3.1.3 Installation tolerances
The overspeed governor must be installed

vertically.
The overspeed governor must be installed

in a way, that the governor rope runs par-
allel into the wheel groove!
The max. allowed tolerances are: max. ±2°

3.2 Installing the overspeed governor

in the machine room
Always pay attention to the overspeed Preparation

governor rotational direction during each
stage of installation. The overspeed governor can either be installed
directly on the machine room floor or on a support
structure.
Safety collar
Lifts complying with EN-81 require the
Concrete rope aperture to be kept as small as possi-
ble and to be fitted with a 50 mm high col-
lar. A corresponding safety collar must be fastened
to the floor before installation takes place.
If a cement floor is to be poured over the

concrete after installation, bear this in
mind when fitting the collar.

Screw M12x40
Installation procedure (1)

Always pay attention to the overspeed
governor rotational direction during each
stage of installation.
(1) If a supporting base is being used, it must be

screwed to the overspeed governor.
(2) Position the overspeed governor (with or
without base) and align the plumb line over (3-4)
the centre of the safety gear
(3) Mark the drill holes and put the stud anchor in Stud anchor: M10 or M12

porting base) ered)
(4) Fasten down the overspeed governor (with or
without supporting base) (2)

3.3 Roping of the overspeed governor
The overspeed governor can only operate perfect-

ly if the governor rope and the tension weight are OL35E-NA placed in shaft top

Check of the mechanical tripping (TS) 4 x
Check of the electrical tripping (CS) 4 x

After every operation (tripping) a visual check of the governor, the rope and the connection to the
safety gear syncronisation as well as a check of the flyweights (see 5.3.2/5.3.3) has to be performed.
If any damage is recognized the product has to be changed.

• Compare the measured value with the values
given in the chapter 4.1.
• Connect the rope clamp with the synchroniza-

The test must be repeated if the mechani-

cal tripping speed don’t correspond with
the values in chapter 4.1.
5.4.2.1 Measuring of the brake (lifting) force

with force gauge
Each test has to be documented
a) Detach the safety gear lever (1) from the rope

anchorage (2).
b) Fasten a clamp (3) with a force gauge (4) to the
governor rope.
c) Open the flyweight by hand (see mark A) or via
tripping device as long as they are going in
contact with the trip wheel shown at mark B.
d) Pull down the force gauge in the tripping
direction as long as the governor pulley or/and
the governor rope starts to move.
e) The shown value must be higher than the min.
brake force (ref. chapter 5.4.2)
f) Reset all to initial situation.
If the brake force is smaller the overspeed

governor must be replaced!
If, during this test, the governor rope moves

while the governor pulley stand still, the
sliding force of the rope inside the V-groove
is already smaller than the adjusted brake force.
This can be accepted when the force is higher than
the min. brake force expected.
Normally, with unworn V-groove, the sliding force
of the rope is higher than 1300N.
