 3. DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTALLATION
Atlas traction MRL lifts family consists of six model lifts as shown in the table below. Basically Atlas family
lifts has not a separate machine room in the building since the machine is located in the top of the shaft while
the lift controller is located inside a cabinet next to a landing door. However, it has to be noted that Atlas
family lifts can be operated also with a machine room above the shaft using the same layout.
Rated load range Max. Rated speed Max travel Suspension ratio Car frame type
Atlas 2:1 EU 375 – 1000 kg 1,6 m/s 60 m 2:1 Tandem
Atlas Gigas R 1050 – 2500 kg 1,75 m/s 45 m 2:1 Tandem
Atlas RPH 320 -1000 kg 1,6 m/s 45 m 2:1 Tandem
Atlas RPH-R 450-1050 kg 1,0 m/s 40 m 2:1 Rucksack
Atlas L 300 – 1000 kg 1,6 m/s 45 m 2:1 Rucksack
Atlas NS 180 – 450 kg 1,0 m/s 45 m 2:1 Rucksack
Atlas Super Gigas 2500 kg – 5000 kg 1,0 m/s 45 m 4:1 Tandem
Note: Higher travels are possible provided necessary calculations carried out by KLEEMANN

The above mentioned traction MRL lift models have similar function as follows:

Upward – downward movement

The movement results from the rotation of the machine’s motor (1), which rotates the traction sheave. The
ropes pass through the sheave’s grooves.
The one edge of the ropes is fixed to a base on the top of the shaft (19) and they go through the diverting
pulleys, which are fixed at the car frame (15).
The ropes then go through the grooves of the traction sheave and afterwards to the diverting pulleys, which
are fitted at the top of the counterweight frame (5).
The car frame (6) is guided on guide rails (9). Also the counterweight’s frame is guided on guide rails (4).
Adequate brackets (3, 18) are used to support the guide rails.
The car moves upwards or downwards according to the sense of rotation of the traction sheave.

Controller
The lift is controlled electronically by the controller, which is located in a cabinet. The cabinet usually located
at the top floor of the installation and has to be accessible only by trained and competent for maintenance
persons.
In the cabinet there are the rescue operation devices.

Safety
Atlas MRL lifts are designed and manufactured in accordance to the European Directive 2014/33/EU based
on the harmonized standards EN 81-20 and EN 81-50. Any deviations from the harmonized standards are
covered by EU type examination certificates.

The table below shows the protection devices against downwards/upwards overspeed and unintended car
movements (UCM) used in every model:

Overspeed downwards Ascending overspeed UCM

Atlas 2:1 EU Machine brake
Atlas Gigas R Machine brake
Atlas RPH Machine brake
Atlas RPH-R Progressive safety gear Machine brake Machine brake
Atlas L Progressive safety gear
Atlas NS Machine brake
Atlas Super Gigas Machine brake

The safety gear is tripped mechanically by an overspeed governor while the machine brake is activated
electrically by the overspeed governor safety contact.

 4. USE OF THE LIFT
DANGER: The maximum rated load of the lift is indicated in the car and should not be exceeded.

Important note: The use of pallets carriers, trolleys and other similar mechanisms could cause damage to
the lift, unless it was included in the design of the lift and especially in the design of the doors and car
(special sill).

Important note: During closing the automatic doors will reopen if an obstacle is detected. The detection is
achieved through the use of light curtains. However detection of small obstacles like walking sticks and dog
leashes might not be detected. For this reason the door area should be cleared as soon as possible.

Important note: Depending on the load of the lift, there is a possibility that the car could stop higher or lower
from the landing. Attention should be given during entering or leaving the car.

Also attention should be given to the gap between the car and the landing. Do not dispose garbage in the
gap.

The passengers of the lift should not move unnecessarily.

DANGER: It is forbidden to use the lift in dangerous situations like fire, floods, earthquakes, etc. Only trained
persons or person capable for maintenance should use the emergency key (for door release) and the key to
the controller.

