A 90m cable-supported Ferris Wheel with 42 spherical cabins for 252 riders. Suited to large parks and mixed-use developments seeking a high-capacity observation ride.
Figures below are the design values for this model. Site-specific engineering is confirmed per project.
The 90m Steel Cable-Supported Ferris Wheel is a high-capacity observation ride for large parks and mixed-use developments. It combines a cable-supported wheel with 42 spherical cabins, each seating six passengers, giving a capacity of 252 people per cycle. The ride turns once every 18.2 minutes at a rim speed of about 0.24 m/s, so boarding and alighting are calm and predictable. The total height is 89.6 m, with a running height of 87.7 m and a wheel diameter of 78 m.
The structure uses a cable-supported wheel to manage loads and reduce visual mass. The design life is 25 years. Cabins are spherical and arranged around the 86.1 m rotation diameter. The drive system and controls are selected for the site and market, and all engineering details are confirmed during project design. The ride is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project.
The equipment projection is 86 m by 30 m, and the foundation footprint is 41 m by 31 m. These dimensions help planners assess available land and layout. The ride requires a power supply of 3N+PE 380/220V 50Hz, with an installed capacity of 190kVA excluding decorative lighting. Site preparation, foundation design, and installation planning are carried out per project. The foundation and anchor details are confirmed by the project engineer to suit local ground conditions.
At 18.2 minutes per revolution, the ride offers a long observation period with low rim speed. Operators can plan boarding and alighting around the cycle time. The 252-person capacity per cycle supports steady throughput. Power demand is 190kVA excluding lighting, so the electrical supply should be sized accordingly. Maintenance schedules and spare parts planning are set out in the operations manual. Training for operating and maintenance staff is provided as part of project delivery. For procurement, confirm local standards, site conditions, and delivery schedule with the manufacturer.
The questions park developers ask most about this ride — answered without the sales language.
The ride has 42 spherical cabins, each seating six passengers, for a total of 252 people per cycle. Each revolution takes 18.2 minutes, so capacity per hour depends on loading and unloading time. Plan queue and boarding areas for groups of this size.
The ride requires a 3N+PE 380/220V 50Hz supply. Installed capacity is 190kVA excluding decorative lighting. Confirm the final electrical design with the project engineer to allow for lighting and ancillary loads.
The equipment projection is 86 m by 30 m, and the foundation footprint is 41 m by 31 m. These figures help with site planning. Actual clearance and access requirements should be confirmed during project design to suit local regulations and site conditions.

Every ZhipaoRides product is engineered with redundant, fail-safe systems that meet or exceed international amusement ride safety standards. From electrical interlocks to structural redundancy, we leave nothing to chance.
Forced electrical interlocking prevents any unauthorized or unsafe startup. The system requires all safety conditions to be met before operation can begin, eliminating human-error risks.
Three independent door opening safeguards — mechanical lock, electrical sensor, and control system verification — eliminate passenger entrapment risk under all operating conditions.
Dual independent braking mechanisms with fail-safe engagement ensure controlled deceleration even in the event of primary system failure, meeting Class A ride standards.
Continuous sensor-based monitoring of vibration, temperature, and load distribution provides instant anomaly detection and automatic shutdown when parameters exceed safe thresholds.
Integrated auxiliary drive and manual release mechanisms enable safe passenger evacuation from any position, including during power outages or extreme weather conditions.
Non-destructive testing at every production stage — from raw material to final assembly — ensures structural integrity backed by 25-year design life certification.
Our safety systems undergo rigorous third-party testing and certification to meet or exceed GB 8408 (Chinese national standard) and EN 13814 (European standard) requirements. Each ride is equipped with multiple redundant safety mechanisms, ensuring passenger protection at all times. From the factory floor to the final installation site, our engineering team conducts comprehensive safety audits, load tests, and operational simulations before any ride enters service.
