General Information

Abstract

1.1   General
This European Standard specifies the technical requirements to minimise the specific railway hazards of trailers and associated equipment, which can arise during the commissioning, the operation and the maintenance of trailers when carried out in accordance with the specification given by the manufacturer or his authorised representative. This European Standard applies to trailers that are not intended to interact with operating signalling and control systems. Other machines are dealt with in other European Standards; see Annex E.
These trailers are not designed or intended for operating signalling and control systems and are only intended to work and run under special operating conditions specifically designated by the infrastructure manager.
These trailers are not intended to be vehicles as defined in the Interoperability Directive and are not permitted to run on the railway lines open to normal traffic. If this is required, they will need to be authorised or placed into service as set out in the Interoperability Directive 2008/57/EC.
Part 1 of this European Standard deals with the technical railway requirements; Part 2 deals with requirements for the trailer to be declared conformant by the manufacturer, except in the case of trailers classified in Annex 4 of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC which require conformity check in conjunction with a notified body.
Additional requirements can apply for running on infrastructures with narrow gauge or broad gauge lines, lines of tramways, railways utilising other than adhesion between the rail and rail wheels, and underground infrastructures.
This European Standard is also applicable to trailers and associated equipment that in working configuration are partly supported on the ballast or the formation.
Where two or more trailers are used together to transport loads in a fixed formation, e.g. where a metal container is fixed to two small trailers, the whole system is treated as a trailer for the purposes of compliance with the requirements of this European Standard.
This European Standard does not apply to the following:
-   requirements for quality of the work or performance of the trailer;
-   specific requirements established by the railway infrastructure operator for the use of trailers, which will be the subject of negotiation between the manufacturer and the operator;
-   separate machines temporarily mounted on the trailer.
This European Standard does not establish the additional requirements for the following:
-   operation subject to special rules, e.g. potentially explosive atmospheres;
-   hazards due to natural causes, e.g. earthquake, lightning, flooding, etc;
-   working methods;
-   operation in severe working conditions requiring special measures, e.g. work in tunnels or in cuttings, extreme environmental conditions (below – 20 °C or above + 40 °C), corrosive environment, contaminating environments, strong magnetic fields;
-   hazards due to errors in software;
-   hazards occurring when used to handle suspended loads which may swing freely.
The intended use of these trailers may have operational parameters specified by each infrastructure manager; for example the maximum speed allowed for these trailers is likely to be limited by the infrastructure manager
- compliance with the clauses of this standard does not confer permission for trailers to travel at this speed. These trailers will not be allowed on a track open to normal railway traffic.
1.2   Validity of this European Standard
This European Standard applies to all trailers, which are ordered one year after the publication date by CEN of this standard.

Trailers shall be designed to work on working track within the geometric limits, see EN 14033-2:2008+A1:2011, Annex F, and shall be designed to work on operating tracks. Trailers that can only work on operating tracks shall display on the identification plate an indication of that restriction. 5.2 Gauge 5.2.1 Running gauge 5.2.1.1 General Except as shown in 5.2.1.2, trailers in running configuration shall meet the dimensional requirements of EN 15273-2. The critical points near the limits of the permissible kinematic gauge, see EN 14033-1:2011, Annex C, shall be recorded in the technical documentation shown in Clause 7. 5.2.1.2 Special cases Trailers intended to travel on infrastructures with more restrictive gauges shall conform to the specific rules of those infrastructures and the corresponding restrictions shall be indicated on their operating permits. SIST EN 15954-1:2013

Key A = rail level B = exceedance of gauge permitted for road-rail trailers C = gauge according to EN 15273-2:2013 Figure 6 — Limits in lower area 5.2.2 Trailer in running configuration 5.2.2.1 Stowing of moveable trailer parts in running configuration When the trailer is in the running configuration, any movable equipment which has the capacity to go outside the gauge shall be capable of being stowed in a manner which prevents inadvertent or unintended movement out of the gauge. All such moveable parts and assemblies forming part of the trailer that are unpacked in order to allow the trailer to work in rail and non-rail configuration shall, in their stowed state, be secured by devices capable of resisting the foreseeable forces encountered during running, which shall not rely upon a power source to retain the locking function. Moveable parts shall be held by either:  efficient locks: the visible positive locking components in running configuration shall be painted in red; if the locking mechanism is powered, the control of locking should preferably be possible from inside the trailer gauge; or  check valves on hydraulic systems which shall prevent movement and fail safe. It shall be obvious to anyone checking the trailer that these parts of the trailer are locked in their stowed position. 5.2.2.2 Operating controls in running configuration When in running configuration all operating controls not related to running, including locking devices, shall be deactivated automatically. SIST EN 15954-1:2013

5.2.3.2.2 Design of movement limiting devices 5.2.3.2.2.1 General Movement limiting devices shall permit the height and rotation limit to be variable to suit each location. The movement limiting device shall stop the movement when height and lateral limits are reached, or prevent movement commencing in an unsafe direction if the machine is stopped at its limit. All movement limiting devices shall comply with 5.2.3.2.2.2 or 5.2.3.2.2.3 or 5.2.3.2.2.4, as appropriate. 5.2.3.2.2.2 Mechanical limiting devices These devices shall be capable of resisting the foreseeable forces encountered. NOTE This includes resisting static forces (start-up force of the motion) where they are in the form of a lock, and dynamic forces where they are in the form of a stop. 5.2.3.2.2.3 Electric limiting devices The design shall be such that there shall be no predictable credible single point failure that would cause the system to fail unsafe, i.e. allow the corresponding movement to continue. Any fault, including unacceptable differences in signals, shall cause the system to fail to a safe condition. SIST EN 15954-1:2013

This distance shall be taken with the worst case wheel wear and suspension condition. Trailers are permitted to move over live conductor rails providing they meet the requirements of the minimum safety distance given in Table 1. Trailers not meeting these clearances are not permitted to move over live conductor rail and the type approval certificate shall indicate this restriction. 5.2.6 Working limit in the upper area 5.2.6.1 General All metallic parts of the trailer shall be equipotential bonded to rail according to EN 15954-2:2013, 5.16.7. 5.2.6.2 Protection for the operator All work positions at a height greater than that shown in Annex B (line 9 of table) shall be protected such that it is not possible to make contact with live electric traction equipment. This requirement shall be achieved by either: a) The provision of an earthed metallic roof without open holes: where open holes in a metallic roof are necessary they shall be a maximum 25 mm aperture and covered by a conducting structure. It is permissible for non-conducting material to be used providing that the frame provides an earth path in the event of fallen catenary.
or b) The trailer shall be accepted for use with the restriction that it may only be operated under isolated and earthed catenaries (this means the electrical power switched off and the contact cable connected to ground potential). This restriction shall be written in the instruction handbook, see Clause 7, list entry a) 3) i), and a notice provided on the side of the trailer. A warning notice shall be placed on MEWPs which do not have a roof, which states that use under live overhead wires is prohibited; see EN 50122-1. All places on the trailer which allow access to either platforms or working areas without roofs in accordance with a) above shall be marked with a warning pictogram; see EN 14033-2:2008+A1:2011, Figure G.1. 5.2.6.3 Prevention of trailer contact with the
