How we can help
JPC supports goods lifts through structured inspection, electrical and control-system diagnosis, repair, servicing and modernisation. Work is planned around the lift's design, manufacturer instructions, operating environment and applicable safety requirements.
Capabilities
- Breakdown diagnosis and electrical fault-finding
- Routine preventive-maintenance programmes
- Functional checks of door sensors and interlocks
- Inspection of door locks, landing controls and limit switches
- Checks for wear, corrosion and damage to cables, ropes or chains
- Hydraulic oil level, condition and leak checks
- Control-panel repair, rewiring and modernisation
- Safety-device testing and documented maintenance findings
- PLC, relay, contactor, sensor and drive replacement
- Coordination of corrective work following statutory examination
How JPC works
From the first review to a tested result.
Practical options
Suitable repair, upgrade or installation options are explained so the scope can be agreed before implementation.
Implementation
Parts, software, panel work and site installation are coordinated around the agreed technical solution.
Testing & handover
The completed work is checked, commissioned where applicable and handed over with clear operating information.
Preventive maintenance priorities
Safety functions must work every time
A goods lift can continue moving even while wear, leakage, unreliable sensors or unauthorised alterations are developing. Planned maintenance gives these issues a chance to be identified and corrected before they cause a breakdown or expose people and property to unnecessary risk.
Doors & interlocks
Functional checks of landing-door sensors, locks and interlocks so movement is prevented when a door is not safely closed and locked.
Lifting system
Inspection for visible wear, corrosion, broken strands, poor anchorage or abnormal tension in suspension cables, wire ropes or chains, as applicable.
Hydraulic equipment
Checks of oil level and condition, hoses, fittings, cylinders, seals, valves and the power unit for leakage, contamination or deterioration.
Controls & protection
Testing of limit switches, emergency stops, contactors, relays, sensors, motor protection, alarms and control-panel functions.
Malta workplace requirement
Maintenance and statutory examination are both important
The Occupational Health and Safety Authority states that the owner or occupier of a workplace with a goods lift must submit an Examination Report prepared by a competent person—a warranted Mechanical or Electrical Engineer—once every six months. The report must be submitted to OHSA within 28 days of the examination.
Routine servicing does not replace that statutory examination. JPC can maintain, diagnose, repair and upgrade the equipment, and can carry out corrective work identified during an examination. The exact legal and technical requirements depend on the lift's design, classification, age, use and any previous modifications.
