WARNING: In case of a system failure or trip-
ping of the safety gear, call in an authorised VIMEC
technician. In case of any kind of malfunction, put
the stairlift out of use by turning the master switch
to OFF.
8) SAFETY SYSTEMS
8.1) Devices to prevent impacts and shearing along
the travel rails.
When in motion, the platform and the body of the stairlift
are protected by sensor guards which stop the stairlift
if it touches an obstacle of any kind - Fig. 5.
However, they do allow the stairlift to be moved in the
opposite direction to that in which the obstacle was
encountered, to allow removal of the obstruction.
8.2) Safety devices for the user.
a) Safety gear
- Fig. 6/a.
The stairlift is equipped with a gradual action mechani-
cal safety gear. It is tripped if the drive components fail,
or if the normal downward travel speed is exceeded by
a pre-set amount.
When tripped, this device stops the stairlift.
WARNING: in this case the stairlift remains
locked out of use and an authorised VIMEC tech-
nician must be called in to put it back into service.
b) Bars and guard boards
During use the platform (Fig. 11/d) is protected by two
bars (Fig. 11/a) about 100 cm above the platform surfa-
ce. The platform is also protected by two guard boards
(Fig. 11/b) which have the dual function of facilitating
access to the stairlift at the floors (open position) and
of retaining the wheelchair while the stairlift is moving
(safety position at 50°, approximately 125 cm beyond
the platform surface).
Before the stairlift leaves the floor, the bars and guards
automatically move to the safety position.
The guard facing in the downward direction only opens
at the lower floor.
If the bars or guards encounter an obstacle as they
move into position, a surge protector is tripped, pre-
venting operation of the stairlift.
c) Handle
In the top of the stairlift body, it can be used as rest
while the stairlift is in motion - Fig. 11/c.
8.3) Other safety devices
a) Electrical and mechanical limit stops
The electrical limit switches (Fig. 18/a) fitted to the stai-
rlift allow it to be stopped automatically in the correct
positions at each end of the stair. In case of problems,
an over-run safety stop device stops the stairlift - Fig.
18/b.