Partially enclosed wells

If the well is partially enclosed, it should be constructed according to ΕΝ 81.20 (clause.5.2.5.2.3). The
openings should be designed in way that:
▪ No person is in danger of the moving parts of the lift
▪ No person could come in contact with parts of the lift or the inside of the well.

4.1 Emergency rescue procedure

DANGER: Only authorized and trained persons are allowed to execute a lift rescue operation and unlock the
doors with the triangular key. It is recommended, if there is no serious reason, the rescue operation to be
carried out by the personnel of the maintenance company.
If the car has stopped for other reason than power failure, it is strongly recommended to wait for the
maintenance company.
In case of emergency, passengers of the lift have to call the maintenance organization, by pressing the
alarm button.

Use of the Emergency Unlocking Key: Each of the landing doors can be unlocked from the outside with
the aid of a key, which will fit the unlocking triangle. Keys of this type shall be given only to a responsible
person. After an emergency unlocking, the locking device shall not be able to remain in the
unlocked position with the landing door closed.

Important notes: The specific emergency rescue instructions are provided in the form of a sticker inside the
controller cabinet.

4.2 Control Functions

4.2.1 Standard control functions
Single Automatic Push Button
The controller registers only one call from both the car and the landings. The first call registered has the
absolute priority and it is executed in direct travel.

Traction MRL Lifts – Atlas series T50_03_EN

V7_17.01.2023 10/37
Down collective
The controller registers every call from both the car and the landings. During the upward direction the landing
calls are ignored and only the car calls are executed in their natural sequence. During the downward
direction the landing calls are also served.

Full selective collective

The controller registers every activated call from both the car and the landings. The landing calls are
separated in up and down, activated by the respective push buttons in the L.O.P.s. During each travel the lift
serves the car calls in their natural sequence and the landing calls of the same direction.

Group control
The group control is used when there is a need for central management of two or more lifts landing calls.
This function optimizes the way that landing calls are distributed and served.

Overload control
The overload function is activated when the load of the car exceeds the predefined limit. In that case the lift
remains in the landing with the doors open until the load goes back to acceptable values. At the same time
the passengers are informed by acoustic and optical signals.

4.2.2 Extra control options

According to the requirements of the installation additional control functions may be added. The following are
brief descriptions of those functions:

Fire emergency
The fire emergency can be activated either by a fire detector or a key switch located on the main floor. When
activated, the lift travels immediately to the fire recall floor. The car remains there with open doors.

Firemen mode
The firemen mode is activated by a key switch located in the main landing. The lift travels immediately to the
fire recall floor where it remains with open doors. The firemen can enter the car and operate the lift by turning
on the key switch located in the C.O.P.

Full load control

When the car’s load exceeds the pre-set value, the lift serves only car calls and ignores the landing calls. In
case of group the landing calls are served by another lift.

Independent control
The function is activated by a key switch located in the C.O.P. The lift ignores the landing calls and serves
only the car calls.

Out of service function

The function is activated by a key switch located in the C.O.P. The lift travels to a recall floor where it
remains blocked after opening and closing the doors.

Pre-opening doors
The doors begin to open just before the car stops to a landing for time saving purposes.

Pre-announcing arrows with / without acoustic signal

It informs the passengers about the direction of the next travel using up or down arrows

Automatic car light off

The car lights are switched off when the lift remains idle for a programmable period of time.

Automatic return to predefined floor

The lift returns to the main or other floor after the lift has remained idle for a programmable period of time
and it remains there with closed doors.

Traction MRL Lifts – Atlas series T50_03_EN

V7_17.01.2023 11/37
Voice announcement
A device located either in the C.O.P. or the top of the car generates audible messages informing the
passengers about the lift’s position, travelling direction and door status.

