THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 100a thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission(1),
Having regard to the Opinion of the Economic and Social Committee(2),
Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 189b of the Treaty(3) in the light of the joint text approved by the Conciliation Committee on 17 May 1995,
Whereas Member States are responsible within their territory for the health and safety of people;
Whereas paragraphs 65 and 68 of the White Paper on the completion of the internal market, approved by the European Council in June 1985, provide for a new approach to the approximation of laws;
Whereas Council Directive 84/529/EEC of 17 September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electrically, hydraulically or oil-electrically operated lifts(4) does not ensure freedom of movement for all types of lift; whereas disparities between the binding provisions of the various national systems for types of lift not covered by Directive 84/529/EEC constitute barriers to trade within the Community; whereas the national rules on lifts should therefore be harmonized;
Whereas Council Directive 84/528/EEC of 17 September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to common provisions for lifting and mechanical handling appliances(5) serves as a framework Directive for two specific Directives, namely Directive 84/529/EEC and Council Directive 86/663/EEC of 22 December 1986 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to self-propelled industrial trucks(6), repealed by Council Directive 91/368/EEC of 20 June 1991 amending Directive 89/392/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to machinery(7);
Whereas on 8 June 1995 the Commission adopted recommendation No 95/216/EC(8) to the Member States concerning improvement of safety of existing lifts;
Whereas the essential requirements of this Directive will guarantee the intended level of safety only if appropriate conformity assessment procedures, chosen from among the provisions of Council Decision 93/465/EEC of 22 July 1993 concerning the modules for the various phases of the conformity assessment procedures and the rules for the affixing and use of the CE conformity marking, which are intended to be used in the technical harmonization directives(9), ensure compliance therewith;
Whereas the CE marking must be visibly affixed to lifts or to certain safety components of lifts which meet the essential health and safety requirements of this Directive to enable them to be placed on the market;
Whereas this Directive defines only general essential health and safety requirements; whereas, in order to help manufacturers prove conformity with these essential requirements, it is desirable to have standards harmonized at European level concerning the prevention of risks arising from the design and installation of lifts, and also in order to enable conformity with the essential requirements to be verified; whereas such standards are drawn up at European level by private-law bodies and must retain their non-binding status; whereas, for this purpose, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (Cenelec) are recognized as the competent bodies for adopting harmonized standards in accordance with the general guidelines for cooperation between the Commission and CEN and Cenelec signed on 13 November 1984; whereas a harmonized standard within the meaning of this Directive is a technical specification adopted by CEN and/or Cenelec on the basis of a mandate from the Commission in accordance with Council Directive 83/189/EEC of 28 March 1983 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations(10) and pursuant to the abovementioned general guidelines;
Whereas provision should be made for transitional arrangements to enable installers to place on the market lifts manufactured before the date of implementation of this Directive;
Whereas this Directive is designed to cover all risks caused by lifts and run by their users and by the occupants of the construction; whereas this Directive should therefore be regarded as a Directive within the meaning of Article 2 (3) of Council Directive 89/106/EEC of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to construction products(11);
Whereas an agreement on a modus vivendi between the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission concerning the implementing measures for acts adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 189b of the EC Treaty was reached on 20 December 1994,
HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

(c)keep a copy of the declaration of conformity for 10 years from the date on which the safety component was last manufactured.
2.Before being placed on the market, a lift must have undergone one of the following procedures:
either, if it was designed in accordance with a lift having undergone an EC type-examination as referred to in Annex V, it shall be constructed, installed and tested by implementing:
the final inspection referred to in Annex VI, or
the quality assurance system referred to in Annex XII, or
the quality assurance system referred to in Annex XIV.
The procedures for the design and construction stages, on the one hand, and the installation and testing stages, on the other, may be carried out on the same lift;
or, if it was designed in accordance with a model lift having undergone an EC type-examination as referred to in Annex V, it shall be constructed, installed and tested by implementing:
the final inspection referred to in Annex VI, or
the quality assurance system referred to in Annex XII, or
the quality assurance system referred to in Annex XIV;
or, if it was designed in accordance with a lift for which a quality assurance system pursuant to Annex XIII was implemented, supplemented by an examination of the design if the latter is not wholly in accordance with the harmonized standards, it shall be installed and constructed and tested by implementing, in addition:
the final inspection referred to in Annex VI, or
the quality assurance system in accordance with Annex XII, or
the quality assurance system in accordance with Annex XIV;
or, having undergone the unit verification procedure, referred to in Annex X, by a notified body;
or, having been subject to the quality assurance system in accordance with Annex XIII, supplemented by an examination of the design if the latter is not wholly in accordance with the harmonized standards.
In the cases referred to in (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the person responsible for the design must supply to the person responsible for the construction, installation and testing all necessary documents and information for the latter to be able to operate in absolute security.
3.In all the cases referred to in paragraph 2:

The Commission shall take the necessary steps to have information on all the relevant decisions relating to the implementation of this Directive made available.
Directive 84/528/EEC and Directive 84/529/EEC are hereby repealed with effect from 1 July 1999.
With regard to the aspects concerning the installation of the lift, this Directive is a Directive within the meaning of Article 2 (3) of Directive 89/106/EEC.
1.Member States shall adopt and publish the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive by 1 January 1997. They shall forthwith inform the Commission thereof.
When Member States adopt these measures, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or shall be accompanied by such reference on the occasion of their official publication. The methods of making such reference shall be laid down by Member States.
Member States shall apply these measures with effect from 1 July 1997.
