Elevator Inspection

In the nineteenth century, the buildings were built with a maximum height of five or six floors and can be reached by using stairs. However, the need for elevators increased as the buildings wanted to be built high. The first elevators were built in the middle of the nineteenth century and did not pose a danger to human safety. The first elevator was built by American inventor Otis. This invention of Otis, which started a cycle in elevator construction with the safety brake system, has paved the way for the rise of buildings towards the sky. Today, Otis has more than a thousand employees and 60 has a history of over 40 years.

Elevators today inevitably exist in every moment of life. The most important issue for elevators is safety and reliability. Regardless of which brand, for whatever purpose, all elevators should therefore be regularly inspected and inspected and should not pose a danger to human health.

With the introduction of the first elevators, it was the job of the elevator staff to control the ups and downs of the elevators and to open and close the doors. As in today's world, it was at the end of the nineteenth century that people push the buttons in the cabin and steer the elevator to themselves. These early examples of elevators were running very slowly and were used in residential or several storey business inns.

Over time, as the electronic technique developed, rapid elevators and automatic control systems were developed. Afterwards, automatic command tables that can manage more than one elevator have developed. All elevators in high buildings for the last thirty years are fully automatic.

Control and Inspection Principles of Elevators

The greatest danger for the elevators used is the danger of falling. The fall of these elevators carrying people or loads can cause significant loss of life and property. The legal regulations on this subject place great responsibilities on the operators of the elevators.

In 2008, the Elevator Maintenance and Operation Regulation was issued by the Ministry of Industry and Trade. Elevators should work without causing any danger to property and life safety. This regulation includes the conditions for operation, maintenance, periodic inspections, warranty conditions and after-sales services of elevators. According to this regulation, all elevators should be inspected two years after they are put into service for the first time and once a year thereafter.

In the year 2013, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security issued the Regulation on Health and Safety in the Use of Work Equipment. In order to protect the health and safety of people, lifts which are classified as lifting and transmitting equipment should be regularly inspected and inspected. According to this regulation, all elevators must be checked at least once a year.

There are a number of test and inspection organizations to carry out these inspections and inspections. our organization TÜRCERT Technical Control and Certification Inc. also makes regular checks of elevators.

The regulation also describes how often the lifts need to be inspected and inspected, and the standards to be followed. Accordingly, the basic standards to be followed are:

  • TS EN 60204-32 Safety in machinery - Electrical devices in machinery - Part 32: Requirements for hoisting machines
  • TS ISO 12480-1 Cranes - Safe use - Section 1: General
  • TS EN 13000: 2010 + A1 Cranes - mobile cranes
  • TS EN 1495 / A2 Lift platforms - Pillar work platforms
  • TS EN 1757-2 Safety in industrial vehicles - Pedestrian controlled vehicles - Part 2: Pallet transporters

Our company TÜRCERT Technical Control and Certification Inc., the control and inspection services of lifts of all capacities and power, with a competent manager and employee staff and a strong infrastructure and quality, reliable and fast way.
