Overview
This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 "Railway applications", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 087-00-03 AA "Bremse" ("Brake") of the Railway Standardization Committee (FSF). This European Standard is applicable to relay valves designed to control the brake cylinder pressure of compressed air brakes fitted to railway vehicles, in association with an air brake distributor valve or other control device, and in response to a change in vehicle load that is either continuously variable or in two stages, which means "empty" - "loaded". This European Standard specifies the requirements for the design, manufacture and testing of relay valves.
