Hello,

Having problem with a 1938 Rotary Model F2 Elevator. As one problem gets fixed another one pops up. Current issue is it not turning off solenoid valve once it trips top leveller. That cause elevator to hit the top and not level back to floor. It is using original GE Induction Motor (dated to 1938 based on serial number and inquiry to GE) turning a George D. Roper Corp pump. All equipment, except 2 Allen-Bradley Bulletin 700 Type N Relays, are original to install. Attached are images showing information about elevator. The solenoid not turning off is attached to the smaller valve in pictures. Any original drawings are ideas to help troubleshoot would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

Did call elevator company. They came out and said they tested everything and nothing was wrong. Problems continue and get worse. Trying to troubleshoot without wasting another $225 per hour.

Anybody else? Original schematics?

Thanks
