Very similar to post-1999 KONE KSS 220 in the US. Number display is the same, the tiny arrows come from Kone's dot-matrix indicator, the beep is exactly the same. Looking at it the KSS 220 was actually quite influential on most KONE fixtures in the 2000s, in and out of North America. There's even that rare European version of it.
@UCnYGtTTcGGKKMekiDgPBhFg Hmm... Series 220, I thought that when KONE dropped Montgomery from it's name in the US and updated the 220 they changed it to KSS 220 to be more close to the rest of their fixtures now all called KSS. And now that you mention, the indicator really looks like the Kone M, just a little bigger. Never made that connection before.
Yeah I noticed that. "*Series 220*" (I don't know why some American enthusiasts call them KSS 220 when in fact Series 220 was produced before the American KSS came out) appears to be based on the Sigma and Delta fixtures. One thing I also noticed is that the 7 segments Series 220 indicator in North America looks very similar to KONE's M-Series segments indicator, but without the triangle arrows. I'm not entirely sure where Series 220 came from. Whether it's trully an American invention, or a European invention and that the one used in North America is a modified version to meet ADA requirements, remains a mystery. Speaking of that misleading "KSS 220" term, we have KDS 220 fixtures in Asia which are basically a sister of the fancy KDS 330, featuring a more compact and simple look. It has nothing to do with KSS 220; KSS 220 is a misleading term thanks to whoever made it in the first place.
@Lívio Naves: Nah, KSS 220 is just a made-up term by American enthusiasts. It's an unofficial name. KONE Americas referred those fixtures as Series 220 as the official name on their old websites and brochures. Even this particular KONE hydraulic brochure says Series 220: elevbrochurearchive.files.wordpress.com/2018/12/kone-hh-mx-series-hydraulic-elevators.pdf
Those were installed after Toshiba formed a joint venture with KONE as a mean of developing their own MRL elevator, which came out as SPACEL, which is based on KONE's MonoSpace. Those KONEs were probably installed as a gesture of goodwill by KONE. I heard that one of them has already been replaced into Mitsubishi AXIEZ.
@@idl3k_elev : Yeah, but not all Toei Oedo stations have KONE elevators. Since 13 out of the 38 stations opened during the 90s, those 13 stations have standard OTIS elevators, similar to the ones at Sentral Senayan. Proof: ruclips.net/video/806bUDNzqMs/видео.html (the elevator at Higarikaoka station, one of the 13 stations of the Oedo Line that opened in the 90s)
Oddly enough, KONE claimed on their 1997 report that Tokyo Subway ordered 55 MonoSpace elevators: elevbrochurearchive.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/kone-corporation-annual-report-1997.pdf There is another old KONE report which mentions about the KONE-Toshiba alliances.

Reminds me to the ones installed at Toei Oedo Line stations.
Those were installed after Toshiba formed a joint venture with KONE as a mean of developing their own MRL elevator, which came out as SPACEL, which is based on KONE's MonoSpace. Those KONEs were probably installed as a gesture of goodwill by KONE.

@@idl3k_elev : Probably the others were installed outside Toei Oedo stations, or probably because one station has more than one KONE elevators.
