Intermodal Loading Units - Marking - Part 3: Markings of semi-trailers related to rail operation
This European Standard provides a system for the identification and presentation of information about the ILU. The identification system is intended for general application, for example in documentation, control and communication (including automatic data processing systems), as well as for display on the ILU and other non ISO containers (i.e. which dimensions and testing parameters differ from those defined by the applicable ISO standards) used in European transport.
The methods of displaying identification and specific other data (including operational data) on the ILU by means of permanent marks are included.
This European Standard specifies:
a) an ILU identification system with an associated system for verifying the accuracy of its use, having mandatory marks for the presentation of the identification system for visual interpretation, and
b) a coding system for data on ILU size, with corresponding marks for their display;
c) mandatory operational marks;
d) physical presentation of the marks on the ILU.
This part of the European Standard prescribes the system of operational data for the codification of the semi-trailer. The codification assigns a maximum profile for the cover area available at the rail tracks to the semi-trailer in order to enable the selection of those rail tracks on which these semi-trailers can be transported without any danger.
This part of the European Standard prescribes furthermore the additional operational markings, which are necessary for railway operation.
This European Standard does not cover temporary operational marks of any kind, permanent marks, data plates, etc. which may be required by intergovernmental agreements, national legislation or non-governmental organisations other than CEN.
Intermodale Ladeeinheiten - Kennzeichnung - Teil 3: Kennzeichnungen von Sattelanhängern für den Bahnbetrieb
Diese Europäische Norm enthält ein System zur Identifikation und Kennzeichnung von ILU. Das
Identifizierungssystem ist für die allgemeine Anwendung zu benutzen, wie beispielsweise bei der
Dokumentation, Steuerung und Kommunikation (einschließlich automatischer Datenverarbeitungssysteme)
und auch für das Anzeigen der Informationen an ILU und anderen „Nicht-ISO-Containern“ (z. B. deren
Abmessungen und Prüfparameter sich von den in den anwendbaren ISO Standards unterscheiden) die im
europäischen Transport benutzt werden.
Die Art der Anbringung der Kennzeichnung und anderer Informationen (einschließlich betrieblicher Daten) an
ILU mittels permanenter Kennzeichnungen ist eingeschlossen.
Dieser Europäischen Norm legt fest:
a) ein System der Identifizierung von ILU, einschließlich eines Systems zur Kontrolle der korrekten Nutzung
des Systems mit obligatorischen Kennzeichnungen für die Identifikation zur visuellen Erkennbarkeit und
b) ein Kodierungssystem für die Daten zur Größe und zum Type der ILU mit den dazugehörigen Hinweisen
zur Anbringung der Kennzeichnungen;
c) obligatorische betriebliche Kennzeichnungen;
d) die physikalische Anbringungsmethode an der ILU.
Dieser Teil der Europäischen Norm schreibt ein System von betrieblichen Informationen für die Kodifizierung
von Sattelanhängern vor. Um die Auswahl der Bahnstrecke zu ermöglichen, auf der Sattelanhänger gefahrlos
transportiert werden kann, ordnet die Kodifikation der Sattelanhänger ein für die Bahnstrecken verfügbares
maximales Profil zu.
Dieser Teil der EN 13044 schreibt weiterhin zusätzliche betriebliche Informationen vor, welche für den
Bahnbetrieb nötig sind.
Diese Europäische Norm erfasst nicht vorübergehende betriebliche Kennzeichen irgendwelcher Art, bleibende
Kennzeichnungen, Datenschilder usw., die durch Vereinbarungen zwischen Regierungen, nationale Gesetzgebung
oder durch private Organisationen außer CEN eventuell gefordert werden.

