Since 2004, according to the relevant requirements of the Special Equipment Safety Supervision Bureau (hereinafter referred to as "SESSB") of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as "AQSIQ"), the Technical Regulation Department of China Special Equipment Inspection and Research Institute (hereinafter referred to as "CSEI") has organized the experts concerned to draft the regulation for type test of lifts and the guidelines relevant to type test of complete machine, components and safety guards of lifts. Up to 2011, the draft of regulation for type test of lifts and those of relevant guidelines have been formed basically. In June 2011, according to the new requirements such as adjusting the work ideas of safety supervision and combining the regulation and guidelines, SESSB of AQSIQ issued the assignment of drafting Regulation for Type Test of Lifts to CSEI. Upon receipt of the assignment, CSEI organized the experts concerned to form a drafting team and also convened the first working conference in Shanghai. Afterwards, the drafting team convened the working conference for many times and formed the exposure draft in September 2014. In October 2014, AQSIQ solicited opinions from the grassroots level, the departments, units and experts concerned and the citizens in the form of Document ZHIJIANTEHAN [2014] No.32. Based on the opinions solicited, the drafting team modified the exposure draft and formed the draft for examination. In November 2014, the draft for examination was submitted to the AQSIQ Special Equipment Safety Technical Committee for deliberation. According to the deliberations and the typical accident cases, the drafting team convened thematic conference for many times, modified the draft for examination, and formed the draft for approval in November 2015. On June 6, 2016, AQSIQ approved and issued this regulation.
This regulation explicitly specifies the general principles, procedures and requirements of lift type test and the contents, methods, requirements, etc. of type test for the complete machine, components and safety guards of lifts, and provides basis for standardizing the type test work of lifts and improving the quality of type test work.
