evaluation purposes.
Test 10: ELGO UCM in UP direction (ELGO-CP)
Before starting put the empty elevator car to the floor where you want to make the test (excluded top floor).
During the test the lift starts in UP direction up to the end of door zone; at this point ELGO will give a fault (Fault
ELGO Cod. 24) and stop the elevator car (OC contact open) and on the display is showed space and time of system
intervention (to be compared with Eelevator N81 point 9.11.5).
IMPORTANT: spaces must pbe calculated before as a sum of intervention times (controller, Stopping device)
After test it is necessary a fault reset (Menu Fault, Reset) to put the ELGO LIMAX33-CP in normal operating mode.
Test 11: ELGO UCM in DOWN direction (ELGO-CP)
Before starting put the empty elevator car to the floor where you want to make the test (excluded bottom floor).
During the test the lift starts in DOWN direction up to the end of door zone; at this point ELGO will give a fault (Fault
ELGO Cod. 24) and stop the elevator car (OC contact open) and on the display is showed space and time of system
intervention (to be compared with EN81 point 9.11.5).
IMPORTANT: spaces must pbe calculated before as a sum of intervention times (controller, Stopping device)
After test it is necessary a fault reset (Menu Fault, Reset) to put the ELGO LIMAX33-CP in normal operating mode.
Test 12: OSG and Safety Gear test (ELGO-CP + eSGC)
Before starting put the elevator car to the top or bottom floor.
During the test the lift starts in high speed and the OSG+eSGC will open at nominal speed (Fault ELGO Cod. 9)
stopping the elevator car.
After test it is necessary a fault reset (Menu Fault, Reset) to put the ELGO LIMAX33-CP in normal operating mode.
Test 13: ETSL system intervention in UP direction (ELGO-CP)
Optional function. In normal condition protection open OC contact if the cabine’s speed is too high during the UP
direction trip (risk for counterweight on the buffers).
During the test ELGO consider the middle of the Shaft as if it were the Upper Reference point.
Before starting the test, place the empty cabin on the ground floor (lowest floor) without load to simulate the worst
conditions. During the test the cabin will start towards the highest floor. Before the mid-point of the lift shaft the ELGO
will open the OC safety contact (Fault ELGO Cod. 16) and the elevator car will stop for brake intervention before
reaching the half compartment position (assumed as the simulated buffer position).
The intervention time (from the opening of the OC contact) and distance from the mid-point of the lift shaft (safety
margin with the buffers) are displayed.
Test 14: ETSL system intervention in DOWN direction (ELGO-CP)
Optional function. In normal condition protection open OC contact if the cabine’s speed is too high during the UP
direction trip (risk for cabine on the buffers).
During the test ELGO consider the middle of the Shaft as if it were the Lower Reference point.
Before starting the test, place the cabin on the top floor with a fully loaded lift cabin to simulate the worst conditions.
During the test the cabin will start towards the bottom floor. Before the mid-point of the lift shaft the ELGO will open
the OC safety contact (Fault ELGO Cod. 16) and the elevator car will stop for brake intervention before reaching the
half compartment position (assumed as the simulated buffer position).
The intervention time (from the opening of the OC contact) and distance from the mid-point of the lift shaft (safety
margin with the buffers) are displayed.
Test 15: Reduced Head Safety test (EN 81-21 – ELGO-CP+eSGC)
Test for Reduced Head and Protection system based on ELGO+eSGC.
Protection intervention is after a shaft access, in the point given by distance TRIPS (Monitor Encoder, pag 8) from the
Upper Reference position (counterweight on the buffer).
During the test ELGO intervention is given also with lift in normal mode, without any shaft access simulation. Before
starts the test put the lift under the intervention point.
During the test elevator car will start in UP direction (to the top floor). When elevator car reaches the intervention
point, ELGO will open OC contact and switch off the eSGC output stopping the elevator car (Fault ELGO Cod. 4).
After test it is necessary a fault reset (Menu Fault, Reset) to put the ELGO LIMAX33-CP in normal operating mode.
