prEN 13232-4:2014 (E)
Foreword
This document (prEN 13232-4:2014) 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 CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 13232-4:2005+A1:2011.
This series of standards “Railway applications – Track – Switches and crossings for Vignole rails” covers the
design and quality of switches and crossings in flat bottomed rail. The list of Parts is as follows:
 Part 1: Definitions
 Part 2: Requirements for geometric design
 Part 3: Requirements for wheel/rail interaction
 Part 4: Actuation, locking and detection
 Part 5: Switches
 Part 6: Fixed common and obtuse crossings
 Part 7: Crossings with moveable parts
 Part 8: Expansion devices
 Part 9 : Layouts
Part 1 contains terminology used throughout all parts of this series. Parts 2 to 4 contain basic design guides
and are applicable to all switch and crossing assemblies. Parts 5 to 8 deal with particular types of equipment
including their tolerances. These use Parts 1 to 4 as a basis. Part 9 defines the functional and geometric
dimensions and tolerances for layout assembly.
The following terms are used within to define the parties involved in using the EN as the technical basis for a
transaction:
Customer the Operator or User of the equipment, or the Purchaser of the equipment on the User's behalf.
Supplier the Body responsible for the use of the EN in response to the Customer's requirements.
prEN 13232-4:2014 (E)
1 Scope
This European Standard determines the interface between moveable parts and the actuation, locking and
detection equipment, and defines the basic criteria of switches and crossing with moveable parts in respect of
the interface.
It concerns:
 rules parameters and tolerances for alternative positions of the moveable parts;
 criteria and limits for the forces which move and restrain the moveable parts.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions given in prEN 13232-1:2013 and the
following apply.
3.1 General
3.1.1
actuation system
system that ensures the correct movement of the moveable parts of the switch and crossing. The actuation
system includes the rods, links and actuators needed to ensure the operation. The actuation system may be
either electric, hydraulic, manual, etc.
3.1.2
locking device
device that ensures the moveable part of the switches and crossings stays in the desired position. It
guarantees the correct position of the moveable part during the passage of the vehicle
3.1.3
detection device
device that enables the verification of the correct positioning of the moveable part of the switch and crossing.
It enables the signalling to decide whether safe train passage can be guaranteed
prEN 13232-4:2014 (E)
3.1.4
trailability
ability of actuator and locking systems to permit the trailing of the switches and crossings by a vehicle. There
are two different trailing devices – trailable devices and non-trailable devices
3.1.4.1
trailable devices
devices which permit trailing as non-standard operation:
In this case, parts of the switch may be slightly damaged. The switches and crossings will only be
released for further operation after full inspection of switch and actuator.
devices which permit trailing as standard operation:
In this case the actuator and locking system permits the trailing of the switches and crossings by a
vehicle, without damaging any part of it.
In both cases the maximum trailing speed is defined
3.1.4.2
non-trailable devices
devices which do not permit the trailing of the switches and crossings by a vehicle
3.1.5
single or multiple drives
3.1.5.1
single drive
drive operated at one position, i.e. the switch toe
3.1.5.2
multiple drives
drives operated at more than one position. In this case there may be either single or multiple locking
3.1.6
lubrication free switch operation
3.1.6.1
non-lubricated slide baseplates
no lubrication on the slide baseplates is required to ensure the correct actuation of the switch and crossing.
This can be assured by special baseplates, roller systems or other devices
3.1.6.2
lubrication free actuator and locking system
no lubrication is required to ensure the correct actuation and locking of the switch and crossing
Note 1 to entry: Track lubrication may still be required, for other reasons.
3.1.7
open and closed position
3.1.7