2.Until 30 June 1999 Member States shall allow:
the placing on the market and putting into service of lifts,
the placing on the market and putting into service of safety components,
which conform to the provisions in force in their territories on the date of adoption of this Directive.
3.Member States shall communicate to the Commission the texts of the provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.
No later than 30 June 2002, the Commission shall, in consultation with the Committee referred to in Article 6 (3) and on the basis of reports provided by the Member States, re-examine the functioning of the procedures laid down in this Directive and, if necessary, submit any proposals for appropriate amendments.
This Directive is addressed to the Member States.
Where the relevant hazard exists and is not dealt with in this Annex, the essential health and safety requirements of Annex I to Directive 89/392/EEC apply. The essential requirement of Section 1.1.2 of Annex I to Directive 89/392/EEC must apply in any event.
The carrier of each lift must be a car. This car must be designed and constructed to offer the space and strength corresponding to the maximum number of persons and the rated load of the lift set by the installer.
Where the lift is intended for the transport of persons, and where its dimensions permit, the car must be designed and constructed in such a way that its structural features do not obstruct or impede access and use by disabled persons and so as to allow any appropriate adjustments intended to facilitate its use by them.]
The means of suspension and/or support of the car, its attachments and any terminal parts thereof must be selected and designed so as to ensure an adequate level of overall safety and to minimize the risk of the car falling, taking into account the conditions of use, the materials used and the conditions of manufacture.
Where ropes or chains are used to suspend the car, there must be at least two independent cables or chains, each with its own anchorage system. Such ropes and chains must have no joins or splices except where necessary for fixing or forming a loop.
These requirements do not apply to lifts in which the design of the drive system prevents overspeed.
there can be no possible confusion with circuits which do not have any direct connection with the lift,
the power supply can be switched while on load,
movements of the lift are dependent on electrical safety devices in a separate electrical safety circuit,
a fault in the electrical installation does not give rise to a dangerous situation.
The objective will be achieved by means of free space or refuge beyond the extreme positions.
However, in specific cases, in affording Member States the possibility of giving prior approval, particularly in existing buildings, where this solution is impossible to fulfil, other appropriate means may be provided to avoid this risk.
An interlocking device must prevent during normal operation:
starting movement of the car, whether or not deliberately activated, unless all landing doors are shut and locked,
the opening of a landing door when the car is still moving and outside a prescribed landing zone.
However, all landing movements with the doors open shall be allowed in specified zones on condition that the levelling speed is controlled.
The doors of the car must remain closed and interlocked if the lift stops between two levels where there is a risk of a fall between the car and the shaft or if there is no shaft.
The device preventing the free fall of the car must be independent of the means of suspension of the car.
This device must be able to stop the car at its rated load and at the maximum speed anticipated by the installer of the lift. Any stop occasioned by this device must not cause deceleration harmful to the occupants whatever the load conditions.
In this case, the free space referred to in Section 2.2 must be measured with the buffers totally compressed.
This requirement does not apply to lifts in which the car cannot enter the free space referred to in Section 2.2 by reason of the design of the drive system.
assembly,
connection,
adjustment, and
maintenance,
can be carried out effectively and without danger.
an instruction manual containing the plans and diagrams necessary for normal use and relating to maintenance, inspection, repair, periodic checks and the rescue operations referred to in Section 4.4,
a logbook in which repairs and, where appropriate, periodic checks can be noted.
The EC declaration of conformity must contain the following information:
name and address of the manufacturer of the safety components(14),
where appropriate, name and address of his authorized representative established in the Community(14),
description of the safety component, details of type or series and serial number (if any),
safety function of the safety component, if not obvious from the description,
year of manufacture of the safety component,
all relevant provisions with which the safety component complies,
where appropriate, reference to harmonized standards used,
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which carried out the EC type-examination in accordance with Article 8 (1) (a) (i) and (ii),
where appropriate, reference to the EC type-examination certificate issued by that notified body,
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which carried out the production checks in accordance with Article 8 (1) (a) (ii),
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which checked the system of quality assurance implemented by the manufacturer in accordance with Article 8 (1) (a) (iii),
identification of the signatory empowered to act on behalf of the manufacturer of the safety components or his authorized representative established in the Community.
The EC declaration of conformity must contain the following information:
name and address of the installer of the lift(16),
description of the lift, details of the type or series, serial number and address where the lift is fitted,
year of installation of the lift,
all relevant provisions to which the lift conforms,
where appropriate, reference to harmonized standards used,
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which carried out the EC type-examination of the model of the lift in accordance with Article 8 (2), (i) and (ii),
where appropriate, reference of the EC type-examination certificate,
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which carried out the verification of the lift in accordance with Article 8 (2) (iv),
where appropriate, name, address and identification number of the notified body which carried out the final inspection of the lift in accordance with the first indent of Article 8 (2), (i), (ii) and (iii),
where appropriate, name, address, and identification number of the notified body which inspected the quality assurance system implemented by the installer in accordance with the second and third indents of Article (8) (2) (i), (ii), (iii) and (v),
identification of the signatory having been empowered to act on behalf of the lift installer.
The CE conformity marking shall consist of the initials ‘CE’ taking the following form:
If the CE marking is reduced or enlarged the proportions given in the above drawing must be respected.
The various components of the CE marking must have substantially the same vertical dimension, which may not be less than 5 mm. This minimum dimension may be waived for small-scale safety components.
The CE marking shall be followed by the identification number of the notified body that deals with
the procedures referred to in Article 8 (1) (a) (ii) or (iii),
the procedures referred to in Article 8 (2).
