Otis clone or just a very common button style?

Having looked at an official Otis Elevators illuminated button, I got a couple of similar ones from AliExpress to compare the construction.
These are visually nice buttons and have a solid feel due to the stainless steel actuator, albeit that it's pressing a fairly standard tactile switch. The 24V LED circuit restricts their use in lower voltage circuits. (Elevators and other industrial equipment tend to use 24V DC control circuit power.)
The connector and pinout is different to the Otis one, and bizarrely the three wire version versus the four wire one just has two pins shorted with a blob of solder as a common +24V.
The other oddity is the plastic retainer being a snap fit onto the stainless steel button. I wonder if those plastic parts crack much.
Here's the link I got the buttons from. Note that there are many other sellers of similar buttons.

You should try putting the steel button in the freezer for a few hours. Then you can soak the plastic bit that's supposed to go around it in some hot water for a few minutes. Take the steel out of the freezer, the plastic out of the water, dry off the plastic, and see if you can get it back on the button.

Im currently working on a hospital that is not yet open but will be this year. All of the elevators are supplied and installed by OTIS. They break down at least twice a week currently; when I say break down, they will stall between floors with people trapped inside until an OTIS engineer comes to site and fixes it. My only thought is, what happens when it's patients getting trapped in lifts for hours at a time. Embarrassing.

​@@tin2001 Or maybe the local OTIS people are just not good at their job . Really need someone else cleaning up their work to get the failure rate down to safe levels for urgent patient transport . Get someone to convert the failure rate to lives lost per year at planned hospital capacity and frequency of patient movements that can survive being stuck in an elevator for 1, 2, 3, 4 hours . It's all a numbers game, just like the probability of the nurse call buttons at bedsides failing or the probability that a random unconscious trauma patient is allergic to the standard anesthetic drug .

Being from the Pittsburgh area in the US, I'm more familiar with Westinghouse style elevator buttons. These were just translucent plastic buttons, usually protruding from the panel, with their designation printed on the face of the button (up, down, floor number, etc) . Upon pressing the button, you would be rewarded with a nonconformal *smush*, and the button would glow a soft orange, indicating selection. Presumably these were either hall effect switches, or simply the button pressing some open sprung contacts together (unlikely, but possibly), and the light seemed to be provided by a neon lamp.
@UpLateGeek
@UpLateGeek 2 месяца назад
The card readers in the lifts at work have about a half second delay when you scan your card before the buttons work, so you scan your card and hit the button three or four times before it actually registers. Then it's only active for about a second, so if you're too quick and don't make sure it's registered your press, by the time you realise, it's no longer active and you need to re-scan, but most likely you'll press the button a bunch while trying to get it working. So basically every successful press requires 3 or 4 actual presses, which effectively makes the lifetime of the buttons a third or a quarter of what they're rated for. And yes, I've seen them replace many of the buttons in the lifts over the years. Some because they've just worn out, some because people have got annoyed and hit the button and broken it. You know what would fix it? If the beep of the card reader happened when the buttons were activated, not half a second beforehand. People naturally wait until the heard the beep before pressing the button, so not only would it work as expected, people wouldn't get angry about missing the press window and smash the buttons.

Cherry or C&K or someone used to make piezo buttons with various lighting options, from a center dot to a ring around the periphery, etc. I got a few tucked away somewhere which look almost exactly like that. That was ages and ages ago. Digital output, would "blip" a quarter-second or so when touched. Actual piezo, not the usual touch-switch like you'd make from a single JFET or anything. Could get 'em O-ring sealed for mounting, too, if you wanted truly waterproof.

Heh, I think he should take a look at Chinese PLC clones next. Mitsubushi clones in what is clearly a Siemens case... The Mitsubushi (FX1N) clones seems to be signficant cheaper than Siemens clones... I guess some of the old production hardware got on the grey market... In my opinion they are probably okay for learning and hobby projects, but not something you would ship in a commercial project.

Otis is going to levy a fine against you for pressing too many buttons. Longmont Potion Castle did a whole report on it.

If you do press too many of the floor buttons on some elevators they will cancel all the calls.

Released on Patreon as soon as it was made and then others jumped the queue because this video will not be popular due to being a bit "niche".
