DIN EN 15153-2:2013-04 EN 15153-2:2013 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard was produced following a review of EN 15153-2:2007 to incorporate the requirements of rolling stock TSIs. DIN EN 15153-2:2013-04 EN 15153
30、-2:2013 (E) 5 1 Scope This European standard defines warning horn requirements which deliver the required audibility of approaching trains, including high speed and conventional rail and excluding road, metro and self-contained systems. For this purpose, the following requirements are included: func
31、tional and technical requirements of the warning horn as a component, functional and technical requirements of the integration of warning horns into the vehicle, and test requirements. Operational requirements for warning horns have been excluded. NOTE The requirements for the control of warning hor
32、ns can be found in prEN 16186-1. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referen
33、ced document (including any amendments) applies. prEN 16186-1, Railway applications Drivers Cab Part 1: Visibility, layout, access EN 61672-1, Electroacoustics Sound level meters Part 1: Specifications (IEC 61672-1) EN 61672-2, Electroacoustics Sound level meters Part 2: Pattern evaluation tests (IE

38、Technical Specification for Interoperability relating to the rolling stock subsystem of the trans-European high-speed rail system CR RST TSI Technical Specification for Interoperability relating to the rolling stock subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system 5 Requirements 5.1 General
39、Trains shall be fitted with one or more warning horns on the leading vehicle. All locomotives shall be fitted with warning horn(s) for each direction of travel. Consideration shall be given to the location of the warning horns, taking into account the possible exposure of staff to excessive noise. N
40、OTE The aim is to control the risk of accidental hearing damage when a horn is sounded at a time when a person is working close to the horn. In order to minimise environmental impact, warning horns should be orientated along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. It is permissible for trains to be fi
41、tted with additional audible warning devices. 5.2 Acoustic requirements 5.2.1 Frequency The notes of the audible warning horns are intended to be recognisable as being from a train and not be similar to warning devices used in road transport, factories or other common warning devices. The warning ho
42、rn frequencies shall be selected from the following options: a) Two separately sounded warning horns. The fundamental frequencies of the warning horn notes shall be: high note: 370 Hz 20 Hz DIN EN 15153-2:2013-04 EN 15153-2:2013 (E) 7 low note: 311 Hz 20 Hz b) Two separately sounded warning horns. T
43、he fundamental frequencies of the warning horn notes shall be: high note: 660 Hz 30 Hz low note: 370 Hz 20 Hz It is permissible for these horns to be sounded simultaneously. c) Two warning horns sounded simultaneously. The fundamental frequencies of the notes shall be: high note: 470 Hz 25 Hz low no
44、te: 370 Hz 20 Hz d) Three warning horns sounded simultaneously. The fundamental frequencies of the notes shall be: high note: 622 Hz 30 Hz middle note: 470 Hz 25 Hz low note: 370 Hz 20 Hz Where a second sound is required for cases c) and d), this shall be a separately sounded note of 370 Hz 20 Hz. I
45、n the case of trains intended for national use only, the deviation in Annex D is permissible. 5.2.2 Sound pressure level The C-weighted sound pressure level LpCeq,Tproduced by each horn sounded separately (or in a group if designed to sound simultaneously) shall be between 101 dB and 109 dB when mea
46、sured and verified in accordance with the requirements defined in Clause 6. In the case of trains intended for national use only, the requirements of Annex D may apply. 5.3 Operation The controls for warning horns shall be in accordance with prEN 16186-1. 5.4 Energy supply Warning horns shall be ope
47、rated using an energy source that is readily available on the vehicle carrying the horn. The horn shall meet the technical requirements of this European Standard over the full range of energy levels encountered on the vehicle in its normal operational condition. Where agreed between contractors, the
48、 horn shall be operational over an extended range of energy levels. 5.5 Impact protection Warning horns and their control systems should be protected, so far as it is practicable, from impact and subsequent blockage by airborne objects such as debris, dust, snow, hail and birds. Where such protectio
49、n features are used, the acoustic requirements shall apply with any protection features in place. DIN EN 15153-2:2013-04 EN 15153-2:2013 (E) 8 6 Test requirements 6.1 Environmental test conditions Where tests on the train are conducted, acoustic measurements of warning horns shall be carried out with the horns mounted to rail vehicles in an open, flat site, as shown in Figure 1.
