Draft
This document specifies basic requirements for the braking of trains hauled by locomotives.
This document is applicable for trains hauled by locomotives and vehicles intended for use in general operation or in fixed or predefined formation.
NOTE This ensures technical compatibility of the brake function between vehicles of various origins in a train (see 5.4).
If concerned, the EN-UIC brake architecture described in this document (see 5.4) is also applicable to brakes for multiple unit train and high speed trains and urban rail described in the EN 16185 series and the EN 15734 series and the EN 13452 series respectively.
This document also takes into account electrical and electronic control functions and additional brake systems like dynamic brakes and adhesion independent brakes.
The brake system requirements, which are specific for railbound construction and maintenance machines are set out in EN 14033-1.
