A.8 A.9 A.10 SaFed Testing on Lift Safety Gears
by Ash Chandler, from the Community
This template supports supplementary testing of lift safety gear systems under SaFed guidance, covering A.8 instantaneous governor-operated safety gears, A.9 progressive types, and A.10 devices operated by other means. It outlines test objectives and methods to ensure the overspeed governor and safety gear stop the car without brake assistance, verifies mounting, settings, and the integrity of car, counterweight, guide rails and fixings, and prompts visual checks, dynamic test conditions, and documentation of results. Use it to record load, activation speed, stopping performance, observations, and recommended remedial actions, with guidance on periodic testing intervals and post-test inspections to prevent deterioration.
