Introduction
This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for construction and operation of railway
passenger access systems to ensure
 safe access and egress from passenger trains through body side doors and steps,
 a minimum risk of injury to persons as a result of door and step operation,
 that the doors remain closed when the vehicle is in motion and
 safe maintenance of the door systems.

1 Scope
The requirements of this European Standard apply to passenger body side entrance systems of all newly
designed railway vehicles such as tram, metro, suburban, mainline and high-speed trains that carry
passengers. The requirements of this European Standard also apply to existing vehicles undergoing
refurbishment of the door equipment, as far as it is reasonably practicable.
This Standard also specifies the requirements for testing of entrance systems.
This European Standard makes reference to manual and power operated entrance systems. For manual
doors clauses referring to power operation are not applicable.
This European Standard does not apply to entrance systems for equipment access, inspection or
maintenance purposes and for crew only use.
Doors on freight wagons are not subject to this standard.
Doors or hatches specifically provided for escape under emergency conditions are excluded.

Perception of a difference visually between one surface or element of a building/rail vehicle and another by
reference to their light reflectance values (LRV) From BS 8300:2009

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 14752:2011
prEN 14752:2011 (E)
When applying colour to two adjacent surfaces, to provide sufficient contrast, the contrast between the colours
will be determined by the light reflectance value, the hue and by the chromatic value of each. (D)
For the purposes of this Standard “Contrast” shall be assessed by the diffused light reflectance value, but may
be enhanced by variation in hue and chroma. For Testing methods see EN for PRM.
3.22
tactile signs and controls
―Tactile signs and ―tactile controls are signs or controls, including raised pictograms, raised characters
or Braille lettering. For tactile pictograms and characters the depth shall be a minimum of 0,5mm raised above
the surface and shall not be engraved and shall be square edged (i.e. not rounded or sharp).
The character or pictogram spacing should allow for both sides of the embossed letter, number or symbol to
be felt with the fingers in a single pass.
The minimum character or number height shall be 15mm.
National Standard Braille shall be used wherever Braille characters are used. The Braille dot shall be dome
shaped. Grade I Braille shall be used for single words, and a locator shall be incorporated. For further details
see EN for PRM.
3.23
palm operated
palm operated means that the device shall be operable by the palm or any part of the hand in its working
position, not requiring fingers to be unclenched. The design need is that passengers with painful conditions,
which affect their joints such as arthritis, may be unable to (and are likely to experience discomfort or pain if
they do) exert any force with the tip of a single finger. Many will not be able to unclench their fingers to do this.
3.24
first step
first step of a vehicle that a passenger shall use to board or alight a train. This will normally be the step that is
closest to the platform edge. It may be a fixed or a moveable step.
3.25
slip resistant
"Slip resistant" means that any surface finish used should be sufficiently rough or otherwise specially shaped
so that friction between the surface, and a person's shoe or a mobility aid, is maintained at an acceptable level
in both wet and dry conditions. Assessment methodology as defined in En for PRM.

3.26
bridge plate
a bridge plate is a device integrated into the vehicle, fully automatic and activated/controll
