Overview
MonoSpace DX is the current series of Kone MonoSpace machine room less elevator models sold in Indonesia since 2021, replacing the previous conventional Kone E/N/S MonoSpace variant. It is part of the Kone DX Class elevator series which has been on sale since November 2019 and incorporates cloud connectivity and based on Kone APIs.
It uses the Kone KCE control, which is a predecessor of Kone's LCE controller. The difference with the LCE-controlled Kone elevators is that the DX Class elevators use a different controller module. According to Kone, the control parameter can be configured using a console via Android or PC devices. All Kone MonoSpace DX elevators use the new NMX EcoDisc series motors, which were launched in the mid 2010s.
Like the previous variant, the MonoSpace DX is divided into three different variants based on the application:
- E MonoSpace DX: Cost-effective variant aimed for small to medium sized residential and basic commercial buildings. The maximum capacity is 1000 kilograms.
- N MonoSpace DX: Mid-range variant, designed for small to medium sized residential buildings, shopping centers, hotels and other buildings with moderate building traffic. It bas a maximum capacity of 1600 kilograms.
- S MonoSpace DX: High end variant, designed mainly for medium to large sized buildings such as shopping centers, office buildings, airports, transit facilities, convention centers and other buildings with high demand traffic. Its maximum capacity is 2500 kilograms.