Emergency evacuation (automatic)

In case of a power failure, the lift descends to the next floor or a predefined floor with the emergency lights
switched on. The lift opens the doors and the passengers can be evacuated. Until the power supply is
restored the lift remains at the floor with open doors and switched on the emergency light. The lift goes back
to normal operation as soon as the power is restored.

Building Management System interface

The controller can provide information about the lift status to the BMS by using
voltage free contacts or an online interface. The information can be used by
the BMS for its own functions.

EN81-70 “Accessibility to lifts for persons with disability”

The lift fulfills the standard EN81-70.

4.3 Control elements in the Car

The Car Operating Panel may consist of:

1. Display: During the normal operation of the lift it displays the car’s
actual position and direction. It is also used to display various messages in
order to inform the passengers or the lift technicians (i.e. MAINTENANCE,
OVERLOAD, FIREMEN MODE)
2. Autodialer face plate: The user can find some brief instructions about
the emergency call activation as well as optical signals about the call initiation
and call acceptance.
3. Logo of installation/maintenance company: It contains information
about the installation/maintenance company. In case of power failure, the logo
area is lit up.
4. Call buttons: The passenger can select the lift destination by pressing
one of the push buttons. As soon as the controller has registered the call, the
respective push buttons illuminates remaining in the same status until the call
is served.
5. Door open button: It is active only when the lift is not travelling. When
it is pressed the door can open, remain open or reopen depending on the
previous door status.
Standard COP with
mechanical push buttons

6. Alarm button: When it is pressed an emergency horn is activated and the autodialer establishes a two
way communication with a rescue call center.
7. Door close button: It is active only when the lift is not travelling. It is used to close the door
immediately without waiting the dwell time.
8. Key switches: They are used for activation of special functions such as firemen mode, car priority etc.

Car priority keyswitch (optional): Switching this key, the passenger can give preference to the push
button call given from inside of the cabin whilst all push button calls from the landings will be ignored.
The cabin travels directly to the floor selected from the cabin operating panel, and remain at that floor
with doors open, until next cabin call is entered. Return the key to normal mode and the lift will
automatically return to normal service. It is strongly advised that the key is removed when it is not used,
to be kept available in a safe place under user's responsibility.

 4.4 Control elements on the landings
The push buttons have a LED ring that lights up when the button is pressed. If the call is registered by the
controller then the LED continues to illuminate.

Standard LOP with Surface mounted indicator

mechanical push buttons

The number of buttons depends on the call automation of the lift. When Down Collective is used, only one
call button is necessary. When Full Selective Collective is used, two buttons are necessary in each LOP
except those of the upper and lower landing. Optionally, key switches may be added to the LOP for
activation of special functions.
The Indicators are usually placed above the landing door.
It includes a display indicating the lift actual position, travelling direction and ongoing direction. The display
indications may be accompanied by acoustic signals.

4.5 Door functions

Door reversing devices: There are three devices whose activation causes the reopening of the door: Light
curtain, door open button in the C.O.P. and force limiter on door drive

Door close button (optional): It is installed in the C.O.P. and it allows the immediate door close in case no
door reversing device is activated

5. MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
5.1 Access to the shaft/machinery spaces and equipment inside the shaft

Installation logbook
Major faults and repairs should be recorded in the installation logbook.

Examinations and tests after important modifications or after an accident

After important modifications or after an accident, a notified body must inspect the installation, to ensure that
it is in compliance with the national Regulations (see ΕΝ 81-20, Annex C).
During inspection all the safety measures, mentioned in the maintenance information, must be followed.
After the end of the inspection, a duplicate copy of the result should be attached to the installation logbook.

Taking the lift out of service

If during maintenance it is established from the maintenance organization that there is a hazard due to a
fault, which cannot be repaired immediately, or due to other factors, the installation must be taken out of
service.
The maintenance organization should take the installation out of service if it is established that the safety
components do not function properly or if it cannot guaranty the safe use of the lift for any other reason.

