User’s Manual

3.6.7 Platform fences 

They must conform to EN 14122, be 1,1 m high and 
be equipped with doors. These must be monitored 
with a trapped key system that permits fence door to 
be opened only when service lift is present. 
Trapped key is attached to cabin by means of a wire 
rope, preventing loss of key. 

Optionally, the platform fences can be equipped  
with an electrical switch monitoring system, that 
disables control of the elevator in case one platform 
fence is open, which is composed by a manual 
actuated mechanical lock connected to switch 
cutting power to lift when it is opened, or with a 
guardlocking system keeping the door locked while 
the service lift is not at the platform. The door is 
unlocked when the service lift is at the platform with
the lift detection switch activated. The ready light is 
ON when the door is closed. 
During emergency use, for example, power cut, need 
of evacuation or rescue, the door guard locking 
switch can be unlocked by acting the mechanical 
Door Manual Release system from outside the fence, 
or from inside the fence.

3.6.8 Main service lift door

 

Main access to the cabin is done through the full 
sliding door installed on the front. 
The full sliding door opening dimensions are 1950 x 
500 mm. It features a guard locking system that:

• Prevents service lift to travel if the door is open.
This opening condition is monitored by the guard
locking switch.

• Permits door to be opened only when service lift
is levelled with a platform. This levelling condition is
monitored by the platform level switch which is
triggered by the safe zone plates.

For the Octopus L95, as an option, the levelling 
condition can be monitored by a magnetic sensor.

It is possible to manually release guard locking 
system in order to open main door between 
platforms for maintenance tasks or installation of 
WTG parts. 

3.6.9 Ladder access door

 

Ladder access door consists of two hinged sheets 
that fold up when opened, thus optimizing space. In 
case of evacuation, the ladder access door permits 
direct access to ladder and ladder rail. 
A safety switch interrupts control when door is open.
