Over Speed Governors · made in India

The over speed governor is the elevator's primary mechanical safety device: if the car descends faster than its rated speed, the governor trips and activates the safety gear that grips the guide rails and stops the car. It is governed by IS:7237, and a lift inspector will not clear an installation without a compliant, correctly-set governor. SEE supplies and fits over speed governors to IS:7237 for new lifts and, importantly, for safety upgrades on older installations.

A large part of the demand here is the safety-upgrade market — ageing lifts with worn, mis-set or non-compliant governors that fail inspection. We supply the governor, the matched tension weight and rope, and the setting/calibration, restoring the lift's core safety chain to code, regardless of the original lift brand.

Buyer questions

FAQs.

What does an over speed governor do?
It is the lift's primary mechanical safety device: if the car descends faster than its rated speed, the governor trips and activates the safety gear that grips the guide rails and stops the car. It is required under IS:7237.
Can you upgrade the governor on an old lift?
Yes — a large part of our work is the safety-upgrade market: replacing worn, mis-set or non-compliant governors on ageing lifts of any brand, with calibration and inspection documentation.
Do you set the tripping speed?
Yes. We set and verify the tripping speed to the lift's rated speed on site, supplying the governor as a matched assembly with rope, tension weight and pulley.
Will it pass a lift inspection?
That is the point — an IS:7237-compliant, correctly-set governor is required for inspector clearance, and we supply and set it to that standard with documentation.
