The world of norms in the elevator business

Interview to Wolfgang Adldinger, Wittur Corporate Director for Lift Norms by Christian Obenhaupt.
Wolfgang Adldinger is the Corporate Director for Lift Norms and his time at Wittur reaches back over 20 years.
Norms describe and ensure a certain level of safety and quality standards that companies (our customers and suppliers like us) have legally to fulfill in order to bring their products onto a market. Norms can be considered as a strategic management tool because they can enable or restrict access to different markets, reduce costs, eliminate waste and improve efficiency.

UCM Modernization of lifts at WITTUR Headquarters in Wiedenzhausen, Germany

January 17th, 2014

UCM Modernization of lifts at WITTUR Headquarters in Wiedenzhausen, Germany

The lift industry has recently focused on the danger of Unintended car movement (UCM) when lift doors are in open position.

As a result, EN 81-1:1998-A3:2009 und EN81-2:1998-A3:2009 norms were published to ensure that new lift installations are equipped with devices against unintended car movement.
In this respect, also existing lifts should receive the same attention; in particular, The German TRBS 1121, according to the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health, describes  a procedure for “change or important modifications of lifts” based on the norms.
This is the reason why Wittur decided to upgrade all the existing lifts in the Wittur building, installed in 2008, to the state-of-the-art from a safety point of view.

Wittur group has completed the vandal-resistant certification category 1 for its HYDRA and PEGASUS range of landing and car door types according to the European standard EN81-71:2005.

The growing demand of protection of lifts in unguarded public areas against acts of vandalism has lead CEN (European Committee for Standardization) to issue the harmonized norm, which defines the testing methodology and the classification of lifts in terms of vandal-resistance. Category 1 vandal-resistant doors are manufactured in reinforced execution in order to withstand moderate acts of vandalism, carried out according to modes and with instruments as indicated in the annexes of the EN81-71.
