Railway applications - Braking - Requirements for the brake system of coaches

This standard defines basic requirements for the braking of passenger coaches in trains hauled by
locomotives as described in EN 14198, using UIC air brakes (RIC traffic) operating on routes of the European
railways and their infrastructure systems.
This standard covers:
.all new vehicle designs of the passenger coach type of construction (day coaches, restaurant cars,
sleeper coaches, driving trailers, baggage cars, etc.);
.all new constructions of existing vehicle types;
.other vehicles (e.g. motorail vehicles) that may also be included in passenger trains;
.all major overhauls of the above-mentioned vehicles if they involve redesigning or extensive alteration to
the brake system of the vehicle concerned.
The vehicles meet the following technical criteria:
.inclusion in trains in accordance with EN 14198 in regular railway operation is possible (coupling
capacity);
.the maximum speed is between 100 km/h and 200 km/h;
.the lower vehicle limitations of UIC 505-1 (WIs 00256150/151/152) are adhered to.

Bahnanwendungen - Bremsen - Anforderungen für die Bremsausrüstung von Reisezugwagen

Diese Europäische Norm legt grundsätzliche Anforderungen für die Bremsung von Reisezugwagen in nach
EN 14198 definierten lokbespannten Zügen mit UIC-Druckluftbremsen (RIC-Verkehr) fest, die auf den Strecken der europäischen Eisenbahnen und ihren Infrastruktursystemen verkehren.
Anhang E beschreibt Reisezugwagen, die ausschließlich innerhalb des Vereinigten Königreiches verkehren.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für:
-   alle neu zu konstruierenden Fahrzeuge der Reisezugwagenbauart (Sitzwagen, Speisewagen, Schlafwagen, Steuerwagen, Gepäckwagen, Liegewagen;
-   alle zeitversetzten Nachbauten von vorhandenen Fahrzeugbauarten;
-   sonstige Fahrzeuge (z. B. Autotransportwagen), die auch in Reisezügen mitgeführt werden können;
-   alle größeren Grundüberholungen der o. g. Fahrzeuge, wenn diese Neukonstruktion oder umfassende Änderung der Bremsanlage ) des betreffenden Fahrzeuges einschließt.
Die Fahrzeuge entsprechen folgenden technischen Kriterien:
-   eine Einstellung in Züge nach EN 14198 ist im regulären Bahnbetrieb möglich (Kuppelbarkeit);
-   die Höchstgeschwindigkeit beträgt größer/gleich 100 km/h bis 200 km/h;
-   die untere Fahrzeugbegrenzung nach prEN 15273-1, prEN 15273-2, prEN 15273-3 wird eingehalten.

Applications ferroviaires - Freinage - Exigences concernant le système de freinage des voitures voyageurs

Cette norme définit les exigences fondamentales pour le freinage des voitures à voyageurs dans les trains tractés par locomotive conformes à l'EN 14198 avec des freins pneumatiques UIC (transport RIC), roulant sur les réseaux européens et leurs systèmes d'infrastructure.
L’Annexe E décrit les voitures pour voyageurs qui circulent à l’intérieur du Royaume-Uni.
Cette norme est applicable à :
   tous les véhicules nouvellement construits du type de construction de voitures à voyageurs (voitures à places assises, voitures-restaurants, voitures-lits, remorques à cabine de conduite, fourgons à bagages, voitures-couchettes) ;
   l'ensemble des améliorations différées des types de véhicules existants ;
   les autres véhicules (par exemple les wagons porte-autos) qui peuvent également être tractés dans les trains de voyageurs ;
   toutes les grandes révisions des véhicules précités, si elles incluent une ré-étude ou des modifications conséquentes du système de freinage ).
Les véhicules correspondent aux critères techniques suivants :
   le remaniement de composition des trains selon l’EN 14198 est possible sur une simple voie (sécabilité) ;
   la vitesse maximale est supérieure/égale à 100 km/h jusqu'à 200 km/h ;
   le gabarit inférieur du véhicule selon les prEN 15273-1, prEN 15273-2, prEN 15273-3 est maintenu.
