3
Aspects to be considered (1)

• Lift Directive 95/16/EC and Guide
• New to consider
• New border line (LD MD)
• Guide to Lift Directive (Draft available)
• Relevant Interpretations of Lift Directive

4
Aspects to be considered (2)

• Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
• Reconsider relevant new points related to ESRs
  1)
• First assessment (not confirmed)
• 1.1.2 Risks of installation and dismantling
• 1.1.5 Risks caused by falling over during
  transportation
• 1.4.2.1 Fixing of guards/protection (Fixing
  systems must remain attached to the guards or to
  the machinery when the guards are removed)
• 4.1.2.8.2 Access to the carrier (difference in
  level between the carrier and the landing being
  served shall not create a risk of tripping)
• 1) Some important alignments now under study
  might have to be done immediately

5
Aspects to be considered (3)

• EMC Directive 2004/108/EC
• Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC
• Environmental Directives
• (Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC)
• Applies indirectly for compliance with MD
  requirements
• Check relevant points related to ESRs (add
  requirements of special conditions if needed)

6
Aspects to be considered (4)

• ISO Standards
• Global Essential Safety Requirements GESR ISO/TS
  22559-1
• Global Safety Parameters GSP ISO/TS 22559-2
  (Draft)
• Comparison of Lift Standard ISO/TR11071-1 and -2
• New to consider
• Harmonize parameters of EN81-1/2 with ISO/TS
  22559-2
• Consider agreed upon points from ISO/TR11071-1
  and -2

7
Aspects to be considered (5)

• Reconsider building related issues
• To be considered, e.g.
• height of machine room, or
• access doors to machinery
• Other building related requirements/information
• by moving above requirements to informative Annex

8
Aspects to be considered (6)

• New Structure of the EN81 family CEN/TR 81-10
• Taken Resolution - Brussels 015/2006
• EN 81-1 and 2 will both be incorporated in
• EN 81-20 Passenger and goods passenger lifts, and
  in
• EN 81-50 Examinations, calculations and tests of
  lift components
• All interpretations will be incorporated in only
  one technical specification CEN/TS 81- 11
• Revision of CEN/TR 81-102003 accordingly

9
Aspects to be considered (7)

• Mayor new safety clauses
• Car stopping/levelling accuracy
• Unintended car movement with open doors
• Minimum requirements of fire classification to
  the car interior
• Leaving of the working area in the pit and car
  roof
• Mechanical strength of landing car doors
• Kinetic energy of the doors (in case of electric
  failure)
• Emergency electrical control (2 buttons?)
• Emergency lighting in the machinery spaces?
• etc