Referenčne obremenilne enote - Označevanje - 3. del: Oznake sedlastih priključkov, povezanih z delovanjem železnice
Ta evropski standard podaja sistem za identifikacijo in predstavitev informacij o referenčnih obremenilnih enotah (ILU). Identifikacijski sistem je namenjen splošni uporabi, na primer pri dokumentiranju, nadzoru in komunikaciji (vključno z avtomatskimi sistemi za obdelavo podatkov), ter prikazu na ILU in drugih zabojnikih, ki niso v skladu s standardi ISO (tj. katerih mere in preskusni parametri se razlikujejo od tistih, opredeljenih v veljavnih standardih ISO), ki se uporabljajo pri evropskem prevozu. Vključene so metode prikaza identifikacijskih in drugih specifičnih podatkov (vključno z obratovalnimi podatki) na ILU s trajnimi oznakami. Ta evropski standard določa: a) identifikacijski sistem ILU s povezanim sistemom za preverjanje natančnosti njegove uporabe, ki ima obvezne oznake za predstavitev identifikacijskega sistema za vidno interpretacijo; b) kodirni sistem za podatke o velikosti ILU z ustreznimi oznakami za njihov prikaz; c) obvezne obratovalne oznake; d) fizično predstavitev oznak na ILU. Ta del evropskega standarda predpisuje sistem obratovalnih podatkov za kodifikacijo sedlastih priključkov. Kodifikacija dodeli maksimalni profil za krito območje, ki je na železniških tirih na voljo sedlastim priključkom, da se omogoči izbor tistih železniških tirov, po katerih se ti sedlasti priključki lahko prevažajo brez nevarnosti. Ta del evropskega standarda nadalje predpisuje dodatne obratovalne oznake, potrebne za delovanje železnice. Ta evropski sistem ne zajema začasnih obratovalnih oznak kakršne koli vrste, trajnih oznak, podatkovnih tablic itd., ki jih morda zahtevajo medvladni sporazumi, nacionalna zakonodaja ali nevladne organizacije, ki niso CEN.
General Information
Relations
Overview
EN 13044-3:2011 (CEN) specifies marking and operational identification for intermodal loading units (ILU) - specifically semi-trailers related to rail operation. The standard defines a system for permanent visual marks and codification used in documentation, control and automatic data systems to ensure safe, unambiguous transport of non‑ISO ILUs in European intermodal transport (road, rail, inland waterways and short sea). It complements EN 13044-1 and is compatible with EN ISO 6346 marking conventions where applicable.
Key topics and technical requirements
- ILU identification and verification: mandatory visual marks to present unit identity for documentation and automated systems.
- Operational codification for semi‑trailers: assignment of a profile code (according to UIC 596-6) that defines the maximum profile/clearance for rail carriage and enables safe selection of rail tracks. Two- or three‑digit profile numbers are used depending on semi‑trailer width (≤ 2 500 mm → two digits; > 2 500 mm and ≤ 2 600 mm → three digits).
- Mandatory operational marks: approval coding, profile code, saddle height (cm per UIC 596-5), body strength designation (EN 12642 standard or reinforced), pocket-wagon compatibility codes and scotch-block position.
- Physical presentation and placement: marking plates fixed on each side wall, preferably low and near the front end; owner may choose horizontal or vertical plate according to geometry.
- Mass and warning markings: optional MAX GROSS and TARE marks (kg) with minimum digit height of 50 mm; electrical hazard warning for trailers with ladders - black lightning symbol on yellow background, border, minimum 230 mm.
- Assignment and responsibility: operational codes must be allocated by a certified European Railway Undertaking (RU) or approved national authority; semi‑trailers must meet tests per UIC 596-5 before coding.
Applications and practical value
- Ensures consistent, machine- and human-readable identification of semi‑trailers in intermodal and combined transport.
- Enables rail operators and shippers to determine route compatibility and clearance envelopes quickly (profile code), improving safety and operational planning.
- Supports transport documentation, asset tracking, and automatic data processing in logistics and terminal systems.
- Used when preparing semi‑trailers for rail loading on pocket and recess wagons, verifying compatibility and saddle height requirements.
Who should use this standard
- Semi‑trailer and swap‑body manufacturers and designers
- Railway undertakings, terminal operators and intermodal service providers
- Fleet owners, logistics companies and freight forwarders involved in rail transport
- Certification bodies and national authorities allocating operational codes
