European foreword
This document (prEN 12016:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 10 “Lifts,
escalators and moving walks”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12016:2013.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annexes ZA, ZB and ZC, which are an integral part
of this document.
The test levels and the performance criteria which are given in this European Standard reflect the fact
that lifts, escalators and moving walks, when in use, consist generally of self-contained apparatus (e.g.
machine room, car, etc.).

Introduction
This document is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
This document has been prepared to provide one means of conforming to the requirements of the
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive, the Lifts Directive and the Machinery Directive. The
requirements of this European Standard have been specified so as to ensure an adequate level of
electromagnetic immunity for most cases.
The apparatus concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations or hazardous events
are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or type-
B standards, the requirements of this type C standard take precedence over the requirements of the
other standards for apparatus that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this
type C standard.
Test levels and immunity performance criteria are defined for:
— apparatus which are safety components or are used in conjunction with safety components, (safety
circuits);
— apparatus used in general function circuits.
The test levels and requirements are given on the basis that the apparatus, generally, is connected to a
low voltage system.
The requirements for safety circuits provide one means of demonstrating conformity with the essential
health and safety requirements of the Lifts Directive and the Machinery Directive with regard to
immunity against electromagnetic phenomena.
Due to the size of an installed lift, it becomes impracticable to test the total assembly either in a test
laboratory or in situ where the uncontrolled environment may also influence the test procedures and
results. This applies also to measurements within the car. Similar considerations regarding dimensions
apply equally to the testing of escalators and moving walks.
Rational to the revision of the standard EN 12016:1998
a) Important changes
The Scope excludes severe electromagnetic environments and apparatus already proven to be in
conformity with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.
The term “installation” has been changed to “system”. This is due to the fact that official interpretation
defines that fixed installations are not covered by the conformity assessment procedures for CE
marking and declaration of conformity according to the EMC Directive. The scope of the standard is
applicable to the apparatus and assembly of apparatus of lifts and escalators and assembly into systems.
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field above 500 MHz, these are extended to
cover the digital mobile telephone services up to 1960 MHz.
New requirements for surge testing on safety circuits.
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field regarding safety devices as defined by the
Lifts Directive and mobile telephones or radio-transmitters as a result of a risk assessment. It is
assumed that mobile telephones and radio-transmitters are not used at frequencies up to 166 MHz near
safety circuits of equipment covered by the scope of this standard.
Higher requirements on several environmental phenomena considering the progress on EMC
technology and the results of the risk assessment.

---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 12016:2018
prEN 12016:2018 (E)
New requirements have been introduced for immunity to mains power supply voltage interruptions
and voltage dips.
b) Environmental issues
Lifts, escalators and moving walks are systems whose component apparatus/assembly of apparatus are
distributed (and some of which move) throughout the building. The definition in EMC terms of the use
of the building (residential or industrial) cannot be predetermined or assumed to be fixed. Therefore, to
cover requirements in all cases, no differentiation between environments has been made and a single
set of limits has been maintained.
Severe electromagnetic environments have not been considered. Examples of these are: radio-
transmitter stations, railways and metros, heavy industrial plant, electricity power stations. Additional
tests and immunity measures may need to be taken on apparatus to be used in these environments.
It is assumed that no ports connected to safety circuit only are rated at currents greater than 100 A.
Rational to the revision of the standard EN 12016:2004+A1:2008
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field to cover the digital mobile telephone
services and wireless communication systems up to 2 655 MHz.
Performance criteria requirements for radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment
as defined by Directive 1999/5/EC used in combined apparatus/assembly of apparatus.
Rational to the revision of the standard EN 12016:2013
Relationship between this European Standard and EN 81-20.
Relationship between this European Standard and the essential requirements of EU Directive
2014/30/EU.
Relationship between this European Standard and the essential requirements of Directive 2006/42/EC.
Relationship between this European Standard and the essential requirements of Directive 2014/33/EU.

