Road vertical signs - Variable message traffic signs
This European Standard provides specifications for two types of variable message signs (VMS); i.e. continuous (see 3.4) and discontinuous (see 3.7).
This European Standard covers mobile, temporary and permanently installed VMS used in circulation areas, on public and private land, including tunnels for the information, guidance, warning and/or direction of traffic. Test modules are used to demonstrate compliance with the requirements.
This European Standard specifies visual and physical characteristics of VMS as well as their durability aspects. It also provides relevant requirements and corresponding test methods, assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP) and marking.
NOTE Provisions for the evaluation of conformity with regards to type testing are further specified in 6.2; provisions with regards to factory production control (FPC) are further specified in 6.3.
This European Standard does not cover
a) sign gantries, cantilevers, posts (supports) and foundations,
b) signal heads,
c) sizes and shapes of VMS messages,
d) control units and monitoring units unless inside the VMS,
e) control of sign luminance.
Vertikale Verkehrszeichen - Wechselverkehrszeichen
Diese Europäische Norm enthält Festlegungen zu zwei Arten von Wechselverkehrszeichen (WVZ); d. h. zu kontinuierlichen (siehe 3.4) und diskontinuierlichen (siehe 3.7) Wechselverkehrszeichen.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt mobile, temporäre und dauerhaft aufgestellte WVZ, die auf Verkehrs-flächen, auf öffentlichem oder privatem Gelände, einschließlich in Tunneln, zur Information, als Leitlinie, Warnhinweis und/oder Richtungsanzeige aufgestellt werden. Prüfmodule werden verwendet, um die Übereinstimmung mit den Anforderungen nachzuweisen.
Diese Europäische Norm legt die visuellen und physikalischen Merkmale von WVZ sowie deren Dauerhaftig-keitsaspekte fest. Sie enthält außerdem die maßgeblichen Anforderungen und die entsprechenden Prüf-verfahren, die Bewertung und Überprüfung der Leistungsbeständigkeit (AVCP) und die Kennzeichnung.
ANMERKUNG Die Bestimmungen zur Bewertung der Konformität im Hinblick auf die Typprüfung werden ausführlicher in 6.2 beschrieben; Bestimmungen im Hinblick auf die werkseigene Produktionskontrolle (WPK) werden ausführlicher in 6.3 beschrieben.
Diese Europäische Norm behandelt keine:
a) Schilderbrücken, Ausleger, Maste (Träger) und Fundamente;
b) Signalgeber;
c) Größen und Formen von WVZ-Zeicheninhalten;
d) Bedienungs- und Überwachungseinheiten, es sei denn, sie befinden sich im WVZ;
e) Steuerung der Leuchtdichte von Verkehrszeichen.
Signaux de signalisation routière verticale - Panneaux à messages variables
La présente Norme européenne spécifie des spécifications pour les deux types de panneaux à messages variables (PMV) existants : les panneaux continus (voir 3.4) et les panneaux discontinus (voir 3.6).
La présente Norme européenne spécifie les caractéristiques visuelles et physiques des PMV ainsi que leurs aspects de durabilité. Elle fournit également les exigences pertinentes et les méthodes d'essai correspondantes, l'évaluation de conformité et le marquage.
La présente Norme européenne couvre les PMV utilisés dans les zones de circulation, sur terrain public ou privé, y compris les tunnels, pour fournir des informations, des indications de direction, des avertissements et/ou des directions. Des modules d'essai sont utilisés pour démontrer la conformité aux exigences.
La présente Norme européenne ne couvre pas :
a) les portiques, potences, poteaux (supports) et fondations de panneaux,
b) les têtes de feux,
c) les tailles et les formes des messages des PMV,
d) les organes de contrôle et de surveillance à l'exception de ceux intégrés au module d'essai,
e) le contrôle de la luminance des panneaux.
Pokončni cestni znaki - Prometni znaki s spremenljivo vsebino
Ta evropski standard določa specifikacije za dve vrsti prometnih znakov s spremenljivo vsebino (VMS), ki se prikazuje neprekinjeno (glej 3.4) in prekinjeno (glej 3.7).
Ta evropski standard zajema mobilne, začasne in stalno nameščene prometne znake s spremenljivo vsebino, ki se uporabljajo na prometnih površinah, na javnih ter zasebnih zemljiščih, vključno s predori, za informiranje, usmerjanje, opozarjanje in/ali upravljanje prometa. Za dokazovanje skladnosti z zahtevami se uporabljajo preskusni moduli.
Ta evropski standard določa vizualne in fizikalne značilnosti prometnih znakov s spremenljivo vsebino ter vidike njihove trajnosti. Poleg tega podaja ustrezne zahteve in preskusne metode, ocenjevanje in preverjanje nespremenljivosti lastnosti (AVCP) ter označevanje.
OPOMBA: Določbe za ocenjevanje skladnosti v zvezi s tipskim preskušanjem so podrobneje določene v točki 6.2; določbe v zvezi s kontrolo tovarniške proizvodnje (FPC) so podrobneje določene v točki 6.3.
Ta evropski standard ne zajema:
a) podstavkov znakov, konzol, stebrov (podpornih) in temeljev,
b) signalnih glav,
c) velikosti in oblik sporočil prometnih znakov s spremenljivo vsebino,
d) enot za kontrolo in nadzor, razen če so v prometnih znakih s spremenljivo vsebino,
e) kontrole svetilnosti znakov.
