10.

Regulations

Safe operation can only be ensured
if the points described below and
the connection and limitation values
in these operating instructions are
observed
company, service firm and the user. Operation of the
system is unallowable if these requirements are not
met.

10.1. Legislation and regulations

The installation company, service firm and the user
must observe both national and local legislation,
along with the regulations laid down by the elevator
manufacturer, to enable cegard/Lift to fulfil its safety
function and to maintain it.
10.2.

Qualifications of skilled personnel

Installation, commissioning and maintenance of the
cegard/Lift should only be carried out by qualified
personnel who can prove that they have received
special training in elevator system safety technol-
ogy. The system control rack should be installed in a
manner, which gives unauthorized personnel no
opportunity to change the wiring. This is achieved by
mounting it on the roof of the elevator cabin.
10.3.

Periodic testing

The cegard/Lift should be checked for correct
function at each legally-prescribed elevator service.
This should involve checking whether the light cur-
tain can be triggered throughout the entire monitor-
ing range e.g. with the aid of the buzzer.
10.4.

Reflection

Even very accurate calibration (as takes place in the
control unit plug-in) cannot prevent every case of
reflection. Extremely reflective shaft walls (tiled or
with metal plating) running parallel to monitoring
surfaces or even distances between emitter and
receiver edges which are too short, can cause re-
flections.
Reflection should be reduced with appropriate
measures if the light curtain is not triggered by inter-
rupting the protective zone. This can involve the use
of the CEDES recessed mounting kit, a matt black
paint coating, sand blasting or the fitting of a shade.
Notice:
CEDES can provide a special solution for very nar-
row elevators (< 70 cm).

Cleaning the opto edges

The cegard/Lift is an optical device. The opto edges
should therefore only be cleaned with a soft cloth
and, in the case of stubborn dirt, soapy water. Sol-
vents should never be used. Opto edges could be
destroyed or their range could be reduced by such
treatment.
11. Decommissioning, repair
and disposal
11.1.

Decommissioning

The cegard/Lift LX and LY can only be decommis-
sioned if an equivalent or better accident prevention
measure (e.g. interior cabin door) is installed. This
should involved complete de-commissioning of in-
stallation kits, optical strips and the control unit plug-
in.
11.2.

Repair

Any repair work should be executed exclusively by
CEDES specialised service or repair specialists with
written authorization from CEDES.
Important safety notice:
Any other repairs can adversely effect safety and
constitute a risk for elevator users.
11.3.

Disposal

Please recycle the packaging carton. Large quanti-
ties of packaging material can also be disposed of at
every CEDES subsidiary or CEDES representative.
CEDES subsidiaries or CEDES representatives also
take back used units for dismantling and reintroduce
the components into the material cycle again.
