Railway applications - Electromagnetic compatibility - Part 3-2: Rolling stock - Apparatus

This European Standard applies to emission and immunity aspects of EMC for electrical and electronic apparatus intended for use on railway rolling stock. EN 50121-3-2 applies for the integration of apparatus on rolling stock.
The frequency range considered is from DC to 400 GHz. No measurements need to be performed at frequencies where no requirement is specified.
The application of tests shall depend on the particular apparatus, its configuration, its ports, its technology and its operating conditions.
This standard takes into account the internal environment of the railway rolling stock and the external environment of the railway, and interference to the apparatus from equipment such as hand-held radio-transmitters.
If a port is intended to transmit or receive for the purpose of radio communication (intentional radiators, e.g. transponder systems), then the radiated emission requirement in this standard is not intended to be applicable to the intentional transmission from a radio-transmitter as defined by the ITU.
Immunity limits do not apply in the exclusion bands as defined in the corresponding EMC related standard for radio equipment.
This standard does not apply to transient emissions when starting or stopping the apparatus.
The objective of this standard is to define limits and test methods for electromagnetic emissions and immunity test requirements in relation to conducted and radiated disturbances.
These limits and tests represent essential electromagnetic compatibility requirements.
Emission requirements have been selected so as to ensure that disturbances generated by the apparatus operated normally on railway rolling stock do not exceed a level which could prevent other apparatus from operating as intended. The emission limits given in this standard take precedence over emission requirements for individual apparatus on board the rolling stock given in other standards.
Likewise, the immunity requirements have been selected so as to ensure an adequate level of immunity for rolling stock apparatus.
The levels do not however cover all cases which may occur with an extremely low probability of occurrence in any location. Specific requirements which deviate from this standard shall be specified.
Test requirements are specified for each port considered.
These specific provisions are to be used in conjunction with the general provisions in EN 50121-1.

La présente Norme Européenne s’applique aux aspects d’émission et d’immunité de CEM des appareils électriques et électroniques destinés à être utilisés à bord du matériel roulant ferroviaire. L'EN 50121 3 2 s’applique pour l’intégration des appareils à bord du matériel roulant.
La plage de fréquences concernée va du courant continu à 400 GHz. Aucun mesurage n’est nécessaire aux fréquences pour lesquelles aucune exigence n’est spécifiée.
L’application des essais doit dépendre des appareils eux-mêmes, de leur configuration, de leurs accès, de leur technologie et de leurs conditions de fonctionnement.
La présente Norme prend en compte l’environnement interne du matériel roulant ferroviaire et l'environnement externe du système ferroviaire, ainsi que les perturbations affectant les appareils provenant d'équipements tels que les émetteurs radioélectriques portables.
Si un accès est destiné à émettre ou recevoir des communications radio (émetteurs intentionnels de rayonnement, par exemple, systèmes de balise), alors les exigences relatives aux émissions rayonnées de la présente Norme ne s'appliquent pas à la transmission intentionnelle à partir d'un émetteur radio tel que défini par l'UIT.
Les limites d'immunité ne s'appliquent pas dans les bandes d'exclusion telles que définies dans la norme CEM correspondante pour les équipements radio.
La présente Norme ne s’applique pas aux émissions de transitoires lorsqu’on démarre ou lorsqu’on arrête les appareils.
L’objectif de la présente Norme est de définir les limites et les méthodes d’essai concernant les exigences d’essai d’immunité et d’émission électromagnétiques en matière de perturbations conduites et rayonnées.
Ces limites et ces essais représentent les exigences essentielles de compatibilité électromagnétique.
Les exigences d’émission ont été choisies pour assurer que les perturbations générées par l’appareil qui fonctionne normalement à bord du matériel roulant ferroviaire ne dépassent pas un niveau qui pourrait empêcher d’autres appareils de fonctionner comme prévu. Les limites d'émission données dans la présente Norme l'emportent sur les exigences d'émission des appareillages individuels embarqués sur le matériel roulant données dans les autres normes.
De la même manière, les exigences d’immunité ont été choisies pour assurer un niveau approprié d’immunité pour les appareils du matériel roulant.
Les niveaux ne couvrent cependant pas tous les cas qui peuvent apparaître avec une très faible probabilité en tout emplacement. On doit spécifier des exigences particulières qui s’écartent de la présente Norme.
Les exigences d’essai sont spécifiées pour chaque accès considéré.
Ces dispositions spécifiques sont destinées à être utilisées conjointement avec les dispositions générales de l'EN 50121-1.

