12、came into effect on30 November 2011. It was prepared by Technical Committee MHE/4, Lifts, hoistsand escalators. A list of organizations represented on this committee can beobtained on request to its secretary.SupersessionThis part of BS 5655 supersedes BS 5655-6:2002, which is withdrawn.Relationship
13、 with other publicationsThis part of BS 5655 should be read in conjunction with BS 7255, which givesrecommendations for safe working on lifts that are additional to the featuresrecommended in this part of BS 5655 and are applicable when installing,examining, inspecting, testing, servicing, repairing
14、, dismantling and demolishingpermanent lift installations.This part of BS 5655 paraphrases many of the requirements specified in all otherrelevant standards (listed in the bibliography). This indicates what information isto be exchanged between the interested parties and the sequence of eventsfrom t
15、he preliminary planning stage to the putting into service of theinstallation.Lifts selected in accordance with Clause 11 are generally suitable for use bypersons with impaired mobility. It might be necessary to specify additionalfeatures to suit certain disabilities (details can be found in BS 8300
16、andBS EN 81-70). Subject to certain limitations, the provision of vertical access forpersons with impaired mobility can be achieved by the provision of poweredlifting platforms.Information about this documentThis is a full revision of the standard, and introduces the following principalchanges: the
17、clauses on technology have been updated; energy efficiency considerations have been included; the annexes have been updated and three new annexes have been includedcovering traffic control systems, energy efficiency and the principalrequirements in the provision of lifts for persons with impaired mo
18、bility.Use of this documentAs a code of practice, this part of BS 5655 takes the form of guidance andrecommendations. It should not be quoted as if it were a specification andparticular care should be taken to ensure that claims of compliance are notmisleading.Any user claiming compliance with this
19、part of BS 5655 is expected to be able tojustify any course of action that deviates from its recommendations.Presentational conventionsThe provisions in this standard are presented in roman (i.e. upright) type. Itsrecommendations are expressed in sentences in which the principal auxiliaryverb is “sh
20、ould”.Commentary, explanation and general informative material is presented insmaller italic type, and does not constitute a normative element.BRITISH STANDARD BS 5655-6:2011 BSI 2011 iiiContractual and legal considerationsThis publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of
21、acontract. Users are responsible for its correct application.Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from legalobligations.BRITISH STANDARDBS 5655-6:2011iv BSI 20111 ScopeThis part of BS 5655 gives recommendations for the selection, installation andlocation of new passenger and pas
22、senger/goods lifts in the classifications givenin Table 1. It also gives recommendations for issues relating to the selection andinstallation of lifts, such as building design.This part of BS 5655 is applicable only for the early stages of a project forclients, architects, principal contractors, bui
23、lding owners, building managers,developers, general and specialized engineering consultants, lift contractors andother interested parties.This part of BS 5655 does not give recommendations for existing liftinstallations.NOTE Although this part of BS 5655 does not give recommendations for existingins
24、tallations, it may be used as guidance when making alterations to suchinstallations.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application ofthis document.
