Note: For example, safety gear, overspeed governor and landing door lock. 3.3 type examination certificate document issued by an approved body carrying out a type-examination in which it certifies that the product example under consideration complies with the provisions applicable to it. 4 List of significant hazards This clause contains all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events, as far as they are dealt with in this document, identified by risk assessment as significant for this type of machinery, and they require action to eliminate or reduce the risk (see Table 1). 5 Design rules, calculations, examinations and tests 5.1 General provisions for type examinations of safety components 5.1.1 Object and extent of the tests The safety component/device is submitted to a test procedure to verify that insofar as construction and operation are concerned, it conforms to the requirements imposed by this document. It shall be checked, in particular, that the mechanical, electrical and electronic components of the device are properly rated and that, in the course of time, the device does not lose its effectiveness, particularly through wear or aging. If the safety component is needed to satisfy particular requirements (waterproof, dust proof or explosion proof construction), supplementary examinations and/or tests under appropriate criteria shall be made. 5.1.2 General provisions 5.1.2.1 For the purposes of this document, it is assumed that the laboratory undertakes both the testing and the certification as an approved body. 5.1.2.2 The application for type examination shall be made by the manufacturer of the component, or their authorized representative, and shall be addressed to an approved test laboratory. 5.1.2.3 The dispatch of samples for examination shall be made by agreement between the laboratory and the applicant. 5.1.2.4 The applicant may attend the tests. 5.1.2.5 If the laboratory entrusted with the complete examination of one of the components requiring the supply of a type examination certificate has no appropriate means available for certain tests or examinations, it may, under its responsibility, have these made by other laboratories with the agreement of the applicant. 5.1.2.6 Unless specified otherwise, the precision of the instruments shall allow measurements to be made within the following accuracy: a) ±1 % for masses, forces, distances, speeds; b) ±2 % for accelerations, retardations; c) ±5 % for voltages, currents; d) ±5℃ for temperatures; e) Recording equipment shall be capable of detecting signals, which vary in time of 0.01s; f) ±2.5 % for flow rate; g) ±1 % for pressure, p, below 200 kPa; h) ±5 % for pressure, p, above 200 kPa. 5.2 Type examination of landing and car door locking devices 5.2.1 General provisions 5.2.1.1 Field of application These procedures are applicable to locking devices for landing and car doors. It is understood that each component taking part in the locking of doors and in the checking of the locking forms part of the locking device. 5.2.1.2 Documents to be submitted 5.2.1.2.1 Schematic arrangement drawing with description of operation This drawing shall clearly show all the details relating to the operation and the safety of the locking device, including: a) The operation of the device in normal service, showing the effective engagement of the locking elements and the point at which the electrical safety device operates; b) The operation of the device for mechanical checking of the locking position if this device exists; c) The control and operation of the emergency unlocking device; d) The type (A.C. and/or D.C.), rated voltage and rated current. 5.2.1.2.2 Assembly drawing with key This drawing shall show all parts important to the operation of the locking device, in particular those required to conform to the requirements of this document. A key shall indicate the list of the principal parts, the type of materials used, and the characteristics of the fixing elements. 5.2.1.3 Test samples One door-locking device shall be submitted to the laboratory. If the test is carried out on a prototype, it shall be repeated later on a production model. If the test of the locking device is only possible when the device is mounted in the corresponding door, the device shall be mounted on a complete door in working order. However, the door dimensions may be reduced by comparison with a production model, on the condition that it does not falsify the test results. 5.2.2 Examination and tests 5.2.2.1 Examination of operation This examination aims to verify that: ——The mechanical and electrical components of the locking device are operating correctly with respect to safety, in conformity with the requirements of this document and the standard calling for this locking device; ——The device is in conformity with the particulars provided in the application. In particular, it shall be verified: a) There is at least 7 mm engagement of the locking elements before the electric safety device operates; b) It is not possible to operate the lift from positions normally accessible to persons with a door open or unlocked, after one single action not forming part of the normal operation. 5.2.2.2 Mechanical tests 5.2.2.2.1 General These tests have the purpose of verifying the strength of the mechanical locking components and the electrical components. The sample of the locking device in its normal operating position is controlled by the devices normally used to operate it. The sample shall be lubricated in accordance with the requirements of the manufacturer of the locking device.