Environmental issues / disposal of materials

Lubricants, oils and other dangerous substances, which pollute the environment, must be disposed in
conformity with the regulations of each country of installation. The disposal should be done either by the
owner or the maintenance organization.
Parts, components and subsystems, which are replaced during a repair and / or modernization, must be
disposed accordingly to the agreement between the owner of the lift and the company having executed the
repair/modernization.

6. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION

Every lift should be escorted by maintenance instructions, which are compiled by the installer. (ΕΝ 13015,
§4.1).The maintenance should be done by a maintenance organization, which employs competent persons
for maintenance (see chapter: Definitions).

6.1 General
The maintenance work should be done in conformity with the maintenance instructions and based on
systematic maintenance checks. After these checks, the maintenance organization shall decide in conformity
with the maintenance instructions what is required to be done.
The maintenance operations must be carried out by competent persons and provided with the necessary
tools and equipment. Generally all work must be carried out while the lift is at a standstill. The maintenance
persons must maintain their competency through training.
The maintenance plan of the lift should be planned so that preventive maintenance is suitable for the
installation and maintenance time is as a short as reasonably practicable, without reducing the safety of
persons, in order to minimize the non-operational time of the installation.
For the maintenance schedule, it’s necessary to define the maintenance operations and the safety measures
for each one, based on a risk assessment (ΕΝ 13015, chapter 5.1).

6.2 Changes - modifications

The original maintenance instructions must be updated if the installation changes its intended use and / or
the environmental conditions existing on the completion of the installation.
The maintenance organization must inform the owner of the installation about any work to be carried out as a
consequence of a risk assessment especially for the access and / or the environment related to the building /
installation.
The maintenance organization must inform the owner in due time about necessary progressive upgrading of
the installation.

V7_17.01.2023 15/37
 6.3 Risk assessment
The maintenance organization must ensure that a risk assessment for the working area and for any
maintenance operations has been carried out taking into account the installer’s maintenance instructions and
all information supplied by the owner of the installation.

6.4 Dangerous situations – lift rescue operations

The maintenance plan should be adapted so as to take account of any predictable failures, e.g. those to
misuse, mishandling, deterioration, etc.
The maintenance organization must provide a 24 h, all year round call-out service for rescue of persons.
The maintenance organization must keep records of the result of each intervention due to a failure of the
installation. These records shall include the type of failures in order to detect any repetition. They shall be
available to the owner on request. The maintenance organization must put the installation out of service if a
dangerous situation is detected during maintenance, which cannot be eliminated immediately, and to inform
the owner of the installation of the need to keep it out of service until repaired.
The maintenance organization must organize rescue operations, even with subcontractor(s), and to make
provision for circumstances such as fire, panic, etc.

6.5 General information

The maintenance organization must be organized to provide the necessary spare parts for any repair. The
maintenance organization must also be able to provide competent maintenance person(s), given reasonable
notice, for any and inspection carried out by an authorized third party or for building maintenance works to be
carried out in the area reserved for the maintenance organization.

6.6 Maintenance schedule

According to the ΕΝ 13015 ‘Maintenance for lifts and escalators’ the frequency of maintenance interventions
is determined by the following non-exhaustive list:
▪ Number of trips per year, operating time and any non-operating periods of time
▪ Age and condition of the installation
▪ Location and type of building in which the installation is installed, as well as the needs of the user
and / or the kind of goods transported
▪ Local environment where the installation is situated, as well as external environmental elements, e.g.
weather conditions (rain, heat, cold etc.) or vandalism
▪ The maintenance instructions by the manufacturer for the safety components. For components that
are not safety related and must be maintained the relevant instructions by their manufacturer

Maintenance
The UPS must be tested during the periodical inspection of the lift (at least once a month):

• Check the input voltage to ensure proper charging.

• Run an emergency evacuation test* to check the effectiveness of the UPS and cause partial
discharge of batteries. In order the batteries to meet their full life cycle (3-4 years average), they
need periodically to partly dis-charge and re-charge.

