Safety a top priority

Safety is not just our key issue but our first priority!

Security is the first priority

As a manufacturer of lifts and elevators, which are used and transport thousands of citizens daily, security is not just our main concern but our first priority! HYDRO-CON can proudly say that we have had zero serious person accidents since we started in 1988 - and we intend to keep it that way.  New stricter rules such as requirements for annual safety inspections on all installations help to keep the number of user accidents very low in the industry, as potential errors and dangers can be proactively fixed. The safety of all employees as well as external installers who work specifically with the service and maintenance of our products every day are just as important a safety concern for us.

Continuous work with safety

As a manufacturer and total supplier, we have an extraordinary task in ensuring that our products meet all safety standards and our company goal of delivering a stable, reliable and user-friendly product to the end user. We live up to the Labor Inspectorate's Order for lifts and elevators, we are ISO certified with the recognized and Dan-credited notified body Kiwa / Inspecta, and all our products are CE-marked and either type-approved by Jysk Teknologisk Institut or unit-verified.

We only use CE-marked and elevator-approved safety components. Furthermore, our own developed and type-approved free fall protection is a focal point for our safety on most of our passenger-carrying products.

What is a elevator free fall test?

An elevator free fall test is a monitored test of a catching device on an elevator where you actively bring the elevator into free fall with full weight load. The purpose is to check that the catching device is working properly. There are statutory requirements that you must make fall tests annually. All our products undergo a full free fall test with the maximum weight load annually and a simulated drop test at least every three.  As seen in the video below, there is an LSPO Platform Elevatorlift which has a maximum weight load of 400 kg, therefore there are weights in the cabin with the corresponding weight. In the event of a break on the primary chain drive system, an elevator would immediately go into free fall. But as seen in the video, the elevator falls only about 10 cm before the fall arrest grips (catching device) and prevents a free fall.
