I’ve ridden all of those elevators except these. Also when ur at the Marquis check out the 2 floor hydraulic elevator at the Pulser lounge because it has a VERY EPIC motor.
I hope they fix the low on oil issue soon because it’s terrible for the pump. Ok to the reply I visited here a month of so ago and yeah they turned on the fan and replaced the pump for a 7 year old elevator... that’s not long lasting!
@@KaedeAnimation Yeah I know that they replaced the pumps (yep it has 2 pumps; on for each hydraulic ram.) also I want to see the motor room for this thing. Apparently they replaced the pumps because on of the motors died. Also I watch a video of when this thing was brand new and the motor was very quiet. Pretty weird.
Epic motor! It’s a bit low on oil, but I’m pretty sure they put some in shortly after the video. That motor is music to my ears and is harmonic. The International elevator at Dillard’s at MacArthur Mall has a similar sounding motor, but it’s slower and less harmonic.
Not earrape but music to my ears! (For the reply: I know. I saw another video and that’s tapas but dry powered is more suitable. I will, go there soon and film it on QE Elevators Lol.
Hey Andrew Reams! This is so insane for a hydraulic elevator. I can't believe this hydraulic elevator went up very high. It's a SKYdraulic elevator. The motor is EPIC!!!! Nice elevator
You could definitely tell this elevator was added on at a later time because even though its attached to the building it was most likely installed as an express elevator to get to the top floor
@@PNWElevatorAviation Not this one though, this was clearly a custom job. A standard MRL elevator would’ve likely been cheaper because they wouldn’t have to customize as much.
Dry-type and submersible refer to the types of pump used. Nearly all modern hydraulic passenger elevators use submersible pumps, where the pump and motor are mounted inside the oil tank.
@@ElevatorDude B-flat usually has a higher pitch if it’s dry-powered and is usually only on old lifts. In Europe and Asia, G and F-sharp are only submersible and most countries only have those pitches.
@@DieselDucy I have a video that I haven't published yet. It's an exterior scenic elevator at the abandoned Bungy Tower near Circus Circus. I found it by complete accident when exploring Circus Circus!
Jack Hartman yea, i wish i could tho, but we are under social distancing right now so thats not gonna happen for a while, and there is a possibility its already modernized :/
I remember at the shopping center I go to they had a glass elevator that wasnt as interesting as this but it was wierd because it had a mix of differant buttons like montgomery vector innovation and it was very badly beat up but kone got a hold of it and they put their buttons on it but I wish mei got a hold of it instead oh well
But unfortuatelly it does break down alot more often now I dont think its the modernization that causes it though I think its just very poorly maintained
Wow, it seems like finding a bad lift in Atlanta is the equivalent of pulling teeth with only bare hands! Atlanta for lift enthusiasts is the equivalent of heaven with the angels !
@@flightlevel3608 tbh i think it's worse. it is still pretty epic, but nowhere near as epic as before (also they've started turning the fan on in the elevator now...)

yep
Riding this thing is on my bucket list along with the Marriott Marquis, Hyatt, and Hilton
MissouriElevators cool

You & I both man!!
Also don’t forget the 18-30 (motor room at 33) and the 1-17 (elevator motor room at 20) is usually unlocked. Be sure to check that out.
Even though they are all over the place here, I love MEI elevators! They make great elevators.
Yeah, like that mod they did at the Pioneer Endicott Building.
I still like Otis elevators, but this one is epic!
True!
You can never stay away from this beauty
Honestly, this has gotta be the best B-Flat motor I've ever heard on an MEI.
Gotta thank Steve at MEI for that.
I hope they fix the low on oil issue soon because it’s terrible for the pump.
Ok to the reply I visited here a month of so ago and yeah they turned on the fan and replaced the pump for a 7 year old elevator... that’s not long lasting!
@@qeelevators2960 too late, they changed the motor already
@@KaedeAnimation Yeah I know that they replaced the pumps (yep it has 2 pumps; on for each hydraulic ram.) also I want to see the motor room for this thing. Apparently they replaced the pumps because on of the motors died. Also I watch a video of when this thing was brand new and the motor was very quiet. Pretty weird.
Sadly the motor has since been replaced.
This is hands-down one of the best Hydraulic elevators on TH-cam! That motor is just awesome!
Best hydraulic elevator motor I have ever heard in my life I love the elevator so much I would love to visit that one day
Yes
Awesome SKYdraulic elevator! I’ll be sure to film it when I head down to Atlanta this summer.
Absolutely Epic MOTOR!!! SO UNBELIEVABLE!
But it changed :( :(

This company has grown tremendously in recent years, especially with the contract to service the elevators and escalators in Simon malls.
We all know and LOVE this Elevator!!
Sounds like 3 different motors in one. That's pretty awesome
MEI is one of my favourite elevator brands. They are amazing!
Mainly the hydros. MEI is what generic brands NEED to be.
0:45, 3:15
Turn your volume up, or you're gonna miss the epic motor!
Not earrape but music to my ears! (For the reply: I know. I saw another video and that’s tapas but dry powered is more suitable. I will, go there soon and film it on QE Elevators Lol.
& it's got a NEW Motor
This is the best b flat motor thank you
I LOVE this motor!
@@DieselDucy unfortunately it was replaced with a dry-powered motor.
Wow, this is a nice sounding elevator (better when going up)! 👍 🔊
Indeed it is!
Hey Andrew Reams! This is so insane for a hydraulic elevator. I can't believe this hydraulic elevator went up very high. It's a SKYdraulic elevator. The motor is EPIC!!!! Nice elevator
yeah name it a skydraulic.
Nice to see you get a good take of this elevator! The T1 really did not do well in this elevator in 2009.
You could definitely tell this elevator was added on at a later time because even though its attached to the building it was most likely installed as an express elevator to get to the top floor
Yep. Definitely added on
1980's mowreys motors sound epic too, this one is a little more epic
This beats the Oxford Building.
I’d give this MEI elevator 10 thumbs up for this incredible motor
Dam, that is some angry sounding hydraulic there...... nice sound :)
stanmarsh14 Is this a hotel?
Dante Trainmaster Are you blind? Read the title.
But Motor's Replaced :( :(
Love reading the comments here, with the musical pitch indicating what type of machinery :D
Best motor in the world!
It’s epic.
Tony Family But it's gone & changed
I remember seeing videos of this elevator years ago from musicfreakcc and you
Jowevator 3219 have you uploaded videos yet in 2019
I have also. My child hood & then September 2019, finally got to see it IN PERSON (Like you saw)
Pop Pav Ofc he has. If you wanna see his latest videos, Sub to him
It sounds like there's two pumps, the sound is harmonick!
Because there is
that motor sounds familiar...YEP. the motor sound was used in ET on roblox for the sky high schindler 300As
because this is a Minnesota Elevator I think they should install a Reflex on this thing
I was expecting a telescopic piston along with the roped 2:1 multiplication.
I love that sound
I'm curious as to why a traction elevator wasn't installed here.
matte5 me too
Expense
Yea. Traction Elevators are EXPENSIVE!! Hydro's are way cheaper
@@PNWElevatorAviation Not this one though, this was clearly a custom job. A standard MRL elevator would’ve likely been cheaper because they wouldn’t have to customize as much.
matte5 True
Best motor on TH-cam
Awesome motor
I LOVE the motor!
Andrew,Can you do the Schindler HT at Deming Way near Costco please?If ya can that would be awesome.thank you!!!!!
Sounds just like the St Louis galleria food court except this is louder.
Hey STL elevators I subscribed to you when diesel ducy meet you
Would love seeing a few machine rooms
The machine for this elevator is huge. like 8 feet tall 12 feet long and 5 feet wide
It is A Great Epic Motor! KEEP IT UP!
What is the difference between the different types of hydraulic elevators? I've heard of dry powered and submersible but how are they different?
Dry-type and submersible refer to the types of pump used. Nearly all modern hydraulic passenger elevators use submersible pumps, where the pump and motor are mounted inside the oil tank.
How can you tell which one is being used while you're riding the elevator?
The motor pitch: B-Flat is usually submersible, while A, A-Flat, B, C, D, D-Flat, E, E-Flat, F, & F-Sharp are usually dry-powered.
@@ElevatorDude B-flat usually has a higher pitch if it’s dry-powered and is usually only on old lifts. In Europe and Asia, G and F-sharp are only submersible and most countries only have those pitches.
And yeah, G is also dry-powered in North America.
just as much as they need fluid they also need that reflex on it like on that demo glass elevator so that it will level way faster
totally!
@@DieselDucy Kone installed and maintains it so that would be unlikely. I totally agree its not complex either.
However does the reflex work on big elevators like this or is it more for the small ones
There is an inground hydraulic elevator in Las Vegas that I think travels about 200 ft high, but it is abandoned and will probably never run again.
where was it? is there a video?
@@DieselDucy
I have a video that I haven't published yet. It's an exterior scenic elevator at the abandoned Bungy Tower near Circus Circus. I found it by complete accident when exploring Circus Circus!
@@upanddownadventures Please let me know when you post it! I really want to see it!.
@@DieselDucy
The video is up now!
This has to be MEI'S best installation!
It has a NEW Motor now :( :(
i love that elevator
This sounds similar to a Dover Impulse i filmed somewhere near Radium, I will have to go Film it again and post it to youtube :D
Oh crap. That’s gonna be good.
Jack Hartman yea, i wish i could tho, but we are under social distancing right now so thats not gonna happen for a while, and there is a possibility its already modernized :/
This elevator is obviously famous.
Yep.
nice elevator
I remember at the shopping center I go to they had a glass elevator that wasnt as interesting as this but it was wierd because it had a mix of differant buttons like montgomery vector innovation and it was very badly beat up but kone got a hold of it and they put their buttons on it but I wish mei got a hold of it instead oh well
But unfortuatelly it does break down alot more often now I dont think its the modernization that causes it though I think its just very poorly maintained
How many stories high is it at R level? Amazing motor but could use a little extra hydraulic fluid
Woah
Actually 12
The doors have been Glass for a long time. They just put new flooring in too
The new flooring looks so nice tho... the carpet must get dirty with the heavy usage
I just realized it’s a roped hydraulic elevator. You can see the piston out the window.
yeah, it had an epic motor though :)
@@DieselDucy late reply lol.
When can you film me a thyssenKrupp synergy because I love them
PR Elevators yes if I can find some
Thanks
All elevators should be like this! A glass ceiling would be even cooler.
Doesn't Minnesota Elevator only serve the state of Minnesota? I think this is a Kone, because the main elevators are Kone Ecodisc.
They have many offices outside the state of Minnesota. www.meielevatorsolutions.com/
JoshCraver9000 I rode a Minnesota hydraulic freight elevator at a Dicks Sporting Goods in Kansas City
No. They are all over the United States. Their headquarters is in Mankato, MN though if that's where your coming from.
JoshCraver9000 No I've riden one in Buffalo, New York at the Walden Galleria Macy's stores.
There also in Canada.
How Many Stories Is That.
13
@@DieselDucy Really
@@DieselDucy What part of Atlanta
@@DieselDucy How do you know.
@@DieselDucy Next time you’re there try to video the machine room outside.
Music to my ears
That motor sounds awesome!:)
How high does it rise?
125feet in the air
13 stories.
DieselDucy 12 Actually
It's 12 Compared to the Main Elevators
Dang I wish the couch was still there.
Wow, sweet 👌
*THREE THUMBS UP MINNESOTA ELEVATOR!*
This has an epic motor! What kind of place is whisky blue?
Epic motor! And very high.
Make a tour of that place
The Motor just changed so it's MORE EPIC!!
I don't like the new motor
MissouriElevators Yeah. The old Submersible was better. But the NEW one makes this thing Faster
@@PNWElevatorAviation They added a silencer too. Dry powered means they could fit 2 massive Colfax screw pumps.
By the way this elevator is almost a decade old
I saw the one with the reflex system
Nice motor!
nice motor
The tank of fluid must be as big as that lift/elevator to have it go that high.
EPIC!!!
This is an epic motor
But changed :( :(
Wow, it seems like finding a bad lift in Atlanta is the equivalent of pulling teeth with only bare hands! Atlanta for lift enthusiasts is the equivalent of heaven with the angels !
I live in Atlanta
Trust me I’ve found some trash ones in atl too
I wonder when it was installed because it doesnt look that old
What does the L in the elevator mean? (The button)
Lobby.
Frankie L. Thank you!
a bit low on oil?
What name is it? And the model?
It is just a hydraulic elevator
Why doesn't it have a floor pass chime?
Not sure
Nice Video
Epic Motor Elevator
It was
@@DieselDucyit will be missed
Why were you so tired at the beginning?
This thing is so tall!
It is
Submersible or dry powered
In this video submersible.
Imagine the size of the tank on this thing...
Sounds just like the St. Louis Galleria.
Level R is actually floor 13.
Unfortunately, it was broken when I was there :(
The Elevator World It was probably getting the Motor Changed & Replaced since I was there yesterday
This have roped hydraulic
Yes, as well as multiplied. The Cemco/Otis elevators at the Newseum are direct hydraulic and are the highest direct hydraulic elevators in the world.
It travels 125 ft up
Epic
0:47
3:18
I've seen one in roblox
IDK what's wrong with the motor, but I know someone had REPLACED
It did get Replaced when I went there & as well as on my Video
It did get replaced. The original submersible pump wasn't good enough, so they replaced it with a dry powered pump
@@nicodo123 Do you know if it sounds better or worse with a dry-powered pump?
@@flightlevel3608 tbh i think it's worse. it is still pretty epic, but nowhere near as epic as before (also they've started turning the fan on in the elevator now...)
Unfortunately, the motor has been replaced.
What happened
@@therandommemecat7738 The motor(s) were replaced.
Dante Trainmaster Yep when I went :( :( As well as said on my video
I actually know that place in a certain roblox map
MEI is pretty good
There's a water pump
Screw pump made by Colfax meant for AW-32 hydraulic oil
Who else noticed that this is a roped hydraulic
America, you are in charge of refueling this elevator with your oil, only takes like uhhhh one 5 gallon bucket of your oil?
Lol
Wait this one it looks like roblox ones
Awesome
