Railway applications - Braking - Wheel slide protection
This European Standard specifies requirements for the design, testing and quality assurance of wheel slip prevention equipment. Each manufacturer is therefore responsible for taking every necessary step to make sure, that the quality of workmanship and construction is such as to ensure accordance with good engineering practice.
This European Standard is applicable to wheel slip prevention systems for pneumatic braking systems without taking the type of vehicles and track-gauge into consideration. The principles of this standard also apply as a reference for other types of braking systems. The system is designed to control the sliding of wheels of railway vehicles to prevent wheel damage and to minimise the braking distance by optimising the available adhesion between wheel and rail.

Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen für die Konstruktion, die Erprobung und die Qualitätssicherung der Gleitschutzanlagen fest. Es liegt daher in der Verantwortung jedes Herstellers, alle notwendigen Schritte zu unternehmen, um sicherzustellen, dass die Qualität der Verarbeitung und die Konstruktion so beschaffen sind, dass sie der guten Ingenieurspraxis entsprechen.
Diese Europäische Norm gilt für Gleitschutzanlagen mit pneumatischen Bremssystemen ohne Berück-sichtigung der Fahrzeugtypen und der Spurbreite. Die Grundlagen der vorliegenden Norm gelten auch als Referenz für andere Arten von Bremssystemen. Das System ist dazu ausgelegt, das Gleiten der Räder von Schienenfahrzeugen zu regeln, um Radschaden zu verhindern und den Bremsweg durch Optimierung des verfügbaren Kraftschlusses zwischen Rad und Schiene auf ein Mindestmaß zu beschränken.
Applications ferroviaires - Freinage - Anti-enrayeur
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences relatives a la conception, aux essais et a l’assurance qualité d’un anti-enrayeur. La responsabilité incombe donc a chaque fabricant de prendre toutes les mesures nécessaires pour s’assurer que la qualité d’exécution et de réalisation est telle qu’elle garantit la conformité a une bonne pratique technique.
La présente Norme européenne est applicable aux anti-enrayeurs pour les systemes de freinage pneumatique sans prise en compte du type de véhicule et de l’écartement de la voie. Les principes de la présente norme s’appliquent également comme référence pour d’autres types de systemes de freinage. Le systeme est conçu pour contrôler le glissement des roues de véhicules ferroviaires afin d’éviter d’endommager les roues et de réduire le plus possible la distance d’arret en optimisant l’adhérence disponible entre la roue et le rail.

SIST EN 15595:2009
EN 15595:2009 (E) 5 Introduction The objectives of fitting WSP systems to trains are to assist in achieving the following: 1) minimum extension in stopping distance compared to stopping on clean dry rails (i.e. good adhesion conditions); 2) minimum level of wheelset damage due to wheel slide or wheel ‘lock-up’; 3) minimum level of track damage; 4) for pneumatic brake systems, minimum increase in air consumption compared to a “non WSP” stop. The particular priority of these above objectives may vary for different classes of applications or even for a particular application. Trains fitted with WSP systems may consist of single vehicles, locomotive and trailing vehicles or may be high speed trains, multiple units, commuter trains, wagons, etc. Such trains will be equipped with a friction brake and may also be equipped with dynamic brakes, magnetic track brakes and/or eddy current brakes and may also be fitted with adhesion improving systems e.g. sanding. This standard covers both the system acceptance requirements as well as the application specific requirements for WSP Systems. Each manufacturer is responsible for taking every necessary step to make sure that the quality of workmanship and construction is such as to ensure accordance with good engineering practice. SIST EN 15595:2009
EN 15595:2009 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the minimum criteria for system acceptance/type approval of a new wheel slide protection system and implementation of accepted WSP to specific vehicle applications and route requirements, as well as requirements for wheel rotation monitoring (WRM). This includes the design, testing and quality assessment of the WSP system and its components. This European Standard is applicable to wheel slide protection systems for pneumatic braking systems without taking the type of vehicles and track-gauge into consideration. The general principles of this standard can also apply as a reference for other types of braking systems and other kinds of railway vehicles. The system is designed to control the sliding of wheels of railway vehicles during braking under degraded adhesion conditions to prevent wheel damage and to minimize the extension of the stopping distance under degraded adhesion conditions by optimizing the available adhesion between wheel and rail. This European Standard does not apply to the following categories of vehicles: 1) tramways; 2) light railways; 3) metros on steel wheels; 4) metros on rubber tyred wheels. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

