This European Standard specifies the immunity performance criteria and test levels for apparatus used in lifts, escalators and passenger conveyors which are permanently installed in buildings including the basic safety requirements in regard to their EMC environment. These levels represent essential EMC requirements.
The standard refers to normal EMC conditions as existing in residential, office and industrial buildings, but does not cover severe EMC environments such as :
- radio transmitter stations ;
- railways and Metros ;
- heavy industrial plant ;
- electricity power stations.
Which need additional investigations.
This standard addresses commonly known EMC related hazards and hazardous situations relevant to lifts, escalators and passenger conveyors when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the manufacturer.
This standard addresses the environmental conditions of the apparatus stated in EN 81 and EN 115 (humidity, temperature, etc.), so far as they are related to EMC performance.
However :
- performance criteria and test levels for apparatus / assembly of apparatus used in general function circuits do not cover situations with an extremely low probability of occurrence ;
- this standard does not apply to other services already proven to be in conformity to the EMC Directive, such as lighting apparatus, communication apparatus, etc.
