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).

6.1.1 General
Appearance defects (blemishes) are characteristics of one of the following elements of the interior glazing
or the processes in its manufacture:
— glazing material(s);
— interlayer(s);
— assembly;
— handling.
To ensure an acceptable quality of vision, interior glazing shall be inspected according to the procedure
set out in 6.1.2. Any defects shall be classified according to 6.1.3 and the number and size of such defects
shall not exceed the limits listed in 6.1.4.
6.1.2 Visual inspection procedure for appearance defects
6.1.2.1 General
Interior glazing shall be inspected to identify defects.

6.1.2.2 Visual inspection procedure with a darkened chamber
Interior glazing shall be inspected in a darkened test chamber equipped with a vertical luminous screen.
The light from the luminous screen passing through the glazing shall be used to determine by a visual
inspection if there are defects in the interior glazing. If defects are found, their type and size shall be
recorded and the acceptability of the interior glazing determined. The test arrangement is shown in
Figure 5.

The luminous screen can be NCS 7502-B grey or equivalent. The use of any other screen colour shall be
part of the interior glazing technical specification.
The interior glazing shall be assessed according to the following procedure:
— The interior glazing shall be positioned vertically in front of the luminous screen at a distance of 3 m.
— The glazing shall be clean, dry and free of deposits of material or fluid that could affect the inspection.
— The luminous screen shall provide a uniform light level of at least 500 lx measured at the location
where the glazing will be inspected.
— The inspector shall be positioned behind the interior glazing at a distance of 1,5 m.
— The examination duration shall be equal to 1 min for an interior glazing with a surface area less or
2
equal to 1,5 m and shall be equal to 2 min for an interior glazing with a greater surface area.
— The interior glazing shall be divided into sufficient inspection zones to cover the entire surface of the
interior glazing. Inspection zones should be arranged to minimize overlapping.

The recommended size of the inspection zones is 0,5 m × 0,5 m.
— The inspector shall examine the complete interior glazing surface by looking through each inspection
zone in turn. The inspector shall change position laterally and vertically as required to look through
each inspection zone perpendicularly to the luminous screen.
— The position of any suspect points identified during the examination shall be recorded.
The inspector shall remain in the test chamber for the duration of the visual inspection.
At the end of the visual inspection, if any suspect points have been identified, the inspector shall re-
examine the glazing to analyse them and to classify them in accordance with 6.1.3.
Only features identified as suspect points during the visual inspection shall be analysed and classified.
The criteria set out in 6.1.4 shall be used to determine if the interior glazing is acceptable.

1 Scope
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.
2
This document does not apply to interior glazing with a surface less than 0,02 m 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.

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.

5.3 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
