Support does not end when the equipment is delivered.
01 · Maintenance & Technical Support
Keep the Equipment Understandable Throughout Its Service Life
Over years of operation, customers may need technical information, component identification, replacement parts, configuration records or support for additional equipment. JAFITA keeps that discussion tied to the actual elevator system.
02 · Start with the Equipment Identity
A Useful Request Names the Elevator Clearly
Please provide any available information that ties the enquiry to the installed system. If the equipment was previously supplied through JAFITA, include the original project or order reference.
- Elevator manufacturer
- Equipment model or series
- Project reference
- Installation year
- Rated load and speed
- Number of stops
- Controller / traction / door models
- Original part number
- Nameplates and drawings
- Photos or videos of the issue
The clearer the equipment identity, the faster the technical discussion can begin.
03 · Technical Support for Existing Equipment
Review Tied to the Installed Configuration
Depending on the equipment and agreed scope, support may involve product information, drawings, component matching, compatibility review or repeat-equipment reference.
-
Product Information
Technical data, product configuration and previously confirmed equipment information.
-
Drawings & Documentation
Relevant drawings, electrical information, manuals or equipment references where available.
-
Component Identification
Matching a replacement requirement to the original component specification.
-
Compatibility Review
Checking model, voltage, dimensions, connector arrangement or interface before a replacement is confirmed.
-
Repeat Equipment
Using previously confirmed project information when additional units or related products are required.
Not appearance
04 · Records, Not Guesswork
Maintenance Gets Harder When Identity Is Lost
Two parts can look almost identical while using different voltages, communication protocols, connectors, encoders, mounting dimensions, software versions or compatible equipment series.
JAFITA recommends keeping equipment records, nameplates, drawings and major component information after installation.
- Voltages
- Communication protocols
- Connectors
- Encoders
- Mounting dimensions
- Software versions
- Compatible series
Match components by specification — not by appearance.
05 · Replacement-Part Support
Enquiries Across Elevator and Escalator Systems
JAFITA supports replacement-part enquiries for elevator and escalator systems. For the most accurate review, provide the original part number and nameplate.
- Traction machines
- Controllers and cabinets
- Inverters and drives
- Door operators
- Car-door and landing-door parts
- COP and LOP units
- Guide and suspension parts
- Safety-related components
- Escalator components
- Other maintenance parts
06 · Support for International Customers
Records Save Time When Teams Are in Different Countries
JAFITA has been engaged in elevator export business since 2008. When the equipment, installation site and supply team are in different countries, accurate records save significant time during troubleshooting and replacement-part sourcing.
-
What to include
Project country, site contact, equipment identification, a clear written description, photos or video, and required quantity if a part is needed.
-
Local responsibility
When the issue involves local installation, inspection or regulatory requirements, the responsible local elevator contractor should remain part of the process.
07 · What We Can Help Clarify
Four Questions Before a Replacement Is Confirmed
The first task is to understand whether the request is a correct part, a possible alternative, a documented configuration, or a broader modernization discussion.

Is the Requested Part Correct?
We review the information provided and compare available technical details before confirming a replacement route.

Is an Alternative Available?
Where an exact original component is not available, a possible alternative must be evaluated for compatibility before substitution.

Can the Original Configuration Be Referenced?
For previous JAFITA projects, available records may help support repeat requirements or component identification.

Maintenance or Modernization?
If several major systems are aging or obsolete, a broader modernization review may be more practical than replacing parts repeatedly.
08 · Support for Long-Term Cooperation
Make the Next Requirement Easier Than the First
For distributors, elevator companies and repeat buyers, long-term technical continuity matters. A previously confirmed configuration can help with later work.
- Repeat orders
- Additional units
- Spare parts
- Matching components
- Matching finishes
- Documentation requests
- OEM follow-up
09 · Need Technical Support?
Send the Equipment Information You Already Have
If you do not know the exact component name, send clear images of the original equipment and its identification labels.
- Project country
- Elevator model
- Current issue
- Nameplate
- Photos or video
