Elevator IoT starts with cegard/Smart

08/21/2025
Installing our latest IoT-enabling light curtain is your first step towards smart elevators. The cegard/Smart allows you to activate remote monitoring functionalities – right away or as soon as you’re ready. Prepare now to take your elevator asset management to the next level!

Since 70% of elevator breakdowns are caused by the door, that is where our IoT-enabling hardware goes. The light curtain cegard/Smart is equipped with additional sensors to collect data on elevator health and traffic round the clock. This data is then processed and visualized in our cloud-based IoT platform CEDES Elevate to provide maintenance advisory and valuable insights into elevator usage.   

cegard/Smart is a good fit for both new installations and modernization projects. Thanks to multiple output types integrated into a single light curtain, it can be paired with various controllers to match the desired application, including: 

  • Remote health monitoring 
  • Emergency communications 
  • 3D door safeguarding 
  • Object recognition  
  • People counting 

You can also choose to equip cegard/Smart with the InfoLight Kit – LED stripes indicating the status of the door – for increased passenger safety in high-traffic buildings such as hospitals or hotels.
