A pneumatic flow controlling device is disclosed. The device includes a perforated component disposed on a bottom component coupled to a top surface of a pneumatic vacuum elevator. The perforated component includes multiple perforations to enable air circulation from outside to inside of the elevator cylinder. The device also includes a diaphragm component to expand and compress based on the air circulation. The device also includes a primary valve to allow an air supply to the elevator cylinder for controlling movement of an elevator cabin within a tubular pathway based on a control signal received from an elevator controller. The device also includes a secondary valve to allow the air supply to the elevator cylinder for dynamically varying speed of the elevator cabin at one or more landing positions.

An integrated noise suppression apparatus for a pneumatic vacuum elevator is provided. The apparatus includes an equipment compartment which includes a first partition unit vertically surrounding one or more electric motors configured to suck air from elevator cylinders and release the air into atmosphere, a bottom plate comprising a channel, wherein an pneumatic flow control unit placed on top of the bottom plate configured to allow air from the atmosphere into the elevator cylinders, a second partition unit, a silencer unit which includes a first layer placed configured to initiate the circulation of air, a second layer having a first set of partition strips, a third layer having a second set of partition strips, a fourth layer, a fifth layer having a third set of partition strips. A plurality of layers is arranged one above the other to enable the air to pass between the atmosphere and the tubular cylinder.
