and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
When provisions of this type C standard are different to those, which are stated in type A or B standards, the
provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines
that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
0.1.2 The following are to be safeguarded:
a) persons such as:
1) operators and users;
2) maintenance personnel;
3) persons in the near vicinity, outside the accessible goods only lift well, the machine room/spaces
and pulley room/spaces (if any);
b) objects such as components of the accessible goods only lift installation and load inside the load
carrying unit;
c) building parts (see 0.2.5) such as those parts of the building which are directly associated with the
accessible goods only lift.
0.2 Principles
0.2.1 In drawing up this European Standard the following have been used:
0.2.2 This European Standard does not repeat all the general technical rules applicable to every electrical,
mechanical, or building construction including the protection of building elements against fire.
0.2.3 This European Standard addresses the essential safety requirements of the Machinery Directive
including those related to the well and machinery spaces, excluding any other requirement for the building.
There can be in some countries regulations for the construction of buildings, etc,. which cannot be ignored.
Typical clauses affected by this are those defining minimum values for the height of the machine and pulley
rooms and for their access doors dimensions.
0.2.4 When the weight, size and/or shape of components of the machinery prevent them from being
moved by hand, they are either:
a) fitted with attachments for lifting gear; or
b) designed so that they can be fitted with such attachments (e.g. by means of threaded holes); or
c) shaped in such a way that standard lifting gear can easily be attached.
0.2.5 Negotiations have been made between the parties involved and decisions have been taken,
particularly about:
a) the intended use of the accessible goods only lift and its limits;
b) environmental conditions, including surrounding lighting;
c) compliance of the civil engineering with the requirements of this European Standard for those parts of
the installation, which belong to the building and are not provided by the manufacturer.
0.3 Assumptions
0.3.1 Risks have been considered for each component that may be incorporated in a complete accessible
goods only lift installation.
Rules have been drawn up accordingly to mitigate such risks.
0.3.2 Components are:
a) designed in accordance with usual engineering practice and calculation codes, taking into account all
failure modes;
b) of sound mechanical and electrical construction;
c) made of materials with adequate strength and of suitable quality. Harmful materials, such as asbestos,
are not used.
0.3.3 The machine is kept in good repair and working order, so that the initial safety level is maintained.
0.3.4 The IP code of electrical components is selected in relation with the intended use where not
specified in this European Standard in accordance with EN 60529.
0.3.5 By design of the load bearing elements, a safe operation of the accessible goods only lift is assured
for loads ranging from 0 % to 100 % of the rated load, including provisions for taking into account possible
overloading.
0.3.6 The requirements of this European Standard regarding electric safety devices are such that the
possibility of a failure of an electric safety device complying with all the requirements of the standard needs
not to be taken into consideration.
0.3.7 A user may, in certain cases, make one imprudent act. The possibility of two simultaneous acts of
imprudence and/or the abuse of instructions for use is not considered.
0.3.8 If in the course of maintenance work a safety device, normally not accessible to the user, is
deliberately neutralised, safe operation of the accessible goods only lift is no longer assured, but
compensatory measures will be taken to ensure safety of all persons in conformity with maintenance
instructions according to EN 13015.
It is assumed that maintenance personnel are instructed and work according to the instructions.
0.3.9 For horizontal forces, the following have been used:
a) static force: minimum 300 N;
b) force resulting from impact: minimum 1 000 N,
reflecting the values that one person can exert.
Higher values need to be taken into account where powered or hand powered means for loading and
unloading are intended to be used (see 0.2.5).
0.3.10 With the exception of the items listed below, a mechanical device built according to good practice
and the requirements of the standard will not deteriorate to a point of creating hazard without the possibility
of detection as long as regular and periodical examinations, tests and maintenance are carried out according
to the instruction manual delivered with the installation.
The following mechanical failures, where applicable, are considered in the requirements:
a) breakage of the suspension;
b) uncontrolled slipping of the ropes on the traction sheave;
c) breakage and slackening of all linkage by auxiliary ropes, chains and belts;
d) failure of one of the mechanical components of the electromechanical brake which takes part in the
application of the braking action on the drum or disk;
e) failure of a component associated with the main drive elements and the traction sheave;
f) rupture in the hydraulic system (jack excluded).
0.3.11 When the speed of the load carrying unit is linked to the electrical frequency of the mains up to the
moment of application of the mechanical brake, the speed is assumed not to exceed 115 % of the rated
speed or a corresponding fractional speed.
