Overview - EN 16507:2014 (CEN)
EN 16507:2014, published by CEN, specifies interface and safety requirements for ground-based diesel refuelling equipment for railway vehicles. The standard covers vehicle fittings and fixed fuelling points intended to refuel locomotives, multiple units and other rolling stock fitted with diesel power units using fuels compliant with Directive 2009/30/EC. It does not apply to mobile or temporary refuelling points.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Vehicle interface: Each vehicle must have at least one circular refuelling opening (maximum height 1 500 mm above rail, minimum diameter 70 mm), sealing cover operable by hand, fuel level indicators on both sides (sight glasses not permitted) and clear marking per EN 15877-2.
- Tank and ventilation: Tanks and pipework must resist chemical attack by fuels in Directive 2009/30/EC, prevent surge/overflow and provide independent ventilation so filling can continue up to 90% tank level without premature shut-off.
- Fixed fuelling equipment:
- Nozzle: Flexible supply hose fitted with a Type II nozzle compliant with EN 13012; spout dimensions specified (170–280 mm length, 30–45 mm outer diameter).
- Breakaway coupling: Supply hose must include a breakaway coupling meeting EN 13617-2 to avoid spillage if movement occurs during refuelling.
- Flow rate: Each supply device shall deliver between 80 and 200 L/min.
- Refuelling apron: Impermeable apron with containment of 110% of potential spillage and drainage via an appropriate oil interceptor. Cleaning instructions and restrictions (e.g., avoid emulsifying chemicals; water <60 °C and <60 bar) are required.
- Information & maintenance: Operating and maintenance instructions are mandatory for vehicles and fixed installations to prevent leaks and ensure safe operation.
- National variants: Annex A records special national conditions (e.g., Great Britain BS 3818 compatibility; France aprons per Arrêté n°1435).
Practical applications and users
EN 16507:2014 is intended for:
- Railway infrastructure owners and depot designers specifying fixed refuelling points
- Rolling stock manufacturers and OEMs designing fuel tank openings, ventilation and refuelling interfaces
- Depot operators, maintenance teams and safety managers implementing refuelling procedures and site layouts
- Regulators and procurement teams ensuring interoperability across European networks and compliance with Directive 2008/57/EC
Practical benefits include harmonized vehicle-to-infrastructure interfaces, reduced fuel-spill risk, safer refuelling operations, and simplified cross-border compatibility.

2009/30/EC, Annex II shall be fitted with at least one nozzle compliant with 4.3.1. It is permitted to also fit additional alternative filling couplings to suit local conditions at the fuelling point where the vehicle is used. Railway vehicles fitted with a diesel engine that does not run on fuel compliant with Directive 2009/30/EC, Annex II shall have a foolproof opening and fuel tank to prevent inadvertent refuelling with the wrong fuel. Designated fuelling points on railway infrastructure that store and dispense fuel that is not compliant with Directive 2009/30/EC, Annex II shall be fitted with a foolproof end coupling compatible with the railway vehicle it is to refuel. Fixed installations for all fuels shall comply with 4.3.2, 4.3.3 and 4.3.4. 4.2 On vehicles There shall be an opening on each side of the vehicle, at a maximum height of 1 500 mm above rail level. The opening shall be circular with a minimum diameter of 70 mm. The opening shall either be directly on top of the fuel tank, or lead directly to the fuel tank by pipework, in all cases the opening shall be higher than the top of the fuel tank. NOTE
Where additional closed systems are used, examples are shown in Annex C, it is possible that the coupling height for the closed system could be lower than the top of the fuel level. There shall be a marking located beside each opening compliant with EN 15877-2:2013, 4.5.31 (Engine fuel filling point). The opening shall have a cover which seals it against fuel spillage. The cover shall be openable by hand without any tools, to allow the unobstructed access by the nozzle. There shall be sufficient
