EN 15355:2008/FprA1

Railway applications - Braking - Distributor valves and distributor-isolating devices

This European Standard applies to distributor valves and distributor-isolating devices.
The distributor valves contained in this European Standard are of graduated release type. Direct release types are not included.
Functionally they are regarded as not containing relay valves of any type, even if the relay valves are physically an integral part of the distributor valves.
This European Standard applies to both distributor-isolating devices mounted separate from the distributor valve and distributor-isolating devices integral with the distributor valve.
This European Standard specifies the requirements for the design, testing and quality assurance of distributor valves and distributor-isolating devices.
For interoperable freight wagons, these devices which are operated by compressed air according to EN 14198 are assessed according to the respective technical specification of interoperability.

Foreword
This document (EN 15355:2008/FprA1:2010) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256
“Railway applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
The “Recast” Directive 2008/57/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the interoperability of
th
the rail system within the Community was published on 17 June 2008.

The two previous EU Directives 96/48/EC and 2001/16/EC on the interoperability of the High Speed and
th
Conventional rail systems within the Community will therefore be repealed with effect from 19 July 2010.

At this date the harmonised standards for the railway field will have to refer to the new Directive.

In order to fulfil this requirement, it has been decided to produce Amendments for the ENs that will not have
undergone the revision process by the date of the repeal.

This document gives the necessary elements that have been identified by the CEN Consultants for the
amendment of EN 15355:2008.
