Article 1 This Regulation is formulated according to Special Equipment Safety Law of the People's Republic of China and Regulations on Safety Supervision over Special Equipment in order to strengthen the supervisory management for the installation, renovation, maintenance, daily maintenance, use and inspection work of traction and positive drive lifts, regulate the supervisory inspection and periodical inspection behaviors for installation, renovation and significant repair of traction and positive drive lifts, improve the quality of inspection work, promote the operating safety of traction and positive drive lifts and guarantee the effective implementation of the work.
Article 2 This Regulation is applicable to the supervisory inspection and periodical inspection for installation, renovation and significant repair of electrically driven traction and positive lifts (except explosion-proof lift, fire fighter lift and dumbwaiter lift).
The production (including design, manufacture, installation, renovation, maintenance and daily maintenance of lifts, the same below) and using units of above-mentioned traction and positive drive lifts (hereinafter referred to as lifts) as well as Special Equipment Inspection Agencies engaged in lift supervisory inspection and periodical inspection shall comply with this Regulation.
Article 3 The supervisory inspection involved in this Regulation refers to the supervisory inspection carried out according to the requirements of this Regulation, for lift installation, renovation and significant repair process by special equipment inspection agencies (hereinafter referred to as inspection agencies) who are approved by General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (hereinafter referred to as GAQSIQ); the periodical inspection involved in this Regulation refers to the inspection conducted by inspection agencies periodically for in-use lifts according to the requirements of this Regulation.
The supervisory inspection and periodical inspection (hereinafter referred to as inspection) is the verification inspection for the lift production and using units implementing the relevant laws, regulations and standards, implementing the safety responsibilities and developing the relevant work quality conditions in order to guarantee and independently confirm lift safety. The self-inspection record or conclusion in report of lift production unit is the comprehensive judgment for equipment safety condition; the inspection conclusion in the inspection report issued by inspection agencies is the judgment for such work quality as lift production and using units implementing relevant responsibilities and independently determining equipment safety.
Article 4 Where such special circumstances as new technology, new material and new process related to lift production and inspection and affecting the technical index and requirements of this Regulation occur, GAQSIQ may propose the corresponding requirements according to specific circumstances.
Article 5 The construction organization who implements lift installation, renovation or significant repair shall apply for supervisory inspection to specified inspection agencies after performing inform as required and before construction commencement (excluding such preparation works as equipment unpacking and field survey); the lift using unit shall apply for periodical inspection to specified inspection agencies one month before the expiration of the next inspection date marked on the safety inspection mark.
Article 6 The construction organization shall check such civil works related to lift construction as lift machine room (or machinery equipment room), lift well and landing according to the requirements of design documents and standards, confirm the manufacture quality of lift (including spare parts, safety protection device, etc.), and make record well, and then carry out lift construction after the requirements are met.
The construction organization or maintenance organization shall, according to the requirements of relevant safety technical codes and standards, guarantee construction or daily maintenance quality, actually and accurately fill in record or report with respect to construction or daily maintenance, and shall be responsible for construction or daily maintenance quality as well as the trueness of provided related documents and information and the compliance with physical object.
Article 7 The construction organization, maintenance organization and using unit shall provide the relevant documents and information meeting the requirement of Annex A to inspection agencies, and arrange the relevant professional personnel to coordinate with inspection agencies to implement inspection. Thereinto, the self-inspection report of construction, annual self-inspection record or report of daily maintenance shall be submitted with hard copy separately for future reference.
Article 8 The inspection agencies shall implement supervisory inspection based on qualified self-inspection carried out in construction organization and implement periodical inspection based on qualified self-inspection of maintenance organization. The implementation of supervisory inspection and periodical inspection shall comply with the following requirements:
(I) For lift installation process, the items listed in Annex B shall be inspected according to the inspection contents, requirements and methods specified in Annex A;
(II) For lift renovation and significant repair process, the related items involved in renovation and significant repair which are listed in Annex B as well as Annex C (excluding the items involved in the above-mentioned renovation and significant repair), with the inspection contents, requirements and methods meeting Annex A;
(III) For in-use lift, the periodical inspection shall be carried out for the items listed in Annex C once per year according to the inspection contents, requirements and methods specified in Annex A;
(IV) When the special equipment safety supervision organization receives above 3 times (including) of real name reporting for lift faults within one inspection period and, upon confirmation, the existence of above faults affects the operating safety of the lift, special equipment safety supervision organization may request to carry out annual self-inspection and periodical inspection of maintenance organization in advance;
(V) For the lift that the safety technique performance is affected due to natural disaster or equipment breakdown and that has been out of use for more than one year, the inspection shall be carried out according to the requirements of Item (III) of this article before reuse. However, if renovation or significant repair for the lift is to be carried out, the inspection shall be carried out according to the requirements of Item (II) of this article.
Article 9 The lift inspection item is divided into three categories, i.e. Categories A, B and C. The inspection procedure of each category is as follows:
Foreword ii
Regulation for lift supervisory inspection and periodical inspection - Traction and positive drive lift
