5. Tests, Maintenance and Repair
Tests:
New Lifting Magnets are delivered by us with a manufacturer's declaration of conformity, which confirms
compliance with the standards MD 2006/42 EEC and EN 13155.
As controlled in the EN 13155 testing of lifting magnets, delivery must be accompanied by no separate
audit log. The first examination must be 12 months from delivery.
We recommend to note the date of initial operation in the Test Certificate on page 59.
Use/Maintenance:
Before each use:
The lifting magnet has to be checked before each use for defects and mechanical function. The pole pieces
must not be deformed or knocked out. The locking mechanism must be intact.
Weekly:
Check the entire magnet, including lifting eye, for deformation, cracks or other defects. If the lifting lug
is bent or visibly worn, it must be replaced immediately. Check whether all nameplates are in place and
legible. Check the Pole pieces. If these are damaged or worn (holes, notches, etc.) then these must
be sharpened or replaced. This is documented by a new certificate.
The exceptional test by DGUV 109-017 has to be done by repair or extraordinary incidents (crash, collision).
A regular check shall be conducted by DGUV 109-017 at least every 12 months. Depending on the condi-
tions of the Lifting magnet checks at shorter intervals may be necessary.
We will gladly check your lifting magnets, either directly at your location or at our factory .
Our mobile testing service for lifting magnets checks all brands locally.
The mobile Breakaway Testing device can be brought directly to the workplace of the user so that the test
can be performed without much time and paperwork.
Spare parts for almost all of the outstanding lifting magnets are with our inspector, so that the device is
available again after a short time, even with defects. In long-term planning of this service is available with
very low travel expenses. We will advise you about testing per DGUV 109-017
Refurbished:
Repair work on lifting magnets may be carried out by persons who have the necessary knowledge and
skills (experts).
