<strong>DOE</strong>-<strong>STD</strong>-I090-<strong>96</strong> (Rev-I)14.2.5.3 Periodic Inspectiona. A qualified inspector shall perform acomplete inspection at the following intervals:1. Normal service-yearly. Inspectequipment at site ofuse.2. Heavy service-semiannually. Inspectequipment at site ofuse unless external conditionsindicate that disassembly should be done to permitdetailed inspection.3. Severe service-quarterly. Inspectequipment at site ofuse unless external conditionsindicate that disassembly should be done to permitdetailed inspection.4. Special or infrequent service-asrecommended by a qualified person before thefirst such use <strong>and</strong> as directed by the qualifiedperson for any subsequent uses.b. Lifting device service is defmed as follows:1. Normal~peration with variousweights within the rated load limit, or uniformloads less than 65 percent ofrated load.2. Heavy~peration within the ratedload limit that exceeds normal service.3. Severe~peration at normal or heavyservice under abnormal operating conditions.c. This inspection shall include the items listedin Section 14.2.5.2, "Frequent Inspection," inaddition to the following:1. Loose bolts or fasteners.2. Cracked or worn gears, pulleys,sheaves, sprockets, bearings, chains, <strong>and</strong> belts.3. Excessive wear offriction pads,linkages, <strong>and</strong> other mechanical parts.4. Excessive wear at hoist-attachingpoints <strong>and</strong> load-support shackles or pins.5. External evidence ofdamage to motorsor controls.d. A qualified inspector shall inspect fixturesnot in regular use according to periodic inspectionrequirements before placing them in service.e. Dated reports ofeach periodic inspectionshall be prepared. They shall be kept on file <strong>and</strong>shall be readily available. A sample load test <strong>and</strong>inspection form is included as Exhibit I at the endofthis section. This form is intended to be asample only <strong>and</strong> is not intended to be m<strong>and</strong>atory.14.2.6 Testing14.2.6.1 Operational TestNOTE: Special lifting devices for shippingcontainers weighing 10,000 lb or more that areused for radioactive materials must be tested inaccordance with ANSI NI4.6.a. Modified orrepaired lifting devices shall betested before initial use to ensure compliance withthe requirements ofthis section (test reports kepton file). Testing shall include the following:1. Lifting devices with moving parts shallbe tested to confirm that the lifting device operatesin accordance with manufacturer's instructions.2. Lifting devices with manually operatedor automatic latches shall be tested to verify thatthe latches operate in accordance withmanufacturer's instructions.14.2.6.2 Rated Load Testa. All new, altered, modified, or repaired liftingdevices shall be tested <strong>and</strong> inspected before use.The results ofthe test <strong>and</strong> inspection shall bedocumented in the equipment history file.b. The rated capacity shall not be more than 80percent ofthe maximum load sustained during thetest. Test loads shall not be more than 125percent ofthe rated capacity unless otherwiserecommended by the manufacturer.c. The rated load test shall consist ofthefollowing:1. Hoist the test load a sufficient distanceto ensure that it is supported by the lifting device,or apply the required load if the test is made usinga testing machine. Personnel shall remain clear ofsuspended loads.2. Visually inspect the lifting device fordeformation, cracks, or other defects after the loadtest is completed.14-5Chapter 14Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices
