The pneumatic vacuum elevator is made up by three main parts:

Vertical Duct: A clear, selfssupporting tube built out of specially designed sections. The walls of this tube are made of curved sheets of polycarbonate. The tube itself is made by modular lengths that fit among them easily. The doors ar made of the same material, they are airtight and provided with safety magnetic locks. The roof of the tube, made of steel, ensures air tight closures and has suction valves and air inlets.

The car: That travels inside the tube is made of transparent polycarbonate and is mounted on a steel structure. On the roof, there is an air tight joint that ensures normal pressure and air conditions for the passenger. An anchoring system that activates on reaching the indicated floor provides exact stops and locks the car mechanically. 

The suction assembly: It can be built and placed in different ways, either on the same tube that holds the car or separately (split) at distances longer than 10 m. In all the cases, the motor is monophase.
