What solution must be complied with according to article 3 of the new ITC for elevators?
Uncontrolled cabin movements
Ensuring user safety in lifts is a top priority. To protect passengers from uncontrolled cabin movements, it is essential to incorporate safety devices in accordance with EN-81.20/50 . These devices not only ensure passenger peace of mind, but also raise the safety and efficiency standards of your lift.
Deadlines for Incorporating Measures
These measures must be incorporated when the tractor unit is changed simultaneously, whether electric or hydraulic, and its operation .
GMV solutions for protection against uncontrolled cabin movements
GMV, a leader in elevator safety solutions, recommends the following products and safety devices for elevators that ensure compliance with regulations and maximum user protection:
