Integrierte Steuerungseinheit, Arkel, ARCODE 4C50A, 400V 50A: Integrated Lift Control Unit (ILCU)
The Arkel ARCODE 4C50A is a 400V 50A Integrated Lift Control Unit (ILCU) that signifies a key innovation in vertical transportation technology. ARCODE fundamentally redesigns traditional control systems by merging the VVVF inverter (motor drive), the core control board, and the evacuation/rescue system into a single, synchronized, and space-saving unit.
This integrated design approach ensures full synchronization between the drive and the controller, eliminating delays and communication complexities common in non-integrated systems.
Why ARCODE? Essential Advantages for Buyers
The integrated nature of the ARCODE 4C50A offers several tangible benefits vital to elevator installers, modernization specialists, and building owners:
- Superior Performance: Direct Landing Technology The system employs “Direct Landing” technology, dynamically calculating the travel curve to eliminate the slow creeping phase required by standard VVVF systems. This results in remarkably smooth stopping comfort and shorter overall travel times, significantly increasing building traffic efficiency.
- Compactness for MRL Applications By combining three separate critical systems (drive, controller, rescue) into a single body, ARCODE offers a highly compact design. This makes it an ideal solution for Machine-Room-Less (MRL) projects, where space for the control panel is extremely limited.
- Universal Motor Compatibility The ARCODE is compatible with both Synchronous (Gearless) and Asynchronous (Geared) lift machines. This flexibility is critical for modernization projects, allowing owners to upgrade the control unit first (using an ENCI Incremental Encoder Card for older motors) and defer motor replacement until later.
- Simplified Commissioning The integration facilitates advanced digital commissioning tools like Auto-Tune and Digital Shaft Learning. These automated processes drastically reduce the need for time-consuming manual measurement and adjustment of shaft switches during installation.

ARCODE Ecosystem and Support
The ARCODE system operates as a modular architecture connected via the robust CANbus industrial communication protocol, minimizing cable requirements and installation time.
Key accessory units often required for a complete system include:
- ENCA / ENCI Encoder Cards (Codes 1002919 / 1002920): Used to interface with Absolute (Gearless) or Incremental (Geared) encoders, ensuring precise car positioning.
- AREM Handheld Terminal (Code 1002402): The essential tool for on-site installation, parameter adjustment, diagnostic checks, and system software updates.
- ARKEL ARLIFT IoT System (Code 1003571): This cloud connection unit allows for remote monitoring of failures, live control status screens, and predictive maintenance features, providing an added layer of system reliability.
Choosing the ARCODE 4C50A means investing not just in a control unit, but in a complete technology platform manufactured by Arkel, a company dedicated exclusively to the elevator industry since 1998.
