Safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts - Particular applications for passenger and goods passenger lifts - Part 73: Behaviour of lifts in the event of fire
This European Standard specifies the special provisions and safety rules to ensure the behaviour of lifts in the event of fire in a building, on the basis of a signal(s) from the fire alarm detection system to the lift(s) control system.
It applies to new passenger lifts and goods passenger lifts. However, it may be used as a basis to improve the safety of existing passenger and goods passenger lifts.
This standard gives various options for control of the lift in the event of a fire in a building.
This standard does not apply to:
3 lifts which remain in use in the event of fire e.g. firefighters' lifts as defined in EN 81-72:2003;
3 the use of lifts for the evacuation of a building and
3 a fire in the well.
Sicherheitsregeln für die Konstruktion und den Einbau von Aufzügen - Besondere Anwendungen für Personen- und Lastenaufzüge - Teil 73: Verhalten von Aufzügen im Brandfall
Diese Europäische Norm loegt die besonderen Maßnahmen und Sicherheitsregeln fest, um ein bestimmtes
Verhalten von Aufzügen im Brandfall sicherzustellen, das auf von der Brandmeldeanlage an die Aufzugs-
steuerung übermittelten Signalen basiert.
Sie ist auf neue Personen- und Lastenaufzüge anzuwenden. Sie kann jedoch auch sachdienlich zur Erhöhung
der Sicherheit bei bestehenden Personen- und Lastenaufzügen angewendet werden.
Diese Norm beschreibt mehrere Möglichkeiten der Steuerung von Aufzügen bei einem Brand in einem
Gebäude.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für
-
Aufzüge, die im Brandfall in Betrieb bleiben, z. B. Feuerwehraufzüge nach EN 81-72:2003;
-
die Nutzung von Aufzügen für die Evakuierung eines Gebäudes und
-
bei Brand im Schacht.
Regles de sécurité pour la construction et l'installation des élévateurs - Applications particulieres pour les ascenseurs et les ascenseurs de charge - Partie 73: Fonctionnement des ascenseurs en cas d'incendie
La présente norme Européenne spécifie les dispositions et les regles de sécurité spéciales pour assurer le fonctionnement des ascenseurs en cas d'incendie dans un bâtiment, sur la base d'un(de) signal(aux) du systeme de détection incendie aux systemes de commande des ascenseurs.
Elle s'applique aux ascenseurs et aux ascenseurs de charge neufs. Cependant, elle peut servir de base pour améliorer la sécurité des ascenseurs et ascenseurs de charge existants.
La présente norme donne diverses options pour la commande de l'ascenseur en cas d'incendie dans le bâtiment.
La présente norme ne s'applique pas:
aux ascenseurs qui restent en service pendant un incendie, par exemple, les ascenseurs "pompiers" tels que définis dans l'EN 81-72:2003,
a l'utilisation des ascenseurs pour l'évacuation du bâtiment, et
au feu dans la gaine.

Introduction
This document is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100-2:2003.
The lifts concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and 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 lifts that have
been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.
At present there are no European and only few national regulations for lifts which include specifications related to
the behaviour of lifts in the case of a fire in a building, except for firefighters lifts and the testing of the fire
resistance of landing doors. In some instances, locally required notices can be found such as “Do not use lift in
case of fire”.
This has the consequence that persons may be able to use lifts whilst a fire is in the building due to the fact that
they are not aware of this potential critical situation and the lifts are not taken out of service. Except for some
particular cases it is not intended that lifts should be used in the event of fire.
This European Standard deals with:
a) reducing the risk of passengers being trapped in a car in the event of a fire in a building;
b) clearly showing the firefighters/rescue teams that the lift contains no trapped passengers since it will be finally
parked at a designated floor;
c) reducing the risk of passengers in the car being exposed to fire and smoke.
The contents of this standard are based on the following assumptions:
requirements apply to all passenger and goods passenger lifts with all types of drives;
there needs to be a clear separation between the functioning of the building management system and the lift
control system;
automatic fire detection system initiates the signal to the lift causing a specific reaction of the lift. Alternatively,
a manual recall device is interfaced with the lift in order to send input signals to the lift;
lift control system determines the reaction of the lift) on receipt of a signal from the fire detection system;
lift is in normal operation and is available for passenger use;
fire alarm system is operating as intended;
dependent upon the fire alarm system in the building and the management of this information, different
reactions of the lift are possible;
building designers, architects or planners shall consider this standard with care. The provision of even a
manual recall device, or a fire detector on each landing will greatly improve the level of safety for persons in a
building in the event of a fire;
ISO/TS 14798 was used as the risk assessment methodology.
