| Resumen: | This European Standard specifies the safety rules for new escalators/moving walks replacing existing escalators/moving walks installed in existing buildings where, due to limitations enforced by building constraints, certain requirements of EN 115-1:2017 cannot be fully met. This standard shall only be used when replacing existing escalators/moving walks where structural constraints within an existing building make the installation of fully EN115-1:2017 compliant escalators/moving walks impossible. The escalator/moving walk installer must liaise with the customer and recommend altering the building structure in the first instance and deviations from EN115-1 should only be considered as a last resort. This standard addresses a number of these constraints, gives requirements for alternative solutions and covers: ? the replacement of an existing escalator/moving walk by a new one in an existing building. This standard does not cover: ? construction and installation of a new escalator / moving walk in ? an existing building, which is not replacing an existing escalator/moving walk; ? replacement or modifications of some parts of existing escalator/moving walk, e. g. intruss modernization; ? major modifications of existing escalator/moving walk, e. g. change of the location (see EN 115-1:2017, Annex L); ? other applications outside of the scope of EN 115-1:2017 |