Železniške naprave - Elektromagnetna združljivost - 3-2. del: Vozna sredstva - Naprave

Ta evropski standard se uporablja za vidike sevanja in odpornosti elektromagnetne združljivosti za električne in elektronske naprave, namenjene za uporabo v železniških vozilih. Standard EN 50121-3-2 se uporablja za integracijo naprav v voznih sredstvih.
Obravnavan frekvenčni razpon je od DC do 400 GHz. Za frekvence, za katere ni določenih zahtev, ni treba opraviti meritev.
Uporaba preskusov je odvisna od določenih naprav, njihovih konfiguracij, vrat, tehnologije in obratovalnih pogojev.
Ta standard upošteva notranje okolje železniškega vozila in zunanje okolje železnice ter motnje v napravah zaradi opreme, kot so ročni radijski oddajniki.
Če so vrata namenjena oddajanju ali sprejemanju za radijsko komunikacijo (namenski radiatorji, npr. sistemi transponderjev), se zahteva glede sevanja v tem standardu ne uporablja za namensko oddajanje radijskega oddajnika, kot je opredeljeno v ITU.
Omejitve odpornosti ne veljajo za pasove izključenosti, kakor je opredeljeno v ustreznem standardu glede elektromagnetne združljivosti za radijsko opremo.
Ta standard se ne uporablja za prehodno sevanje pri zagonu ali zaustavitvi naprave.
Cilj tega standarda je opredeliti mejne vrednosti in preskusne metode za zahteve glede elektromagnetnega sevanja in preskusa odpornosti v zvezi z prevodnimi in sevanimi motnjami.
Te mejne vrednosti in preskusi predstavljajo osnovne zahteve elektromagnetne združljivosti.
Zahteve glede sevanja so izbrane tako, da zagotavljajo, da motnje, ki jih proizvedejo naprave pri običajnem delovanju v železniških vozilih, ne presežejo ravni, ki bi lahko drugim napravam preprečila delovanje, za katerega so namenjene. Mejne vrednosti sevanja, podane v tem standardu, imajo prednost pred zahtevami glede sevanja posameznih naprav v voznem sredstvu, ki so podane v drugih standardih.
Prav tako so zahteve glede odpornosti izbrane tako, da zagotavljajo ustrezno raven odpornosti naprav v voznih sredstvih.
Vendar stopnje ne zajemajo vseh primerov, ki se lahko z zelo majhno verjetnostjo zgodijo na kateri koli lokaciji. Določiti je treba posebne zahteve, ki odstopajo od tega standarda.
Preskusne zahteve so določene za vsaka obravnavana vrata.
Te posebne določbe je treba uporabljati v povezavi s splošnimi določbami standarda EN 50121-1.

4 Performance criteria
The variety and the diversity of the apparatus within the scope of this standard make it difficult to define
precise criteria for the evaluation of the immunity test results.
A functional description and a definition of performance criteria, during or as a consequence of the
EMC testing, shall be provided by the manufacturer and noted in the test report, based on the criteria
A, B, C defined in EN 50121-1:2017.

5 Conditions during testing
It is not always possible to test every function of the apparatus. The tests shall be made at a typical
operating mode considered by the manufacturer to produce the largest emission or maximum
susceptibility to noise as appropriate in the frequency band being investigated consistent with normal
applications. The conditions during testing shall be defined in a test plan (see basic standard of the
EN 61000-4 series).
If the apparatus is part of a system, or can be connected to auxiliary apparatus, then the apparatus
shall be tested while connected to the minimum configuration of auxiliary apparatus necessary to
exercise the ports in accordance e.g. with EN 55022:2010, Clause 8.
The configuration and mode of operation shall be specified in the test plan and the actual conditions,
during the tests, shall be precisely noted in the test report.
If the apparatus has a large number of similar ports or ports with many similar connections, then a
sufficient number shall be selected to simulate actual operating conditions and to ensure that all the
different types of termination are covered (e.g. 20 % of the ports or at least four ports).
The tests shall be carried out within the specified operating range for the apparatus and at its nominal
supply voltage, unless otherwise indicated.
6 Applicability
The measurements in this standard shall be made on the relevant ports of the apparatus.
It may be determined from consideration of the electrical characteristics, the connection and the usage
of a particular apparatus that some of the tests are not applicable (e.g. radiated immunity of induction
motors, transformers). In such cases, the decision not to test has to be recorded in the test plan and
test report.
If not otherwise specified, the EMC tests shall be type tests.
7 Emission tests and limits
The emission tests and limits for apparatus covered by this standard are given on a port by port basis.
Measurements shall be performed in well-defined and reproducible conditions for each type of
disturbance.
The emission limits defined in EN 61000-6-4, Table 1 (Emission – enclosure port) shall be complied
with.
Measurement distance is 10m according line 1.1 in Table 1 of EN 61000-6-4. A measurement distance
of 3m may be used with the limit increased by 10 dB.
Traction converters and auxiliary converters over 50 kVA cannot be tested individually but when the
vehicle is tested as a whole in accordance with EN 50121-3-1.
The description of the test, the test methods and the test set-up are given in Basic Standards which
are referred to in Tables 1 and 2.
The contents of these Basic Standards are not repeated here, however modifications or additional
information needed for the practical application of the tests are given in this standard.
NOTE The reference to “Basic Standard“ is intended to be limited to those parts of the standard that give
the description of the test, the test methods and the test set-up.