prEN 12016:2018 (E)
4.3 It is not always possible to measure the immunity levels for every function of the
apparatus/assembly of apparatus. In such cases, the most critical period of operation shall be selected.
4.4 The test shall be carried out at a single set of environmental conditions within the specified
operating range of temperature, humidity, air pressure and supply voltage, unless otherwise indicated
in the standards referred to in 4.1.
4.5 Tests shall be carried out in well-defined and reproducible conditions for each test.
4.6 To facilitate testing, assemblies of apparatus can be tested together. However where apparatus
contain safety circuits, the tests shall prove that the safety circuits comply with the immunity
requirements for all circuits and specific requirements for safety circuits.
This does not imply that those parts of the whole assembly, which are general function circuits, have to
comply with the safety circuit requirements.
4.7 Tests shall be carried out at the following ports of the apparatus or assembly of apparatus where
they exist:
— enclosure port (see Table 1);
— ports for signal and control lines not crossing system boundaries (see Table 2);
— ports for monitoring and remote alarm systems crossing the system boundaries (see Table 3);
— input and output DC power ports with current rating ≤ 100 A (see Table 4);
— input and output DC power ports with current rating > 100 A (see Table 5);
— input and output A.C. power ports with current rating at ≤ 100 A per phase (see Table 6);
— input and output A.C. power ports with current rating > 100 A per phase (see Table 7).
4.8 The configuration and mode of operation during measurement shall be recorded.
4.9 Test values shall be applied as specified in Table 1 to Table 7, and the performance criteria in 6.2
shall be met as appropriate. The tests shall be carried out individually as single tests and in sequence.
EN 55024:2010 shall be applied to telecommunication ports as defined in EN 55022:2010.
5 Applicability of tests
5.1 The application of tests for evaluation of immunity depends on the type of apparatus/assembly of
apparatus, its configuration, ports, technology and operating conditions.
5.2 It might be determined from consideration of the electrical characteristics and usage of a
particular apparatus/assembly of apparatus that some of the tests are inappropriate and therefore
unnecessary. In such a case, the decision and justification not to test shall be recorded.
5.3 Where deviations from the test methods specified in 4.1 are applied, such deviations shall be
justified and recorded.

6 Evaluation of tests results
6.1 Introduction
The special requirements of the product family make it necessary to define precise criteria for the
evaluation of the immunity test results.
The basic safety requirements of the system (lift, escalator or moving walk) are specified in EN 81-20
and EN 115-1. For this reason, a performance criterion derived from the immunity levels of
EN 61000-6-1:2007 is deemed sufficient for most functions. However, for safety circuits, where any
malfunction that may produce an unsafe operating mode cannot be tolerated, higher immunity levels
derived from EN 61000-6-2:2005 are stipulated.
If radio equipment is used in combined apparatus/assembly of apparatus, uncontrolled operation of a
transmitter during testing is not allowed.
6.2 Performance criteria
A functional description of the apparatus or assembly of apparatus and a definition of performance
criteria, during or as a consequence of testing shall be recorded.
The definition of performance criteria shall be based on:
Performance criterion A: The apparatus/assembly of apparatus shall continue to operate as intended.
No degradation of performance or loss of function is allowed below a performance level specified by its
manufacturer, when the apparatus or assembly of apparatus is used as intended. In some cases, the
performance level may be replaced by a permissible loss of performance. If the minimum performance
level or the permissible performance loss is not specified by the manufacturer then either of these may
be derived from the product description and documentation and what the user may reasonably expect
from the apparatus or assembly of apparatus if used as intended.
Performance criterion B: The apparatus/assembly of apparatus shall continue to operate as intended
after the test. No degradation of performance or loss of function is allowed below a performance level
specified by its manufacturer, when the apparatus or assembly of apparatus is used as intended. In
some cases the performance level may be replaced by a permissible loss of performance. During the
test, degradation of performance is however allowed. No change of actual operating state or stored data
is allowed. If the minimum performance level or the permissible performance loss is not specified by
the manufacturer then either of these may be derived from the product description and documentation
and what the user may reasonably expect from the apparatus or assembly of apparatus if used as
intended.
Performance criterion C: Temporary loss of function is permitted, provided the function is self-
recoverable or can be restored by the operation of the controls.
Performance criterion D: The apparatus/assembly of apparatus and the associated safety
component(s) shall continue to operate as intended. No degradation of performance or loss of function
is allowed other than a failure into a safe mode.
6.3 Enclosure ports of safety circuits
Where a risk assessment demonstrates that the location of a safety circuit may allow a mobile
telephone or emergency services radio-transmitter to be placed directly beside or on the device, then
the enclosure port of the device shall be implemented so that the performance criterion D is satisfied in
these conditions.

c
For the relationship between test levels, protection distances and radiated powers of mobile telephones, EN 61000-4-3:2006.
d
Field strength may be limited by distance on site, e.g. 200 mm for mobile phones. Therefore, if no RF shielding barrier is used then a physical barrier shall maintain a distance of 200 mm
between the safety circuit and potential sources of perturbation.
e
If safety circuits are not in a grounded metal box, at least 8 mm of distance between box and circuitry shall be applied to avoid on site damage or other type of insulation shall be used.
f
If radio equipment as defined by Directive 1999/5/EC is used in apparatus/assembly of apparatus, the exclusion band defined by the harmonised standards applies for that specific radio
equipment.