*The emergency evacuation test must be triggered by turning off the mains switch of the building while the lift
is traveling and in any case is not positioned inside any level’s door unlocking zone. Don't try to trigger an
emergency evacuation by turning off the controller's mains switch because it will be ineffective.

7.1.2.2 Inverter-Valves

For inverters/ valves maintenance instructions refer to the manufacturer’s manual.

7.3 Light Curtain

7.3.1 Overview Information

Description
Light curtains fall into a category of equipment known as detection devices. Its main purpose is to detect any
person, animal or object that stands between the doors. When activated the door cannot close or if it is
already closing it stops and reopens.
Light curtains are supplied as a pair with a transmitter and receiver. The transmitter projects an array of
parallel infrared light beams to the receiver which consists of a number of photoelectric cells. When an object
breaks one or more of the beams a stop signal is sent to the guarded equipment. The light beams emitted
from the transmitter are sequenced, one after the other, and pulsed at a specific frequency. The receiver is
designed to only accept the specific pulse and frequency from its dedicated transmitter. This enables the
rejection of spurious infrared light and thus enhances their suitability as components within a safety system.

▪ High pressure water may cause serious damage on sensor units.
▪ Be careful with scratching the sensor units.
▪ Maintenance and inspection of the light curtains system shall be performed on a monthly basis. More
frequent maintenance may be necessary where car gates are subject to demanding environments of
dust, corrosion, moisture, grease, chemical or other conditions.
▪ Check and clean with a soft cloth the plastic lens filters on the edges to keep the system in optimum
working condition.
▪ Check to ensure receiver is not in direct sunlight. Swap the transmitter and receiver if the receiver is
affected.

7.4.3 Ropes maintenance tasks

Drako elevator ropes are lubricated during the maintenance process with the aim of reducing corrosion and
abrasion. But the quantity of lubricant so applied may only be enough to prevent lifts with sharply calculated
traction capability from slipping.
Since, however, dust and abrasion tend to thicken the lubricant; it is only in rare cases that this first
lubrication remains effective over the entire service life. And so DRAKO recommends that the lift ropes be
periodically lubricated during service.
Re-lubrication is not necessary as long as your fingers peak up a smear of oil if you touch the rope. As such
re-lubrication is carried out a number of ways – with a spray can or oil can or paint brush or similar. Only
small quantities need to be applied, following which the lift should be run up and down the whole distance
several times. In doing so, observe any slipping charachteristics and if necessary apply more lubricant. The
lubricant used should initially have low viscocity and good creep properties so that the inner parts of the rope
are also lubricated.
For this reason we recommend two DRAKO special rope lubricants, either DRAKO-LUBE or DRAKO-SOL,
which are both compatible with the lubrication applied at manufacture. As a further alternative DRAKO-

Traction MRL Lifts – Atlas series T50_03_EN

V7_17.01.2023 21/37
Outdoor has stood the time of test in use outdoors. It comes as a paste but takes on fluid form in the course
of operation.
DRAKO-FLUID SF is the fourth recommended lift rope lubricant. Is solvent free and therefore suitable for
use in automatic lubrication equipment.
Attention: for automatic lubricators available nowadays may only be used at a specific lift for a very limited
period of time. Otherwise, excess lubrication soon occurs with the risk of rope slip.

In cases of kink and flattening in the rope a replacement is required but in cases that a loop in rope appears,
this doesn’t mean necessarily that it has to be replaced..

Discarding criteria of wire ropes

▪ Wire breaks
The table below shows the discarding criteria for wire breaks that require immediate replacement of rope.
Those below apply for suspension, compensating and governor ropes and when a local regulation about this
kind of inspection is absent.

Where d is the diameter of the rope

▪ Reduction in wire diameter

Due to external and internal wire wear, over long service periods a continuous diameter reduction can take
place in lift ropes. In ropes with fibre core, this effect is exacerbated by the drying out and abrasion of the
fibre core. With a diameter reduction of 6% and more, relative to the nominal diameter, (ex. nominal diameter
Ø13 reduces to 12.2) the lift rope should be discarded.

