At USELSO, your trusted vertical transportation partner in Noida, safety is paramount. We understand that a lift is not just a convenience but a critical component of a building’s infrastructure, and the well-being of its users is our utmost priority. That’s why we are committed to providing and maintaining top-grade lift safety systems that not only meet but exceed global standards, ensuring secure and reliable vertical transportation for all in Noida’s dynamic urban landscape.
Adherence to International Benchmarks: Our Safety Commitment in Noida
In the realm of lift safety, several international and regional standards serve as crucial benchmarks for design, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance. USELSO is dedicated to adhering to these top-tier regulations for all our projects in Noida, including:
- EN 81 Series (European Standards): Widely recognized and respected globally, the EN 81 series encompasses various parts addressing the safety rules for the construction and installation of lifts. This includes EN 81-20 for passenger and goods passenger lifts and EN 81-50 for the design, calculation, and testing of lift components. These standards cover a comprehensive range of safety aspects, from mechanical and electrical safety to emergency operations and accessibility, all rigorously applied by USELSO in Noida.
- ISO Standards (International Organization for Standardization): ISO offers a framework for quality and safety management across various industries. While there isn’t a single overarching ISO standard solely for lift safety, standards like ISO 14798 focus on risk assessment and reduction methodology for lifts, escalators, and moving walks. Additionally, ISO 8100-20 outlines global essential safety requirements for lifts for the transport of persons and goods. USELSO’s processes in Noida incorporate these best practices.
- ASME A17.1/CSA B44 (North American Standards): In North America, the ASME A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators and its Canadian counterpart CSA B44 set stringent requirements for lift safety. While our primary focus for Noida is often EN and ISO standards, our broad industry knowledge ensures we incorporate global best practices.
- Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS): For our operations in Noida and across India, USELSO adheres to the relevant Indian Standards (IS) set by the BIS. These standards, such as IS 14665 for electric traction lifts and IS 15259 for safety requirements for passenger and goods lifts, ensure that our installations and services comply with national safety regulations within Noida.
Key Safety Systems We Implement and Maintain in Noida:
