Railway applications - Braking - Brake performance

This document defines a harmonized way to assess the braking performance by test of locomotives, passenger coaches, freight wagons, railbound construction and maintenance machines, and self-propelled passenger trains (multiple units) including high speed trains. The document sets out the standardized method for undertaking brake performance tests and the correction factors to be applied to the data obtained for all types of rolling stock. This document also defines the methods to assess the brake performance in terms of stopping distance, and from this the process to determine vehicle(s) deceleration and braked weight. It then deals with conversion of the braked weight to the braked weight percentage of a vehicle or train for operating purposes. It also sets out additional factors when determining the braked weight percentage of a train calculated from specified braked weight, depending on the formation of the train. In Annex D there is a method for determining brake performance of freight wagons fitted with P10 cast iron or LL-blocks using limited testing (force measurement).

Founding - Radiographic testing - Part 2: Techniques with digital detectors

This document gives specific procedures for industrial X-ray and gamma radiography for discontinuity detection purposes, using NDT (non-destructive testing) digital X-ray image detectors. This part of the EN 12681 series specifies the requirements for digital radiographic testing by either computed radiography (CR) or radiography with digital detector arrays (DDA) of castings. Digital detectors provide a digital grey value image which can be viewed and evaluated using a computer. NOTE This part of the EN 12681 series complies with EN 14784-2 for CR. Some clauses and annexes are taken from EN ISO 17636 2. This part of the EN 12681 series specifies the recommended procedure for detector selection and radiographic practice. Selection of computer, software, monitor, printer and viewing conditions are important but are not the main focus of this document. The procedure specified in this document provides the minimum requirements for radiographic practice which permit exposure and acquisition of digital images with equivalent sensitivity for detection of imperfections as film radiography, as specified in EN 12681 1. This document does not consider radiographic or radioscopic fitness for purpose testing as applied for specific castings based on manufacturer’s internal requirements and procedures. The requirements on image quality in testing class A and B testing of Annex A consider the good workmanship quality for general casting applications as also required in EN 12681 1 for film radiography. The testing classes AA and BA reflect the quality requirements of current automated and semi-automated radiographic testing systems with DDAs and computer- or operator-based image evaluation, and mini- or micro-focus tubes (spot size ≤ 1 mm) with reduced requirements to the unsharpness, but unchanged requirements to contrast sensitivity as also required in EN 12681 1 for film radiography. The specified procedures are applicable to castings produced by any casting process, especially for steels, cast irons, aluminium, cobalt, copper, magnesium, nickel, titanium, zinc and any alloys of them. This document does not apply to: - the testing of welded joints (see EN ISO 17636 2); - film radiography (see EN 12681 1); - real time testing with radioscopy (see EN 13068 1; radioscopy with image intensifiers).

Founding - Radiographic testing - Part 1: Film techniques

This document gives specific procedures for industrial X-ray and gamma radiography for discontinuity detection purposes, using NDT (non-destructive testing) film techniques. This part of the EN 12681 series specifies the requirements for film radiographic testing of castings. Films after exposure and processing become radiographs with different area of optical density. Radiographs are viewed and evaluated using industrial radiographic illuminators. This part of the EN 12681 series specifies the recommended procedure for the choice of operating conditions and radiographic practice. These procedures are applicable to castings produced by any casting process, especially for steel, cast iron, aluminium, cobalt, copper, magnesium, nickel, titanium, zinc and any alloys of them. NOTE This document considers EN ISO 5579. This document does not apply to: - radiographic testing of castings for aerospace applications (see EN 2002-21); - radiographic testing of welded joints (see EN ISO 17636-1); - radiography with digital detectors (see EN 12681-2); - radioscopic testing (see the EN 13068 series).

Earth-moving machinery - Functional safety - Part 2: Design and evaluation of hardware and architecture requirements for safety-related parts of the control system (ISO/DIS 19014-2:2025)

This document specifies general principles for the development and evaluation of the machine performance level achieved (MPLa) of safety-control systems (SCS) using components powered by all energy sources (e.g. electronic, electrical, hydraulic, mechanical) used in earth-moving machinery and its equipment, as defined in ISO 6165. The principles of this document apply to machine control systems (MCS) that control machine motion or mitigate a hazard; such systems are assessed for machine performance level required (MPLr) per ISO 19014-1 or ISO/TS 19014-5. Excluded from the scope of this document are the following systems: — awareness systems that do not impact machine motion (e.g. cameras and radar detectors); — fire suppression systems, unless the activation of the system interferes with, or activates, another SCS. Other systems or components whereby the operator would be aware of failure (e.g. windscreen wipers, head lights, etc.), or are primarily used to protect property, are excluded from this document. Audible warnings are excluded from the requirements of diagnostic coverage. In addition, this document addresses the significant hazards as defined in ISO 12100 mitigated by the hardware components within the SCS. This document is not applicable to EMM manufactured before the date of its publication.

Earth-moving machinery - Functional safety - Part 1: Methodology to determine safety-related parts of the control system and performance requirements (ISO/DIS 19014-1:2025)

This document provides a methodology for the determination of performance levels required for earth moving machinery (EMM) as defined in ISO 6165. A Machine Control System Safety Analysis (MCSSA) determines the amount of risk reduction of hazards associated with control systems, required for Safety Control Systems (SCS). This reduction is quantified by the Machine Performance Level (MPL), the hazards are identified using the risk assessment principles as defined in ISO 12100 or by other means. NOTE 1 Step 2 as shown in Annex A demonstrates the relationship between ISO 12100 and ISO 19014 as a complementary protective measure. NOTE 2 ISO 19014 can also be used to assess the functional safety requirements of other off-road mobile machinery. For those controls determined to be safety-related, the characteristics for architecture, hardware, software environmental requirements and performance are covered by other parts in ISO 19014. ISO 19014 covers the hazards caused by the failure of a safety control system and excludes hazards arising from the equipment itself (for example, electric shock, fire, etc.). Other controls that are not safety control systems (SCS), that do not mitigate a hazard or perform a control function and where the operator would be aware of a failure, are excluded from this standard (e.g. windscreen wipers, head lights, cab light, etc.). NOTE 3 A list of safety control systems is included in Annex D. NOTE 4 Audible warnings are excluded from the requirements of diagnostic coverage.

The significant hazards being addressed are the incorrect machine control system output responses from machine control system inputs. Cyber security is out of the scope of this document. NOTE For guidance on cybersecurity, see an appropriate security standard. This document is not applicable to EMM manufactured before the date of its publication.
