Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
Two shut-off valves may be required.
(1) ASME requires that a shut-off valve be
				  installed in the machine room.
(2)
				  When the pit is lower than the machine, a shut-off valve shall be installed in
				  the pit.
(3) A separate shut-off
				  valve is not required in the pit for hydraulic elevators equipped with a
				  safety/rupture valve that rotates no more than 180 degrees to stop the flow of
				  hydraulic fluid and has a safety shut-off handle capable of being grasped.
EXCEPTION:
Limited use/limited application (LULA),
							 special purpose and residential elevators are exempt from this section.
