Provides test methods and acceptance criteria for a brake system for use in self propelling thermal and electric trains, in the following document called EMU/DMU, operating on routes of the European conventional rail system network.

This European Standard specifies test methods and acceptance criteria for a brake system for use in self propelling thermal and electric trains, in the following document called EMU/DMU, operating on routes of the European conventional rail system network. This European Standard is applicable to: all new vehicles designs of self-propelling thermal and electric trains; all major overhauls of the EMU/DMU if they involve redesigning or extensive alteration to the brake system of the vehicle concerned. This European Standard does not cover: locomotive hauled trains which are specified by EN14198 ; mass transit rolling stock which is specified by EN13452 (all parts); high speed trains being operated at speeds greater than 200km/h which are specified by EN15734‑1 and tests in EN15734‑2 . The functional testing requirements set out in this European Standard assume the vehicles are fitted with brake system architecture as defined in EN16185‑1 . The braking performance obtained by applying the tests defined in this European Standard can be used to assess compliance with the required braking performance as defined in EN16185‑1 .
