Hitachi receives 40 High-Speed Elevators order from Unity Group

Hitachi Building Systems and Hitachi Lift India, a subsidiary of Hitachi Ltd. which operates sales, installation, and maintenance of elevators and escalators in India, have received an order for 40 units of high-speed elevators from Unity Group for the first time for their super-luxurious residential complex ‘The Amaryllis’ phase 2 in Delhi, India.

These 40 units are high-speed elevators with a rated speed of 180 m/min or 150 m/min and have an earthquake emergency operation system that detects an earthquake and stops the elevator quickly on the closest floor so that passengers can get out without being stuck in it. These features provide users with safety, security, and comfort.

The Amaryllis is a 160,000 square-meter residential project that has 5 phases. Phase 2 consists of 10 high-rise residential towers to be completed in 2023. The 10 towers will be 143 meters tall with 35 floors.

The 20th floors of towers are connected and have a kilometer long skywalk with a jogging track. It also has facilities such as splash pool, coffee shop, library, yoga zone, skating rink, gym, and so on. The Amaryllis is set to be the most iconic high-rise residential development in Delhi and is very adjacent to commercial places and sightseeing places such as Connaught Place and Red Fort.
