2Safety Instructions for OMS Escalator Machines
2.1 A licable Use
The OMS – escalator traction machine EC 2 - 25 is solely intended for usage in escalators and
passenger conveyors (travelators, moving walks) for public transportation according to EN 115
and DIN EN ISO 12100 part 1 + 2.
The installation and use of the EC 2-25 for other purposes is not applicable. The OMS ANTRIEB-
STECHNIK is not liable for personal injury and or damage resulting from none applicable usage.
All Planning, installations and maintenance work may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Qualified personnel are such who having studied for qualifications, or are experienced, or have
received instruction and have the knowledge relating to the relevant standards and directives,
safety regulations and local knowledge required to install and maintain the machine and be able
to recognise and access the risks appertaining to this machine. (Qualified Personnel, as defined
in IEC 364).
This OMS – escalator drive is applicable to the 9th Directive of the Machine and Product Safety
Law
(9. Verordnung zum Geräte- und Produktsicherheitsgesetz [Maschinenverordnung])
and the
2006 42 EC Machine Directive. It is part of a machine, namely an escalator or a travelator and is
therefore not liable for CE certification.
The commencement of regular use is not permitted until the traction machine has been correct-
ly installed into the escalator or travelator and the manufacturer has applied the CE label to the
escalator or travelator to certify that the safety requirements have been fulfilled for the com-
plete product machine as supplied by the manufacturer.
All other required regulations and certificates (e.g. applicable to general use, maintenance and
inspections) remain in force.
The drive manufacturer only respects the warranty for operation and safety of the drive if it is
has been erected, maintained and operated according to the printed specifications supplied indi-
vidually with each drive. The warranty is void if the parameters outlined in the operating,
maintenance and control documentation have been exceeded. An incorrect installation or incor-
rect use of the system, and or violation of the standards outlined above, lead to a complete and
absolute none liability of the drive manufacturer.
The used motors are generally suitable for frequency inverter operation, provided the slew rate
limit of the motors is adhered to. Customer supplied frequency converters must be set up ac-
cording to their instruction sheets, in order to comply with the requirements of the OMS-
Escalator Machine, and with the national EMI directives.
The escalator traction machine is only intended for installation and usage in an enclosed area.
