[TG97] RARE KONE Elevator - The Phoenix Hotel, Yogyakarta, ID

Описание: • Credit goes to TG97Elevators for the photos and video.

This is an extra video of The Phoenix Yogyakarta's rare Indonesian KONE elevator, recorded by TG97Elevators just a year ago which I didn't publish it as I've already filmed this elevator by myself. However, since today is Independence Day (17 August) I decided to publish it as a rather special video to commemorate this special day. In fact, this was filmed just two days before Independence Day. You can still watch my own video of this elevator which I've filmed in late August 2023:    • RARE KONE Elevator - The Phoenix Hotel, Yo...  

As I've stated on my own video, this is another very RARE Indonesian KONE elevator with design based of late model of Indolift elevators in the 1990s, shortly before KONE acquired Indolift in 1995. I believe this elevator was manufactured at their Sidoarjo factory in East Java, with the motor, controller and other parts imported from Finland. The design is basically identical to Indolift except that it carries the KONE name as it was made after the merger.

It seems that the controller has been replaced as it doesn't show any traits of KONE TMS (Traffic Master System), such as rejecting calls from the opposite direction and floor number doesn't instantly changed after the doors closed. I'm highly sure it used to run on a KONE TMS600 controller just like many other Indonesian KONE elevators elsewhere in the country. Other than that, the elevator is still in pristine condition and rides very well based on my own experience.

This elevator is situated at the extension building behind the original 1918 "heritage" building. Just walk past the boring generic (a former Indolift, mod by APG) elevator and follow the corridor until you see the elevator on the right. There's also a hidden service elevator in there which look very similar but with its buttons already replaced with KONE KDS.
