This part of EN 13231 series defines the technical requirements and measurements for the acceptance of works for longitudinal and / or transverse reprofiling of railway rail heads in plain line, switches and crossings and expansion devices.It applies to Vignole rails of 46 kg/m and above according to EN 13674 1.

This document specifies requirements and provides the test method for medical gloves for single use in order to determine freedom from holes.

This document specifies the requirements for the rescue coupler for train sets compliant with the Technical Specification for Interoperability Locomotives and Passenger rolling stock (TSI Loc & Pas).This document defines the rescue coupler foreseen to connect rescue vehicle equipped with draw hook, according to EN 15566 together with the train to be rescued equipped with Type 10 automatic coupler according to EN 16019.

This European Standard specifies general safety requirements and test methods for equipment used in classified swimming pools as specified in EN 15288-1 and EN 15288-2.Where specific standards exist, this general standard should not be used alone.Special care is required in applying this general standard alone to equipment for which no product specific standard has yet been published.

This document defines the requirements for buffers with 105 mm, 110 mm and 150 mm stroke for vehicles or units which use buffers and screw coupling. It covers the functionality, interfaces and testing procedures, including pass fail criteria, for buffers.NOTE 1 Typically, buffers with a stroke of 105 mm are used on freight wagons and locomotives, buffers with a stroke of 110 mm are used on coaches and locomotives and buffers with a stroke of 150 mm are used on freight wagons.It defines the different categories of buffers, the space envelope, static and dynamic characteristics and energy absorption.It defines the static and dynamic characteristics of the elastic systems.It also defines the requirements for buffers with integrated crash elements (crashworthy buffers) for tank wagons for dangerous goods.The requirements of this document also apply to buffers of locomotives and passenger coaches which are bound to meet the crashworthiness requirements of EN 15227 for normal service only. The properties for the energy absorbing function are defined in EN 15227 and the requirements specified in Clause 7 for tank wagons for dangerous goods are not applicable to the buffers of these locomotives and passenger coaches.Diagonal buffers are excluded from this document.For the crashworthy buffers of locomotives, cab cars or passenger coaches according to EN 15227, and tank wagons for dangerous goods or buffers which form part of a combined system consisting of a special buffer and a deformation element, interchangeability with freight wagon buffers is not required, and therefore the requirements of 5.3 (Buffer dimensions) do not apply, those of 5.4 (Mechanical characteristics of buffers) and 5.6 (Marking) apply with restrictions.NOTE 2 For tank wagons subjected to dangerous goods regulation see [35].

This document specifies the requirements for the draw gear and screw coupling for the end of rolling stock that is bound to couple with other rolling stock (freight wagons, locomotives, passenger vehicles, etc.).This document covers the functionality, construction, interfaces and testing including pass/fail criteria for draw gear and screw coupling.The document describes three categories of classification of draw gear and screw coupling, (1 MN, 1,2 MN and 1,5 MN).Coupling systems between permanently coupled vehicle units are not in the scope of this document.

This document specifies the minimum requirements for ergonomic and structural integrity of steps and handrails used together to give staff access to freight wagons. It does not cover ladders, top platforms and top gangways.It defines in particular the required spaces necessary for shunter handrails, for shunter’s stand, for steps and handrails.This document also defines their dimensions, positions, limits for durability and functionality.It also defines the general requirements for the access to tail lights for freight wagons.

This document defines the external front and rear visibility conditions for cabs of tram vehicles and the associated assessment method.The requirements of this document apply to vehicles operating on tram networks.This document does not apply to refurbishment of existing vehicles.This document does not apply to driver's auxiliary cabs.
