Access Rail System – R32
7a Objective - This test objective is to ensure that the system has been installed correctly in practice and remains
sound as it ages.
7b Rail test locations - We recommend that each rail is tested in at least three (3) locations;, typically at both
ends, at any rail joint, and in the middle..
7C Test description -
Subject to engineer/surveyor approval, each rail should be tested upon installation:
- Insert the trolley in the rail and achieve a load of 600kg
- Test for 15 seconds per locations
- Remove the load and repeat the same in 2 further locations
- The system should remain functional; repeat as necessary for each separate rail
7d Test intervals - Normal safety equipment operations require testing post-installation and then annual
inspections each year thereafter. Follow careful inspection procedures of trolley assemblies as previously..
Additionally, perform torque testing of rail fasteners on an annual basis. Use a torque wrench and test five (5)
percent of the fasteners spread out across a broad location spectrum. Test to the fastener manufacturer's
recommended torque specification. If torque test fails, rail should be decommissioned until the exact cause of
the torque test failures are determined. Chemical anchors for fasteners must be pull tested every five (5) years.
Mechanical anchors for fasteners must be pull tested every 10 years. Follow the installation pull test procedure
"7C" above.
7e Test scheduling and records - Further testing and inspection of the Access Rail system should be incorporated
into standard operating practices and into the EXAMINATION/REPAIR HISTORY in section 16.
