This is a list of elevator fixtures that have been used by Elevators Pty. Ltd., or commonly known as EPL KONE.
1970s
These fixtures consists of white rounded square buttons which simply illuminates, and analog floor indicators with illuminating numbers. A variant of these buttons with a surface-mounted clear plastic frame was also available.
1980s
Square buttons
In the early 1980s, EPL used fixtures consists of square buttons (with either white or black frame) with illuminating halo. Early installs used analogue resin indicators; later indicators in some late models were green LED dot-matrix ones which resembled Montgomery Vector's LED font.
Black buttons
Starting in the late 1980s, most EPL KONE elevators were using black round buttons with illuminating halo (either green, orange, or red) and raised side. Floor indicators were normally green LED dot-matrix which resembles Montgomery Vector display, though other colours such as blue or red were available.
Kone continued to use this design of fixtures after EPL's dissolution for a select few installs, although such fixtures installed under the Kone name are exceptionally rare and normally in conjunction with their Traffic Master System until the late 1990s. The latest install known to use these fixtures was installed in 1996.[1] Floor indicators used with TMS were either the yellow Kone ELD indicator or the Novel Elements LED dot matrix indicator.
Synergy 2000 indicators
These are green (or rarely, yellow) monochrome floor indicators with time and date displayed.
Novel Elements and Salient
Some late model of EPL KONE elevators were using Kone's Novel Elements fixtures for the call buttons (either original or modernized) or Salient. Some lifts were even using Kone's yellow ELD indicator.
