Emergency Rescue: Guardian of Life
In daily life, elevators often stop running suddenly due to various reasons (such as power failure, line aging, etc.). When passengers in the elevator face sudden difficulties, panic and helplessness often follow. At this time, the role of the backup power supply is particularly critical. It can start quickly and provide the necessary power for the elevator control system, so that the elevator can move smoothly to the nearest floor and open the car door, thereby sending the trapped passengers out safely. This process not only greatly reduces the psychological pressure of passengers, but more importantly, it effectively avoids health problems and even life-threatening situations that may be caused by being trapped for a long time. The rapid response capability of the backup power supply wins precious time for emergency rescue work and is a solid backing for the safety of passengers' lives.

Safety Guarantee: A Solid Line of Defense to Prevent Accidents
As a means of transportation in a closed space, the safety of the passenger  elevator is of vital importance. In the event of a failure of the main power supply, without the support of the backup power supply, the elevator may lose control and experience extreme situations such as free fall and abnormal acceleration, which will greatly increase the risk of injury to passengers. The intervention of the backup power supply can effectively prevent such accidents. It can maintain the basic control functions of the elevator, ensure that the elevator remains stable in an emergency, and prevent the elevator from falling out of control or moving abnormally, thereby greatly reducing the probability of accidents. In addition, the backup power supply can also activate the emergency lighting and communication systems in the elevator, provide passengers with necessary lighting conditions, and maintain contact with the outside world, further enhancing the passengers' sense of security in emergency situations.

Convenient evacuation: an accelerator to improve escape efficiency
In natural disasters or emergencies such as fires and earthquakes, elevators often become one of the important ways for people in high-rise buildings to evacuate quickly. However, in these emergency situations, the main power supply is likely to be interrupted by external factors, making the elevator unusable. At this time, the role of the backup power supply is highlighted again. It can ensure that the elevator can be quickly started after the emergency evacuation order is issued, even if the main power supply fails, and transport the elevator to a safe floor to help passengers evacuate quickly. This capability not only improves the efficiency of escape and reduces the risk of casualties, but also provides a more convenient channel for fire rescue personnel, helping them to reach the accident site faster and launch rescue operations.
