DIN 27204-10
State of railway vehicles - Running gear - Part 10: Vehicles without bogies
Zustand der Eisenbahnfahrzeuge - Fahrwerk - Teil 10: Fahrzeuge ohne Drehgestelle
Overview
Wear, failures and other damage influence the operational safety of railway vehicles. Depending on the wear characteristics, application parameters and the current state of the railway vehicles and the cost effectiveness, a maintenance system shall be specified by which it is ensured that the necessary technical target state is maintained. This standard DIN 27204-10 "State of railway vehicles - Running gear - Part 10: Vehicles without bogies and equipment") has been prepared by Subcommittee NA 087-00-15-04 UA "Fahrwerk" ("Running gear") of Working Committee NA 087-00-15 AA "Zustand der Eisenbahnfahrzeuge" ("State of railway vehicles") of the Railway Standardization Committee (FSF), in coordination with other working committees of the FSF and the German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies (DKE). The standards of the complete works "State of railway vehicles" represent a uniform and system-compatible normative document which specifies the limit state for the safe operation and processes to maintain the target state of standard gauge railway vehicles. The general field of application of this standard is specified in DIN 27200:2011-11, Clause 1 and 3.1. All documents of the complete works are listed in DIN 27200, Supplement 1. DIN 27204 "State of railway vehicles - Running gear " consists of: - Part 1: no entry - Part 2: no entry - Part 3: Axleboxes and axlebox guide (withdrawn) - 4: Steel springing - Part 5: Rubber suspension systems - Part 6: Pneumatic suspension system - Part 7: Bogie and equipment - Part 8: Tilting technology (withdrawn) - Part 9: Emergency exit windows - Part 10: Vehicles without bogies. This standard does not apply for driven vehicles. The requirements laid down in this standard refer to the running gear with the corresponding components, unless separately specified otherwise in the standard series DIN 27204 as a standard. This standard shall be used by analogy for railway vehicles with deviating types of construction.
