Passenger or goods lift thorough examination
The examination interval is the law and no sensor changes it. What converts is the service visit in between: a controller that reports door faults tells you which lift needs the engineer this week.
What does a passenger or goods lift thorough examination involve?
Passenger or goods lift thorough examination checks: door cycle faults, re-levelling events, trip count, safety gear test result, rope or belt condition. Observed by remote lift monitoring for condition; competent person (insurer or inspection body) for the examination. Thorough examination is set by law: LOLER regulation 9 in the UK (six-monthly where people are lifted, twelve-monthly otherwise), registered plant inspection under state regulations in Australia, and ASME A17.1 jurisdictional inspections in North America.
- Condition that replaces the interval
- Partly. Lift controllers log door faults, levelling errors, trip counts and overloads continuously and remote monitoring turns those into alerts; the thorough examination by a competent person stays on its statutory interval.
- Reading that proves it
- Door cycle faults, re-levelling events, trip count, safety gear test result, rope or belt condition
- Why the interval stays
- Thorough examination is set by law: LOLER regulation 9 in the UK (six-monthly where people are lifted, twelve-monthly otherwise), registered plant inspection under state regulations in Australia, and ASME A17.1 jurisdictional inspections in North America.
- Evidence an auditor accepts
- Thorough examination report per lift with defects and the date by which they must be remedied, plus the service contractor visit reports
- First move
- Record the examination due date per lift in the register and treat a report defect as an overdue item from the date the report sets.
