Preface:

This is the first edition of CAN/CSA-Z10535.1, Hoists for the transfer of disabled persons — Requirements and test methods, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled ISO (International Organization for Standardization) Standard 10535 (second edition, 2006-12-15). It replaces the previous edition, published in 2003 with the same title, but under the designation CAN/CSA-Z10535 (adopted ISO 10535:1998).

Scope:

This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods only for hoists and body-support units intended for the transfer of disabled persons as classified in ISO 9999:2002:

• 12 36 03 Mobile hoists with sling seats
• 12 36 04 Standing mobile hoists
• 12 36 06 Mobile hoists with solid seats

This International Standard does not apply to devices that transport persons between two levels (floors) of a building.

It does not include methods for the determination of ageing or corrosion of such hoists and units.

The requirements of this International Standard are formulated with regard to the needs of both the disabled persons being hoisted and the attendant using the hoist. See more