Traction MRL Lifts – Atlas series T50_03_EN

V7_17.01.2023 22/37
 ▪ Corrosion
If there is evidence of abraded red particles exuding from the rope strand gaps, the rope diameter should be
checked in the affected rope sections for reduction in diameter. If the diameter reduction is:
▪ Up to 4%, a re-lubrication can slow down further reduction of diameter.
▪ 6% and more then generally speaking a rope change is compulsory.

Replacement
Replace all if one has reached the discard criterion:

Maintenance stuff should keep in mind that the amount of broken wires is not the only criteria for
replacement. All observations on rope deviation must be carefully evaluated.

7.5 Buffers
7.5.1 Overview information
Description: Buffers intended to bring the lift in rest in case of failure of the electrical devices that normally
stop the lift at the upper and lower landings. Buffers are selected based on the nominal speed of the lift as
also the total lift load. For rated speeds up to 1 m/s energy accumulation type buffers with non linear
characteristics (elastic) are used, while for higher rated speeds energy dissipation (hydraulic) buffers are
used.

high humidity at simultaneously increased temperature.

General checks for the buffers:

1. Check buffers position, must stand vertically (hydraulic and elastic)
2. Check for dirt or materials inside that may prevent compression (hydraulic and elastic)
3. Check for any liquids came in touch with the buffer (elastic)
4. Check for severe corrosion or decomposition that may weaken them (elastic)
5. Tip: Try to scrape it with a flat blade; if the blade penetrates the surface then the buffer must be
replaced (elastic)
6. Check attachment and mounting for tightness and alignment with the strike plate on the bottom of
the car (hydraulic and elastic)

7.6.2 OSG maintenance task list

A regular maintenance should be accomplished every:
6 months period (1st maintenance after 2 months the lift installed)
▪ Visual check of the overspeed governor and the tension device (for corrosion, dirt, noises)
▪ Check if the wire rope of the tension pulley remains under tension as well as the correct operation of
the wire rope’s loosening switch.
▪ Check the length of the wire rope of the overspeed governor. If it exceeds the correct length or the
tension sheave is making in contact with or comes near to the floor or near the end of its travel, it will
be necessary to shorten the governor rope, adjust it properly, to avoid tripping the safety switch of
the tension pulley.
▪ Make sure the tension device did not slide down the rail from its initial position.
▪ Check for wear in the wire rope of the overspeed governor. Replace broken or cracked wire ropes.1, 2
▪ Check if the mechanical parts of the overspeed governor are working properly and if at the same
time the contact at the upper part of the overspeed governor and tension pulley are tripped.
▪ Check the wire rope terminations and the grooves of the tension pulley. Clean the grooves from any
dirt in order to ensure the correct operation of the system.
▪ Check the pendulum moves easily and for any wears on the rubber ring on its roller.
▪ Check fastening of tensioner’s counterweight.

Traction MRL Lifts – Atlas series T50_03_EN

V7_17.01.2023 24/37
 ▪ Check the protective shields on both the governor and the tensioner are in place and proper
mounted.
▪ Check that all the washers and pins are in place.

Caution: These inspections should be more frequent in the case of an especially corrosive environment.

The overspeed governor does not need any lubrication. If the governor itself or its rope is found oiled, they
should be cleaned immediately or replacement.

There are moving elements in any governor that will carry out the action of interlocking. Dirt accumulation in
these elements can cause malfunctioning. It is of vital importance that both the installer and the maintenance
staff ensure that these elements are perfectly cleaned. On the other hand, governors have rustproof
protection in all cases but it is important that the maintenance staff determine the possible existence of a
corrosive process that may affect any mobile part of the element and stop its natural movement. This check
will be carried out by visually inspecting the surface condition and by carrying out a wedging using the
remote interlocking system.
