CLC/SC 9XB - Electromechanical material on board rolling stock

This document defines the measurement and evaluation methods of rolling stock interference current emissions to demonstrate compatibility with track circuits. This includes rolling stock with or without traction equipment. The established limits for compatibility are defined in ERA/ERTMS/033281, PD CLC/TS 50238-2 or NNTRs as current flowing between the vehicle and the electric traction power supply system that can disturb the track circuit receiver, as part of the track circuit system. Additionally, the referred documents can define a minimum rolling stock impedance in order to guarantee compatibility between the electric traction power supply system and track circuits. This document is relevant to the interference current limits defined in the "frequency management" for track circuits as defined in ERA/ERTMS/033281. It is also applicable to the demonstration of compatibility with all other types of track circuits which have established compatibility according to EN 50617-1. Finally, the methodology defined in this document can also be applied to other track circuit types, including those for which the only requirements are defined in NNTRs. NOTE 1 Interface parameters between rolling stock and track circuits other than interference currents and impedance are out of the scope of this document. NOTE 2 For track circuits prone to wrong side failures additional precautions might be needed to mitigate safety risks. The necessary precautions and safety considerations are outside the scope of this document, but can be found in NNTRs.

The shore supply system is used while the rolling stock is standing still within depots and sidings location for providing power to the AC auxiliary loads (which can include battery charging) when the primary power supply (contact line) is not available or used. This document: - specifies requirements to the shore supply and to the rolling stock for safe operation on shore supply operation; - specifies the requirements to ensure compatibility of class C0 and C1 train types as given in CLC/TS 50534:2010 systems and three-phase shore power supply systems; - provides a complete system design for 63/125 A shore supplies including the interfaces (power and control loop) between shore supply and rolling stock; - specifies the requirements with regards to interoperability with AC and DC fed traction systems in order to prevent undesired stray currents and adverse interaction with signalling systems when operating on shore supply; - defines the electrical characteristics of the 63/125 A shore power supply; - defines the 63/125 A connectors and its intermateability to provide interoperability for rolling stock that is to run across borders; - defines the 600 A connector and its intermateability; - can be used for other type of rail vehicles and purposes, if agreed by the manufacturer and customer - does not apply to shore supplies to move the rolling stock; - does not describe the 600 A shore supply system. NOTE 1 The 600 A connector is the existing UK standard three-phase shore supply connector which has a long service history. NOTE 2 The connectors are dimensioned using standard rolling stock cables as set out in EN 50264-3-1:2008. NOTE 3 Examples of other usage and rail vehicles are: e.g. light rail vehicles, class A train types, traction battery charging etcetera.

This document applies in conjunction with the relevant product and installation standards and describes minimum requirements.

Add the following note after the paragraph in 1.6: 'NOTE This document was derived from the signalling standard EN 50128 which in many cases was also applied in Rolling Stock applications. Subclause 1.6 ensures continuity in the application of the standards, i.e., software that was developed in accordance with EN 50128 can still be re-used for new projects.'

The purpose of this document is to support rolling stock procurement, especially life cycle cost (LCC) assessment. This document is applicable to the specification and verification of energy consumption of railway rolling stock. It establishes a criterion for the energy consumption of rolling stock to calculate the total net energy consumed, either at current collector or from the fuel tank, over a predefined service profile, to ensure that the results are directly comparable or representative of the real operation of the train. For this purpose, this document considers the energy consumed and regenerated by the rolling stock. The determination methods covered are the simulation and the measurement. This document provides the framework that gives guidance on the generation of comparable energy performance values for trains and locomotives on a common basis and thereby supports benchmarking and improvement of the energy efficiency of rail vehicles. This document does not cover the comparison of energy consumption with other modes of transportation, or even for comparison between diesel and electric traction, covering only the energy consumption of the railway rolling stock itself.

This European standard defines, for the purpose of ensuring compatibility between rolling stock and axle counter systems, the measurement and evaluation methods of rolling stock emissions to demonstrate compatibility. The established limits for compatibility are defined as magnetic field strength that can disturb the axle counter detectors, as part of the axle counter system. In the relevant frequency range of the axle counter detectors the magnetic field is dominant and only this type of field is considered. Experience has shown that the effects of electric fields are insignificant and therefore not considered. For axle counters systems whose limits are not defined in terms of magnetic fields at a detector level, National Rules apply where they exist. NOTE The influence from metal parts or inductively coupled resonant circuits on the vehicle, eddy current brakes or magnetic brakes is out of the scope of this EN. Compatibility is established through individual testing according to the EN 50238 series or National Notified Technical Rules.

Relevant train configuration and concerned energy supply subsystems in scope of this Technical Specification are defined in Clause 4.

This Technical Specification covers requirements for centrifugal and peripheral electric pumps which generate the circulation of cooling liquid in converters of rail vehicles and their associated cooling system. The pumps covered in this Technical Specification are rotodynamic pumps driven by canned motors or magnetically coupled motors. CLC/TS 50537-3 gives consideration to both technical and normative requirements of the railway environment and restricts the variety provided by industry-wide standards for pumps (for example EN 50216-7, EN 733 and EN ISO 9906).

The device is intended to detect • gas release from the unit to be protected, • cooling liquid surge from the protected unit to the conservator, • complete loss of the cooling liquid in the conservator. This Technical Specification gives consideration to both technical and normative requirements of the railway environment and restricts the variety in particular provided by the industry-wide standard EN 50216-2. It determines requirements and tests enabling the interchangeability of Buchholz relays by defining the following types of interfaces: • mechanical interface, e.g. flanges for pipe connection, dimensions; • electrical interface, e.g. supply voltage for making and breaking capability; • functional interface, e.g. protective operational behaviour. It is not applicable to flameproof relays. Different liquids may be used, which are typically used for both cooling and insulating. Furthermore, operating conditions are described.

It determines requirements and tests enabling the interchangeability especially regarding electrical and mechanical interfaces. Furthermore, service conditions are described. The cable plug as the counterpart of the HV bushing’s plug-in end is not covered by this Technical Specification.

This Technical Report will define - requirements for the methods to be used for functional standardisation, in the standards to be prepared for data exchange involving railway vehicles, in two contexts 1) inter-consists communication, within a train formation, 2) communication with ground based installations. - the Reference Architecture defining the essential functional interfaces, - the concept of a central Data Dictionary/repository to be applied to freight and passenger traffic functions. In this context, data are to be limited to basic information elements, which are necessary to define standard messages required for interoperability, and displayed on the interfaces of the communicating entities. Entering Data Dictionary will provide full definition of a data element, along with its essential attributes at conceptual level. The purpose, in the perspective of the standards to be prepared, is to document the data element pertinent to the functional area and essential for interoperability, to allow the reuse of data element among functional area systems, and facilitate data interchange among the systems. NOTE Data Dictionary shall be designed to provide a structural framework that enables continued growth and enhancement of the scope of defined data. Rationale for this requirement is that it is difficult, when defining the scope of a proposed system to fully define the application domain and all included interoperability related data. In addition over time, functional requirements will expand.
