Railway applications - Interior glazing for rail vehicles

This document specifies the functional, performance and quality requirements for rail vehicle interior glazing including type testing, routine testing and inspection methods.
This document applies to all rail vehicles.
Determination of the size, shape, orientation and position of interior glazing is outside the scope of this document. These data form part of the interior glazing technical specification.
This document does not specify requirements for the interfaces between the interior glazing and the vehicle. Accordingly this document does not address issues relating to installation and structural integrity.
This standard does not apply to interior glazing with a surface less than 0,02 m2 and also emergency device casings (e.g. emergency hammers, passenger alarm systems, etc).

4 Dimensions and tolerances
4.1 Monolithic glass

The nominal thicknesses and thickness tolerances for a single sheet of glass are those given in the relevant

product standards (see Clause 4 of EN 12150-1:2019).

The thickness of a pane shall be determined as for the basic product. The measurement shall be taken at

the centres of the 4 sides, and away from the area of any tong marks (see Figure 1), which may be present.

An appropriate measurement tool shall be used.

The tolerance values applied to the width (B) and length (H) for monolithic glass are shown in Table 1.

4.2 Laminated glass

For laminated glass, each panel shall be compliant with the requirements of 4.1. Displacement d and

associated tolerances shall be in accordance with EN ISO 12543-5:2011 (Clause 4). Measurements shall

be done using an appropriate measurement tool.

For glazing compositions comprised of monolithic glass and various panels or solid panes, the

requirements of 4.1 and 4.2 may apply.
4.3 Flatness

Flatness for monolithic glass shall be according to EN 12150-1:2015+A1:2019, 6.3.

Flatness for laminated glass shall have a maximum pitch less than or equal to 2 mm/m.

5 Functional requirements
5.1 Interior glazing test requirements
5.1.1 Type tests

— The interior glazing design shall be validated by satisfactory completion of the assessments and tests

for:
— dimensions (see 4);
— appearance (see 6.1);
— optical distortion, if required in the technical specification (see 6.2.1)
— transmittance, if required in the technical specification (see 6.2.2);
— hard object impact (see 7.1.1);

5.2.1 Interior glazing

The interior glazing shall have a permanent marking that contains, as a minimum, the following

information:
— name or logo of glazing supplier

— date of manufacturing: month and the last two numerals of the year or a code by which this

information can be identified;
— type of glass used, e.g. L = laminated, T = toughened;
The marking shall be visible regardless of the installation method used.
The minimum height of characters shall be 4 mm.

The positioning and colour of the marking should be defined in the technical specification.

5.2.2 Display cover glazing

The glazing used for covering displays shall have a permanent marking that contains the following

information:

— date of manufacturing: month and the last two numerals of the year or a code by which this

— optionally, name or logo of the glazing supplier, if it does not obscure the information provided.

5.3 Service requirements
Interior glazing shall comply with the requirements set out in EN 45545-2.

Interior glazing shall comply with the contrast requirements set out in EN 16584-1.

Interior glazing shall be designed to withstand normal operational conditions, including induced static

and dynamic loadings and environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity, when installed

in a rail vehicle.

NOTE Typically, reference is made to EN 50125–1 temperature classes T1, T2 or T3.

Requirements for use in a specific environment which are in addition to the requirements set out in this

document shall form part of the technical specification.

The mechanical strength of the interior glazing with its installation for the following elements shall
