JAFITA — Maintenance & Technical Support

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.

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.

Electronic assembly that must be checked for interface compatibility before substitution

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