EN 15595:2009 (E) 10 4 Requirements 4.1 General 4.1.1 General requirements A WSP system is designed to make the best use and improve available adhesion for all operating conditions by a controlled reduction and restoration of the brake force to prevent wheel sets from locking and uncontrolled sliding due to low adhesion. Thus the stopping distance is optimized and the extension of stopping distance and the occurrence of wheelset damage minimized. The WSP device shall not alter the functional characteristics and performance of the brakes. The design of the WSP system, its components and vehicle shall be such that the WSP system and its operation (in all modes) shall not have a detrimental effect on the constituent parts of the vehicle, bogie, train or track. An additional WRM system shall detect locked wheels, which shall be indicated to the driver, where fitted. 4.1.2 Service life This standard gives no rigid specification for service life performance. 4.2 WSP controller 4.2.1 Principle of operation The speed of rotation of the wheelsets is calculated on the basis of information provided by sensors, and monitored by regulators or automatic control systems. These transmit commands to the WSP actuators to reduce, hold or restore braking force (where applicable), either totally or partially. The WSP shall be available for operation on braking forces as soon as reference speed is greater than a threshold which is not higher than 6 km/h.
The WSP shall not alter the demanded braking force at reference speed less than a predefined threshold and if the brake force has been reduced by the WSP system then the brake force shall be raised to the demanded value.
This reference speed threshold shall not be higher than 3 km/h. The WSP shall not be capable of applying a greater brake force than that demanded.
The WSP shall not alter the demanded braking force at standstill except during test. WSP-actuators (e.g. WSP dump valves) are able to reduce braking force. 4.2.2 WSP watchdog (safety timer)
The independent monitoring or watchdog function shall be provided for all systems. The watchdog function shall remain permanently active including WSP tests, in order to restore the braking force required by the command if sustained release of the brake occurs. Actuation of this function other than during a test shall be indicated and recorded as a fault. If the watchdog function is activated, it shall be able to revert automatically to its stand-by position when the WSP resumes normal functioning. The reliability of the watchdog device shall conform to ER1 in 4.2.3.4. An independent monitoring or watchdog function, independent from the control algorithm and processor, shall support the automatic control system. The function shall prevent triggering of the actuator if total release of the brake, friction or dynamic brake (or a combination of them during blending), continues uninterrupted for a set SIST EN 15595:2009
EN 15595:2009 (E) 11 period which shall not be more than 10 s. Also after 10 s the monitoring system shall prevent an incorrect brake force step being sustained as a result of a command fault. The watchdog function shall remain active during WSP tests, in order to restore the braking force required by the command if sustained release of the brake occurs during the tests, or if undesired venting continues on completion thereof. 4.2.3 Reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS) 4.2.3.1 General The WSP shall be capable of initiating tests to detect a number of malfunctions, or faults. When the system is functioning the availability of speed sensors and the electrical circuits of the actuators (dump valves), particularly the open-circuit and short-circuit conditions, shall be detected. The reception of every command sent by the control system to the appropriate actuator (dump valve) shall also be monitored. The WSP shall initiate an automatic self-check when it starts up to ensure at least the electrical operational availability of the electronic control unit and the peripherals. Independent from the above testing, continuous internal tests inherent to the electronic system technology employed shall be performed to monitor the proper functioning and availability of the WSP. This shall be adapted to and defined on the basis of the specific architecture of each WSP. The testing and monitoring during the running of the vehicle shall not impair the braking functions. This testing and/or monitoring shall not jeopardise securing the train when it is stationary. Any faults detected shall be displayed as a fault code and stored in a fault