(Amendment)Railway applications - Hydrogen and fuel cell systems for rolling stock - Part 2: Hydrogen fuel system
Railway applications - Hydrogen and fuel cell systems for rolling stock - Part 2: Hydrogen fuel system
This document amends EN IEC 63341-2 which applies to onboard hydrogen fuel systems used to supply the fuel cells for the traction power and the auxiliaries supply of rolling stock vehicles (such as hybrid vehicles as defined in EN IEC 62864-1). NOTE 1 This document may also be used as informative recommendations for applications with hydrogen internal combustion engines. EN IEC 63341-2 applies to hydrogen storage in gaseous form. Other means of storage (such as liquid, liquid cryo-compressed, metal hydrides) are not covered in this document. EN IEC 63341-2 applies to any rolling stock type (e.g. light rail vehicles, tramways, streetcars, metros, commuter trains, regional trains, high speed trains, locomotives). EN IEC 63341-2 addresses the mechanical, fluidic and electrical interfaces between the on-board hydrogen fuel system and fuelling station. The fuelling station, fuelling protocol and communication for the fuelling protocol are not in the scope of this document. EN IEC 63341-2 defines: – the scope of supply of hydrogen fuel system (HFS) and the description of the interfaces with sub-systems internal and external to the rolling stock such as fuel cell power system, fuelling station systems; – the environmental constraints; – the design requirements to support HFS compliance with railway applications; – the safety and reliability requirements to design and install the HFS for railway applications; – the marking and labelling requirements; – the requirements related to storage, transportation, installation and maintenance; – the validation (type, routine and investigation tests) requirements

This draft amendment prAA, if approved, will modify the European Standard FprEN IEC 63341-2:2025; it is submitted to CENELEC
members for enquiry.
Deadline for CENELEC: 2026-01-30.
It has been drawn up by CLC/TC 9X.
If this draft becomes an amendment, CENELEC members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which
stipulate the conditions for giving this amendment the status of a national standard without any alteration.
This draft amendment was established by CENELEC in three official versions (English, French, German).
A version in any other language made by translation under the responsibility of a CENELEC member into its own language and notified to
the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.
CENELEC members are the national electrotechnical committees of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the
Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
Türkiye and the United Kingdom.
Recipients of this draft are invited to submit, with their comments, notification of any relevant patent rights of which they are aware and to
provide supporting documentation.
