Overview

EN 15723:2010/prA1 is a draft amendment to EN 15723:2010 prepared by CEN/TC 256 and submitted for CEN enquiry. It covers requirements for closing and locking devices used on payload-protecting devices against environmental influences in railway applications. The amendment revises Annex ZA to clarify the relationship between this European Standard and the Essential Requirements of Directive (EU) 2016/797, and its role in demonstrating conformity with the TSI Rolling Stock - Freight Wagons.

Key features of the document include:

  • Focus on durability, operation, indication, maintenance and recycling of closing and locking devices
  • Scope limited to devices protecting payloads (doors, sliding walls, sliding roofs, flaps, hoods and similar movable protecting units)
  • Alignment with interoperability requirements under the TSI Rolling Stock - Freight Wagons when cited in the Official Journal

Key Topics

  • Durability: Expectations for long-term mechanical integrity and resistance of closing/locking components when exposed to environmental influences.
  • Operation: Requirements to ensure reliable actuation, user interaction and secure locking/unlocking under normal and degraded conditions.
  • Indication: Provisions for marking and status indication so that operational state and safety-relevant information are clear to operators and maintenance staff.
  • Maintenance: Guidance on inspection, servicing intervals and maintainability to preserve function and safety throughout service life.
  • Recycling: Considerations for end-of-life handling, material selection and disposal to support environmental and circular-economy goals.
  • Annex ZA revision: Clarifies how compliance with the standard supports conformity to Directive (EU) 2016/797 and references to TSI clauses relevant to freight wagons.

Applications

This standard is relevant to:

  • Manufacturers of closing and locking devices for railway payload-protecting equipment
  • Designers and integrators of freight wagon doors, sliding walls, roofs and hoods
  • Maintenance organizations responsible for upkeep and inspection regimes
  • Notified bodies and conformity assessors reviewing interoperability and TSI compliance

Practical benefits:

  • Improves safety and reliability of payload protection systems
  • Supports consistent marking, operation and maintenance practices across EU members
  • Provides a voluntary harmonized means to demonstrate conformity with the rail interoperability framework

Related Standards

  • EN 15723:2010 (base standard) - amended by prA1
  • Relevant TSI documents for Rolling Stock - Freight Wagons (referenced in Annex ZA)
  • Other CEN/CENELEC standards referenced for interoperability and safety compliance

For implementers and procurers, EN 15723:2010/prA1 provides a focused, compliance-oriented framework to ensure closing and locking devices meet durability, operational, maintainability and environmental objectives without prescribing specific proprietary solutions.
