6.7.1 Infrared anti-crush safety device
Infrared sensors are mounted between the treads to avoid crushing between the steps and any
risk of crushing under the ramp.
Infrared sensors prevent crushing between the steps and any risk of crushing under the ramp
If the IR sensors are tripped when the FlexStep is transformed from a stair to a platform or the
other way around, movement will cease and an acoustic alarm will be sounded (see section
10.8).
6.8 Safety barriers
6.8.1 Ramp as safety barrier
The ramp on the platform will tilt up and lock before the lift begins to move. The ramp will now
act as a safety barrier. When the lift moves down to the lower level, the ramp will automatically
tilt down (keep pressing the button) and act as a drive-on/drive-off ramp.