memory. The WSP shall ensure that the fault codes remain stored in the memory in the event of a power supply failure. The fault codes shall be defined on the basis of a failure analysis and designed such that the smallest exchangeable unit can be identified. Separate information on the availability status of the WSP shall be provided for the operational state, in addition to the codes for “Fault” and “OK” indications for maintenance. Initialization and testing shall not generate incorrect information for those other functions which use the speed information provided by the WSP. The design of the WSP shall ensure that other functions than braking functions do not alter the proper function of the WSP. It shall be possible to manually initiate a WSP self test with the vehicle at standstill. The test shall include those on the sensors, actuators and the operational availability of the electronic control unit, plus faults that exist when stationary. The test sequence also comprises tests of the watchdog plus the complete venting of the brake cylinders by actuating the release valves/actuators. It shall be possible to read off all faults detected during the test run. Deletion of the memorized fault shall be confirmed by a test and by an indication of the correct functioning of the WSP equipment. The manual test sequence shall be cancelled if the vehicle is above 3 km/h. The testing and monitoring shall not release more than 50 % of the brakes within a vehicle at the same time. In addition, the above test may be initiated automatically when the vehicle is at standstill. The WSP shall be equipped with a service interface. If the reference speed signal is used by other functions, external to the WSP equipment, these other functions shall not affect the integrity of the reference signal or the WSP equipment. 4.2.3.2 Reliability A reliability study shall be carried out on the WSP system in accordance with EN 50126-1. SIST EN 15595:2009
EN 15595:2009 (E) 12 4.2.3.3 Maintainability The WSP shall be built to a modular design and modules with the same functions shall be interchangeable. Modules which are not functionally interchangeable shall not be able to be physically plugged into the incorrect location. 4.2.3.4 Safety The WSP shall have a safety analysis performed for the following anticipated events (ER): ER1: Unintended reduction or retention of a brake force on one control channel for a duration in excess of that specified in 4.5. ER2: Failure of any speed output used by a safety critical function (speed-dependent brake force application, electromagnetic track brake). ER3: Loss of the function indicating a locked wheelset for equipment approved for v > 200 km/h. The hourly probability of these anticipated events occurring shall be calculated by adequate numerical means, e.g. fault tree analysis. 4.2.3.5 Ambient temperature The WSP system shall be able to operate within the temperature classes as specified by EN 50125-1 inside vehicles and inside cubicles. NOTE EN 50155 applies for electronics. 4.2.3.6 Environmental specification and external appearance The externally mounted WSP components shall withstand corrosion due to normal atmospheric pollutants and operate without restrictions under conditions as specified in EN 50125-1. The WSP control unit shall operate within the requirements of EN 50121-3-1 and EN 50121-3-2. NOTE Further to EN 50121-3-2 for the WSP system, EN 50121-3-1 applies for the complete vehicle. The design and installation of the dump valve shall be such as to protect the venting ports against snow and ice. When required by the purchaser the WSP components shall show conformity with this requirement by testing or by design documentation. Components that are mounted at the outside of the vehicle shall be to IP65. The components of the WSP system shall be installed in a way so that the risk for persons who are working in the vehicle is minimized (for example injury caused by sharp edges).
4.2.4 Functional characteristics 4.2.4.1 Wheel diameter differences The system shall tolerate permitted differences of the wheel diameter differences on a given vehicle when evaluating speed. 4.2.4.2 Special features of WSPs for dynamic and mixed braking systems The characteristics according to 4.1.1 to 4.2.3 are also mandatory for WSP of dynamic brakes if applicable (except 4.2.2). Wheel slide shall be kept within the tolerance range as specified for friction brake in Clause 6.4.3.2 in the case of tractive units where the dynamic brake can be used independently of the friction brake (particularly for drag SIST EN 15595:2009
EN 15595:2009 (E) 13 brake applications on steep gradients) to prevent damage to the wheel tread and to minimize the influence on speedometer variations. The respective WSP shall become active immediately where the pneumatic brake force takes over in cases of failure of the dynamic brake or with mixed braking systems. Where separate WS
