Introduction
0.1 General
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the market
players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organizations, market surveillance, etc.).
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e.g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate in the drafting
process of this document.
The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
When provisions of this type C standard are different from 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.
0.2 General notes
0.2.1 The object of this document is to define safety rules related to service lifts with a view to
safeguarding persons and objects against the risk of accidents associated with the normal use and
1)
maintenance operation of service lifts .
a) Persons to be safeguarded:
1) users;
2) maintenance and inspection personnel;
3) persons in the immediate surrounding area the service lift well and the machinery space(s).
1)
Within CEN/TC 10 an interpretation committee has been established to answer questions about the spirit in
which the experts have drafted the various clauses of this standard. All such interpretations are published within
CEN/TS 81-11 until incorporated by amendment into the standards concerned.
6
---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 81-30:2022
prEN 81-30:2022 (E)
b) Property to be safeguarded:
1) loads in the carrier;
2) components of the service lift installation;
3) building in which the service lift is installed;
4) the immediate surrounding area of the service lift installation.
0.2.2 A study has been made of the various possible hazards with service lifts; see Annex I.
0.2.3 When the weight, size and/or shape of components 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 be attached.
0.3 Principles
0.3.1 This document does not repeat all the general technical rules applicable to every electrical,
mechanical, or building construction including the protection of building elements against fire.
It has, however, seemed necessary to establish certain requirements of good construction, either because
they are peculiar to service lift manufacture or because in the case of service lift utilization the
requirements can be more stringent than elsewhere.
0.3.2 This document addresses the Essential Health and Safety Requirements of the Annex I of
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, and additionally states minimum rules for the installation of service
lifts into buildings/constructions. In some countries there can be 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 room,
for their access doors dimensions and for protection from fire.
0.3.3 As far as possible the standard sets out only the requirements that materials and equipment have
to meet in the interests of safe operation of service lifts.
0.4 Assumptions
0.4.1 Relevant risks have been considered of each component that may be incorporated in a complete
service lift installation.
Rules have been drawn up accordingly.
0.4.2 Negotiations have been made between the customer and the manufacturer, or the manufacturer’s
authorized representative, and agreement reached about:
a) the intended use of the service lift;
b) environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, exposure to sun or wind, snow, corrosive
atmosphere;

oSIST prEN 81-30:2022
prEN 81-30:2022 (E)
c) civil engineering problems (for example, building regulations);
d) other aspects related to the place of installation, e.g. presence of unsupervised children;
e) the type and mass of any handling devices intended to be used.
See also Annex H (information about access and maintenance with ladders).
0.4.3 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 sound quality;
d) free of defects;
e) free from harmful materials, e.g. asbestos.
0.4.4 Components, and where applicable well and machine room, are kept in good repair and working
order, so that the required dimensions remain fulfilled despite wear.
