Safety Guidelines

  • Perform applicable lockout/tagout steps of site safety procedures to ensure machinery will not start

  • Schedule outage with operating personnel

  • Follow site safety procedures and your supervisor instructions

  • Record and report any equipment damage or Deficiencies found during this maintenance task

  • Record all test results in the component maintenance log

  • Obtain and review manufacturer operation and maintenance instructions

  • All tests shall conform to the manufacturer test procedures and standard values

Maintenance Procedures

  • Evaluate elevator performance

  • Verify elevator service is adequate for daily passenger traffic loads

  • Talk to the occupants. Do they criticize elevator service? Do they complain about waiting, crowding, or malfunctioning equipment?

  • Evaluate elevator average response time and rate the elevators: 25 seconds or less = excellent rating. 26-30 seconds = good rating. 31-35 seconds = fair rating. Over 35 seconds = poor rating

  • Evaluate maintenance callbacks: Are they within the industry standard of two per elevator per year?

  • Check performance: Does current elevator operation compare with the performance specifications when the equipment was new? Are there any open work orders for repair?

  • Safety features: Verify the emergency alarm bell and intercom and telephone are operating properly. Verify the emergency lighting operates properly

  • Fixtures: Verify hall and elevator call lights and floor indicators are working properly. Verify overhead lights and ventilation systems are operating properly

  • Doors: At stops, do the doors operate noisily? Are passengers bumped by the doors?

  • Starting and stopping: Do elevators hesitate at floors too long after buttons are pressed? Do they start and stop abruptly or uncomfortably?

  • Leveling: Does the car level with the floor at each stop so passengers will not trip?

  • Ride: Do you hear squeaks and scrapes or feel vibrations when the elevators are running? Do they feel unbalanced?

  • Run times: Do elevators grouped in the same bank appear to operate at different speeds during<br>comparable runs?

  • Check response times with a stopwatch and record the values. These tests should be performed near a mid-floor stop. Measurements should be taken in both directions and averaged.

  • Floor-to-floor time: Time required to make a one-floor run. Measured from the time the hoistway doors start to close at one floor until they are fully open at the next floor

  • Performance time: Measured from the time the doors start to close at one floor until they are sufficiently open to allow passenger exchange at the next floor

  • Car start time: Measured from the time the doors start to close until the elevator actually moves

  • Brake-to-brake time: Measured from the time the car starts until it stops on a one-floor run.

  • Door open time: Measured from the time doors start to open until fully open

  • Perform a fire service test (8.6.10.1):

  • Perform a Phase I recall by use of the key switch, and a minimum of one-floor operation on Phase II

  • Perform an inside car inspection (8.11.2.1.1):

  • Check the door reopening device (Item 1.1)

  • 2.26.2.34). Check the operating instructions for unexpected car movement (Item 8.6.10.6). Check the operating instructions for egress and re-entry procedures

  • Check the equipmentaccess panel electrical device (Item 2.26.2.35)

  • Perform a machine/control space inspection (8.11.2.1.2):

  • Check equipment exposed to weather (Item 2.7.6.6)

  • Check the means of access (Item 2.1)

  • Check the headroom in the machine/control room space (Item 2.2)
