Safety of escalators and moving walks - Part 1: Construction and installation
1.1 This standard is applicable for new escalators and moving walks (pallet or belt type) as defined in Clause 3.
This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to escalators and moving walks when they are used as intended and under conditions of misuse which are reasonably foreseeable by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
1.2 This standard does not deal with hazards arising from seismic activities.
1.3 This document is not applicable to escalators and moving walks which were manufactured before the date of its publication as EN. It is, however, recommended that existing installations be adapted to this standard.
Sicherheit von Fahrtreppen und Fahrsteigen - Teil 1: Konstruktion und Einbau
1.1 Diese Norm gilt für neue Fahrtreppen und Fahrsteige (Paletten- oder Gurtkonstruktion) wie im Abschnitt 3 angegeben.
Diese Norm behandelt alle für Fahrtreppen und Fahrsteige signifikanten Gefährdungen, Gefährdungs-situationen und Gefährdungsereignisse (wie in Abschnitt 4 angegeben), wenn sie bestimmungsgemäß und unter Bedingungen, die vom Hersteller als Fehlanwendung vernünftigerweise vorhersehbar sind, verwendet werden.
1.2 Diese Norm behandelt keine Gefährdungen, die durch seismische Aktivitäten hervorgerufen werden.
1.3 Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für Fahrtreppen und Fahrsteige, die hergestellt wurden, bevor CEN dieses Dokument veröffentlichte. Es wird jedoch empfohlen, dass bestehende Anlagen an diese Norm angepasst werden.

Some individuals, in particular older people, might have more than one impairment. Some individuals are not able to use an escalator or moving walk independently and rely on assistance/support being provided by a companion. Furthermore some individuals can be encumbered by objects or be responsible for other persons, which can affect their mobility. The extent to which an individual is incapacitated by impairments and encumbrances often depends on the usability of products, facilities and the environment. The use of wheelchairs on escalators and moving walks can lead to dangerous situations which cannot be mitigated by machine designs and therefore should not be permitted. The use of lifts is the preferred method of vertical travel for most people with disabilities and in particular wheelchair users and persons w
