Safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts - Basics and interpretations - Part 11: Interpretations related to EN 81 family of standards

This Technical Specification is a collection of interpretations related to the EN 81 family of standards (see CEN/TR 81-10:2008). As second issue, this document collects interpretations to EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 and EN 81-73:2005.
Interpretations to other standards of the EN 81 family will be added when they are available.
Interpretations aim to improve the understanding of the clause(s) they are referring to and by that facilitating common understanding between manufacturers, lift installers, notified bodies, inspection bodies and national authorities.
Interpretations do not have the same status as the standards to which they are related. However, the application of interpretations should give to the interested parties confidence that the relevant standard has not been wrongly applied.

Varnostna pravila za konstruiranje in vgradnjo dvigal (liftov) - Osnove in razlaga - 11. del: Razlaga v zvezi s standardi družine EN 81

Ta tehnična specifikacija je zbirka razlag, povezanih z družino standardov EN 81 (glej CEN/TR 81-10:2008). V drugi izdaji tega dokumenta so zbrane razlage za EN 81-1:1998, EN 81-2:1998, EN 81-28:2003, EN 81-58:2003, EN 81-70:2003, EN 81-72:2003 in EN 81-73:2005.
Razlage drugih standardov družine EN 81 se bodo dodajale, ko bodo na voljo.
Razlage so namenjene boljšemu razumevanju točk, na katere se sklicujejo, s čimer se poveča splošno razumevanje med proizvajalci, monterji dvigal, priglašenimi organi, nadzornimi organi in nacionalnimi organi.
Razlage nimajo enakega statusa kot standardi, s katerimi so povezane. Vendar bi uporaba razlag morala zainteresiranim stranem dati zaupanje, da ustrezen standard ni bil napačno uporabljen.

Introduction
Standards reflect the consensus of the best European expertise and are prepared with highest care. Product
standards cannot be formulated in such a way that they describe all possible technical solutions and therefore
exclude all uncertainties regarding the understanding of the required provisions. On the other hand technology
is in a permanent evolution, the progress of which cannot be incorporated into standards quickly enough.
Interpretations are a practical way to give:
a) answers to questions regarding the understanding of clauses in standards;
b) feedback to the CEN-Committee responsible for a standard about the practical experiences resulting from
the use of the standard;
c) guidance to further development and improvement of standards following:
1) experience, especially accidents and incidents;
2) progress in technology;
3) state of the art.
Information concerning the procedure developed by CEN/TC 10 concerning the elaboration of interpretations
is shown in CEN/TR 81-10.

Safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts - Examination and tests - Part 58: Landing doors fire resistance test
EN 81-58:2022

This document specifies the fire resistance requirements for lift landing doors which can be exposed to a fire from the landing side. This document applies to all types of lift landing doors used as a means of access to lifts in buildings and which are intended to provide a fire barrier to the spread of fire via the lift well.
It also specifies the method of testing and classification of fire resistance of lift landing doors. The test method is only valid for furnaces where the door is mounted in a vertical position. The test method allows for the measurement of integrity and if required the measurement of radiation and thermal insulation.
This document covers the hazard of fire spreading to the lift well during a defined period of time. The fire resistance requirements are expressed in terms of integrity (E), insulation (EI) and radiation (EW).
This document do not cover other technical requirements in addition to fire resistance requirements. The other technical requirements are specified in relevant product standards referring to this document.
This document refers to CO2 as means of tracing the propagation of fire. The document does not cover hazards due to emission of gasses.
This document is not applicable to lift landing doors installed in lifts before the date of its publication.

Builders' hoists for goods - Part 1: Hoists with accessible platforms
EN 12158-1:2021

1.1   This standard deals with power operated temporarily installed builders hoists (referred to as "hoists" in this standard) intended for use by persons who are permitted to enter sites of engineering and construction, serving landing levels, having a load carrying device:
-   designed for the transportation of goods only;
-   guided;
-   travelling vertically or along a path within 15 degrees max. of the vertical;
-   supported or sustained by drum driven wire rope, chain, rack and pinion, hydraulic jack (direct or indirect), or an expanding linkage mechanism;
-   where masts, when erected, may or may not require support from separate structures;
-   which permits the access of instructed persons during loading and unloading;
-   which are driven by appointed persons;
-   which permits, if necessary, during erection, dismantling, maintenance and inspection, the access and travel by persons who are competent and authorised.
1.2   The standard identifies hazards as listed in clause 4 which arise during the various phases in the life of such equipment and describes methods for the elimination or reduction of these hazards when used as intended by the manufacturer.
1.3   This European standard does not specify the additional requirements for:
-   operation in severe conditions (e.g. extreme climates, strong magnetic fields);
-   lightning protection;
-   operation subject to special rules (e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres);
-   electromagnetic compatibility (emission, immunity);

Safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts - Lifts for the transport of persons and goods - Part 22: Passenger and goods passenger lifts with inclined travel path
EN 81-22:2021

1.1   This document specifies the safety rules for the construction and installation of permanently installed new electric lifts, with traction or positive drive, serving defined landings levels, having a vehicle designed to convey passengers or passengers and loads, suspended by ropes or chains and travelling in a vertical plan along guide rails that are inclined at an angle of between 15° and 75° in relation to the horizontal.
1.2   In addition to the requirements of this document, supplementary requirements shall be considered in special cases (potentially explosive atmosphere, extreme climate conditions, seismic conditions, transporting dangerous goods, etc.).
1.3   This document does not cover:
a)   lifts with drives other than those stated in 1.1;
b)   installation of electric lifts in existing buildings to the extent that space does not permit;
c)   important modifications (see Annex E) to a lift installed before this standard is brought into application;
d)   lifting appliances, such as paternosters, mine lifts, theatrical lifts, appliances with automatic caging, skips, lifts and hoists for building and public works sites, ships' hoists, platforms for exploration or drilling at sea, construction and maintenance appliances;
e)   safety during transport, installation, repairs, and dismantling of lifts;
f)   lifts with rated speed ≤ 0,15 m/s.
However, this document may usefully be taken as a basis.
Noise is not dealt with in this document because it is not relevant to the safe use of the lift.
Vibrations are dealt with for electric parts only. Direct effects on human bodies are not considered as harmful.
1.4   This document does not specify the additional requirements necessary for the use of lifts in case of fire.
1.5   Taking into account the state of art, the scope of the present standard is limited as follows:
-   inclination: a variation in inclination is permitted for the guideway;
-   travel path: confined within the vertical plane;
-   maximum capacity of the car: 7 500 kg (100 passengers);
-   maximum rated speed (v): 4 m/s.
These both characteristics (capacity and speed) are linked by the relation given in the following Figure 1.

Safety of escalators and moving walks - Part 2: Rules for the improvement of safety of existing escalators and moving walks
EN 115-2:2021

This document gives rules for improving the safety of existing escalators and moving walks with the aim of reaching an equivalent level of safety to that of a newly installed escalator and moving walk by the application of today’s state of the art for safety.
NOTE   Due to situations such as the existing machine or building designs, it may not be possible in all cases to reach today’s state of the art for safety. Nevertheless the objective is to improve the level of safety wherever possible.
This document includes the improvement of safety of existing escalators and moving walks for:
a)   users;
b)   maintenance and inspection personnel;
c)   persons outside the escalator or moving walk (but in its immediate vicinity);
d)   authorised persons.
This document is not applicable to:
a)   safety during transport, installation, repairs and dismantling of escalators and moving walks;
b)   spiral escalators;
c)   accelerating moving walks.
However, this document can usefully be taken as a reference basis.
