Communications Failure Code

Section 2.27.1.1.6: Phone Line Detection Code

ASME A17.1 2019/CSA B44-10 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators

  • Code states that each elevator phone needs to check, at least once in a 24hr period, that there is an active phone line
  • If an active phone line is not detected, it needs to activate an audible and visual alarm at the main landing panel
  • The LMA provides a simple, fully functional solution to meet the Communication Failure ASME Code requirements
  • The Janus Alarm System checks the complete phone line system, from the elevators to the machine room and from the machine room to the outside world
