General Information
Overview
EN 627:1995 (adopted as national variants such as SIST EN 627:1997) is a CEN European Standard that specifies the fundamental characteristics of data logging and monitoring systems for lift, escalator and passenger conveyor installations. The standard defines the scope and essential attributes that such monitoring solutions should provide to support safe operation, maintenance and performance tracking of vertical and horizontal passenger transport equipment.
Key topics
The standard concentrates on high‑level characteristics rather than prescriptive design details. Key technical topics covered or implied by the scope include:
- Data logging requirements - the types of operational and event data to be captured by monitoring systems
- Monitoring functions - continuous supervision, event detection and status reporting for lifts, escalators and conveyors
- Data integrity and traceability - timestamping and reliable recording to support diagnostics and maintenance history
- Storage and retention - considerations for local and remote storage of logged data
- Interfaces and communication - how monitoring systems connect with control equipment, maintenance tools and building management systems
- Alarm and reporting mechanisms - notification pathways for faults, abnormal conditions and service messages
- Reliability and availability - fundamental expectations for system robustness in passenger transport environments
Note: EN 627 defines fundamental characteristics; implementation details (protocols, storage formats, numeric thresholds) are handled by system designers and by complementary standards or manufacturer documentation.
Applications
EN 627 is intended to guide the effective specification and use of monitoring and data‑logging systems across multiple practical contexts:
- Writing procurement and technical specifications for lift/escalator monitoring systems
- Designing factory- or site-level logging solutions integrated with building management and remote service platforms
- Defining data retention and reporting practices for maintenance and safety audits
- Enabling remote diagnostics and fault analysis to reduce downtime and improve response times
- Supporting asset management and lifecycle planning for passenger transport equipment
Who should use this standard
- Lift, escalator and passenger conveyor manufacturers and system integrators
- Building owners, facility managers and asset operators
- Maintenance and service providers, inspection bodies and safety engineers
- Software developers and BMS integrators implementing monitoring solutions
Related standards
EN 627 is part of the broader EN framework for lifts and escalators. When specifying or implementing monitoring systems, consult EN 627 together with applicable national adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 627) and other EN standards covering safety, installation and maintenance practices to ensure comprehensive compliance.