0.3.12 When the device according to 5.2.14 is provided, the organisation within the building, where the
accessible goods only lift is installed, is such that it can respond effectively to emergency calls without undue
delay (see 0.2.5).
0.3.13 Means of access are provided for the hoisting of heavy equipment (see 0.2.5).
0.3.14 To ensure the correct functioning of the equipment in the machinery spaces, the ambient
temperature in these spaces is assumed to be maintained between + 5 °C and + 40 °C (see EN 60204-1).
When the temperature exceeds these limits, appropriate means are used to compensate the difference, such
as heating or cooling (see 0.2.5).
0.3.15 Accessible goods only lifts are used only by authorised and instructed users. This can be achieved
by the way of key operated control buttons, key card operated control or similar devices or the accessible
goods only lifts are installed in an area where only trained persons have access (see 0.2.5).
0.3.16 The fixing system of guards, which have to be removed during maintenance and inspection, remains
attached to the guard or to the equipment, when the guard is removed.
0.3.17 The location of the accessible goods only lift to be such that users using the accessible goods only
lift have means conveniently available to them, to access the different landing levels served, either a
staircase or a means for the transportation of persons, within a reasonable distance.
1 Scope
1.1 This European Standard applies to new electric accessible goods only lifts with traction or positive
drive and new hydraulic accessible goods only lifts, permanently installed in restricted areas and/or only
used by authorised and instructed persons (users), serving fixed and permanent landing levels, having a
load carrying unit made of a single load carrying area, designed for the transportation of goods only, moving
along a fixed path (e.g. scissor lifts, lifts with guide rails) and inclined not more than 15° to the vertical, with
rated speed not exceeding 1 m/s.
This European Standard covers accessible goods only lifts with rated load exceeding 300 kg and not
intended to move persons.
This standard deals with all significant hazards, hazardous situations and events with the exception of those
listed in 1.3 below, relevant to accessible goods only lifts, when they are used as intended and under the
conditions foreseen by the manufacturer (see Clause 4).
1.2 For the purpose of this European Standard, a goods only lift is regarded as accessible where one of
the following conditions is satisfied:
a) floor area of the load carrying unit is greater than 1,0 m ;
b) depth of the load carrying unit is greater than 1,0 m;
c) height of the load carrying unit is greater than 1,20 m.
In case of a platform, it is considered accessible when the height of the landing doors is more than 1,20 m.
1.3 Two types of accessible goods only lifts are addressed:
a) Type A, where the intended use is bound to the following two simultaneous conditions:
1) maximum rated speed: 0,30 m/s;
2) maximum travelling height: 12 m;
b) Type B, where one of the conditions mentioned above is not fulfilled.
1.4 This European Standard does not give the requirements to be met in special cases (potentially
explosive atmosphere, extreme climate conditions, seismic conditions, transporting dangerous goods, etc.).
1.5 This standard is not applicable to:
a) accessible goods only lifts:
1) with more than one machine;
2) where loading and unloading is automated or the load carrying unit floor is fitted with mobile devices
(e.g. rollers) for loading and unloading purposes;
3) intended to carry bulk loads (such as loose sand, gravel, etc.);
b) lifting appliances, such as appliances with more than one load carrying unit, skips, goods only lifts for
construction sites, for underground applications, mine winding gear, goods only lifts on seagoing vessels
and mobile offshore units, machinery intended to move performers during artistic performances, goods
only lifts specially designed and constructed for research purposes for temporary use in laboratories,
goods only lifts specially designed and constructed for military or police purposes;
c) installations where the inclination of the fixed course of movement to the vertical exceeds 15°;
d) safety during transport, installation, repairs and dismantling of accessible goods only lifts;
e) the use of translucent material for the walls of the well and machinery spaces, for the load carrying unit
and for the landing doors with the exception of their vision panels;
f) the use of programmable electronic systems in safety related applications for lifts (PESSRAL).
However, this European Standard may usefully be taken as guidance where relevant.
1.6 This European Standard is not applicable to accessible goods only lifts which were manufactured
before the date of its publication as EN.
1.7 The significant hazards, hazardous situations and events dealt with by this standard are those listed in
EN ISO 14121-1:2007, Annex A (see Clause 4) with the exception of:
noise;
vibration;
fire;
any form of radiation except EMC.
