Double Series 5 NELS! Otis Hydraulic Elevators - Pinnacle Point (Charlotte, NC)

These are 2 different Series 5 NEL's installed one year apart from one another in two different buildings.Show more

The first one is from 2004. It has the "Egg" Shaped Call Stations and has the Arrow Indication below the floor indicator. It is a bit low on oil, though not as major.

The other one is installed in Late 2005. Unlike the first one, this one has basic flat call stations most Standard Series 6's use much later in the fixture's lifespan, but has the Black Panel COP on the inside. Only difference is that there is no arrow indication, just the floor indicator. This one has a rough start up. Both of these are very cool finds, but they need some TLC in terms of operation.
