Railway applications - Track - Switches and crossings - Part 4: Actuation, locking and detection

This European Standard determines the interface between moveable parts and the actuation, locking and detection equipment, and defines the basic criteria of switches and crossing with moveable parts in respect of the interface.
It concerns:
·   rules parameters and tolerances for alternative positions of the moveable parts;
·   criteria and limits for the forces which move and restrain the moveable parts.

Bahnanwendungen - Oberbau - Weichen und Kreuzungen - Teil 4: Umstellung, Verriegelung und Lageprüfung

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Schnittstelle zwischen den beweglichen Bauteilen und den Umstellungs-, Verriegelungs- und Lageprüfungselementen fest und definiert die grundlegenden Kriterien der Weichen und Kreuzungen mit beweglichen Bauteilen bezüglich dieser Schnittstelle.
Es betrifft:
-   Grundsätze, Parameter und Toleranzen für die wechselnden Stellungen der beweglichen Bauteile;
Kriterien und Begrenzungen der Kräfte, welche die beweglichen Bauteile bewegen und festhalten.

Applications ferroviaires - Voie - Appareils de voie - Partie 4: Manoeuvre, blocage et contrôle

La présente Norme européenne détermine l'interface entre les ensembles mobiles et l'équipement de
manoeuvre, de blocage et de contrôle. Elle définit les critères de bases des aiguillages et des coeurs à pointe
mobile dans le respect de cette interface.
Cela concerne :
.les paramètres réglementaires et les tolérances, en fonction du choix des parties mobiles ;
.les caractéristiques des forces appliquées aux parties mobiles.
