New Lifts Directive
The new lifts directive (Directive 2014/33/EU) will be transposed into the national law of
the member states of the European Union, Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway (based on
their participation in the European Economic Area), Switzerland (based on a mutual
recognition agreement with the EU) and Turkey (based on a customs union with the EU)
as of 20 April 2016, and will replace the national legislation based on the current lifts
directive (Directive 95/16/EC) as of this date.
This means that all lifts that are placed on the market as of 20 April 2016 must comply
with the requirements of the new lifts directive. Lifts that have been placed on the market
before 20 April 2016 and that are in conformity with the current lifts directive (Directive
95/16/EC) may however still be put into service after this date.
One of the main changes introduced with the new lifts directive is the requirement to
ensure the traceability of safety components for lifts throughout the entire supply chain.
To meet the legal requirements, all safety components for lifts manufactured and/or
supplied by Schindler will be labelled with a standard type label that among other
information includes one or several of the following items: Ident, serial and batch
number, name and address of the manufacturer and importer of the safety component
for lifts, as well as a traceability tag (QR-Tag) for Schindler internal purposes.
Standard Schindler
Type Label
For standard Schindler type label, refer to section "Safety Components".
Handling of
Emergencies
When the handling of alarms is the responsibility of the owner of the installation, the
following has to be considered:
In the case of an emergency where there is no response from the car, it must be
assumed that the person in the car pressing the alarm button has impaired speech or
hearing. This requires immediate intervention by a competent person.
