Appendix I. Basic health and safety requirements

Preliminary remarks

1.
Obligations under the basic health and safety requirements apply only where the corresponding risk exists for the particular lift or safety component when used as intended by the installer or manufacturer.

2.
The basic health and safety requirements of these regulations is mandatory. It is possible, however, that the purpose of the requirements, can not be achieved at the present of the art. In such cases, the lift or safety component as far as possible be designed and constructed to meet these requirements.

3.
The manufacturer and installer is obliged to make a risk analysis in order to identify all risks associated with their products and they must then design and construct them on the basis of this analysis.

1.
General

1.1
Application of Directive 2006/42 / EC

If the relevant risk exists and is not dealt with in this Annex, they receive basic health and safety requirements of Annex I to Directive 2006/42 / EC1 application. The basic health and safety requirements in paragraph. 1.1.2 of Annex I to Directive 2006/42 / EC applies anyway.

1.2
Lift chair


The car must be designed and constructed so that its surface area and strength corresponding to the maximum number of persons and the nominal load the installer set for lift.
When a lift is intended for the transport of persons, and if its aim permit, the car be designed and constructed so that the structure does not impede or prevent access and use by persons with disabilities and so it is possible to make any appropriate adjustments to facilitate their use of it.

1.3
Carrying Aids

Heisstolens carriers, fasteners and connectors should be selected and designed in such a way that they ensure a sufficiently high safety in general and reduces to a minimum the risk that the car falls, having regard to the conditions of use, the materials used and the production conditions.
If using rope or chain to the suspension of the car, shall be at least two independent ropes or chains, each with its own anchorage system. Such ropes shall have no joints or splices unless this is necessary to attach or form a loop.

1.4
Load control (including control over velocity)

1.4.1
The lift shall be designed, constructed and installed so that normal start prevented if the nominal load is exceeded.

1.4.2
The lift must be fitted with a speed limiter.

These requirements do not apply to lifts in which the drive system design prevents overspeed.

1.4.3
Fast lifts must be equipped with a device that controls and limits the speed.

1.4.4
Elevators with pulley must be so constructed that bæremidlenes stability on disc secured.

1.5
machine

1.5.1
All passenger lifts must have their own hoisting machine. This requirement does not apply to lifts in which the counterweights are replaced by another lift chair.

1.5.2
The installer must ensure that the lift machine and related facilities are not accessible except for maintenance and in emergencies.

1.6
Actuating mechanisms

1.6.1
Operation Installations in lifts intended for use by persons with disabilities shall have a design and location that make them suitable for this purpose.

1.6.2
Operation Device The operation shall be clearly indicated.

1.6.3
A group of lifts may be shared or interconnected call systems.

1.6.4
Electrical equipment must be installed and connected in such a way that

A)
there may be some confusion with circuits which do not have direct connection with the lift,

B)
power supply can be connected when the lift is charged

C)
lift movements are dependent on electrical safety devices that are placed in an independent electrical safety circuit,

2.2
The lift shall be designed and constructed so that the risk of crushing when the car is in one of its extreme positions, prevented.

This is achieved by means of free space or refuge beyond the extreme positions of each.
For the Member States to give prior approval, particularly in existing buildings where it is impossible to meet this requirement, however, this risk in specific cases be avoided through other appropriate means.

2.3
The landings at the inputs and outputs of the car must be equipped with landing doors with a mechanical resistance which is adequate for the conditions of use lift is intended for.

An interlocking device during normal operation prevent

A)
that the car starts to move, whether it is activated intentionally or not, unless all landing doors are shut and locked,

that floor door is opened when the car is still in motion and not on par with a defined stop.

Adjustment movements with the doors open shall be possible in specific zones, provided that this occurs at a controlled rate.

3.
Risk of persons sided

3.1
The car shall be completely enclosed with walls full height including fitted floor and ceiling, with the exception of ventilation apertures, and with doors full height. These doors must be designed and installed so that the car can not move except for adjusting the movements referred to in paragraph. 2.3, third paragraph, unless the doors are closed, and so that it stops if the doors are opened.


Heisstolens doors must remain closed and interlocked if the lift stops between two floors, when there is danger of falling between the car and the shaft or if there is no shaft.

3.2
In case of power outage or component failure the lift have devices to prevent free fall or uncontrolled movement of the car.

Device which prevents free fall of the car must be independent of heisstolens carriers.
The facility will be able to stop the car at the nominal load and at maximum speed set by the installer. Any stop caused by this device must not cause deceleration harmful to the people in the elevator regardless of load conditions.

3.3
It should be mounted buffers between the bottom of the elevator shaft and heisstolens floor.

In this case, the free space referred to in paragraph. 2.2 measured with the buffers totally compressed.
This requirement does not apply to lifts in which the car can not enter the free space referred to in paragraph. 2.2 because of the drive system design.

3.4
Lifts must be so designed and constructed that it is not possible to put them in motion if the device provided for in paragraph. 3.2 is not in operating position.

4.
Other risk

4.1
Landing doors and chair door or both doors shall, if they are moved mechanically, be equipped with a device to prevent the risk of breakage when they move.

4.7
Lift cars must be designed and constructed so that passengers are assured adequate ventilation, also in case of longer stops.

4.8
The car should be adequately lit whenever in use or when a door opened and there must also be emergency lighting.

4.9
The means of communication referred to in paragraph. 4.5 and the emergency lighting referred to in paragraph. 4.8 shall be designed and constructed so that they work even without the normal power supply. Their operation will be long enough that the rescue procedure can be carried out normally.

4.10
Those of elevator control circuits that can be used in case of fire must be designed and manufactured so that lifts may be prevented from stopping at certain levels and allow for priority control of the lift for rescuers.

5.
marking

5.1
In addition to the minimum information required for any machine pursuant to paragraph. 1.7.3 of Annex I to Directive 2006/42 / EC, each lift chair have a visible sign with clear information about the rated load in kilograms and the maximum permitted number of passengers as the elevator can take.

5.2
