Italy of electric lifts with high energy efficiency, low environmental impact and customisable finishes that can installed in any kind of environment without sacrificing functionality or safety.
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 consumption

    SOL-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 store

    The 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 appliance

    Thanks 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.

Brochure

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. As soon as the batteries are sufficiently charged, the system starts working normally again. We can assure the customer that 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.

Normally, the electronics for reading the load sensor are positioned on the cabin roof, so that is where the calibration procedure has to be conducted. This means the technician has to take care not to include their own weight in the measurements. It also means that for any information about the weight in the cabin you always have to climb onto the roof. In our system, on the other hand, the load sensor reading electronics are still positioned on the cabin roof, but they are connected to the control panel. So, all operations (calibrations, cabin weight readings, fault diagnoses etc.) are carried out from our Smart-Chopper board, i.e. the control panel.

With the batteries charged and under optimal usage conditions, up to 60 runs can be made. This ensures efficient service even during a blackout.

The main power supply for our ARE systems 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.

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.
