Railway applications - Fire protection on railway vehicles - Part 4: Fire safety requirements for rolling stock design

This document specifies fire safety requirements for railway vehicle design to cover the objectives specified in EN 45545-1:2013.
The measures and requirements specified in this document aim to protect passengers and staff in railway vehicles in the event of a fire on board by minimizing the risk of a fire starting, delaying the fire development and controlling the spread of fire products through the railway vehicle, thus aiding evacuation.
It is not within the scope of this document to describe measures which ensure the preservation of the railway vehicles in the event of a fire.

Bahnanwendungen - Brandschutz in Schienenfahrzeugen - Teil 4: Brandschutzanforderungen an die konstruktive Gestaltung von Schienenfahrzeugen

Dieses Dokument legt Brandschutzanforderungen für die Konstruktion von Schienenfahrzeugen fest, um die Ziele zu erfüllen, die in EN 45545 1:2013 festgelegt sind.
Die Maßnahmen und Anforderungen, die in diesem Dokument festgelegt sind, haben zum Ziel, Fahrgäste und Personal im Falle eines Brandes an Bord zu schützen, indem das Risiko minimiert wird, dass ein Brand entsteht, indem die Brandentwicklung verlangsamt wird und indem die Ausbreitung der Verbrennungsprodukte innerhalb des Schienenfahrzeugs so gesteuert wird, dass damit die Evakuierung unterstützt wird.
Es liegt nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments, Maßnahmen zu beschreiben, den Schutz der Schienenfahrzeuge im Brandfall sicherzustellen.

Applications ferroviaires - Protection contre les incendies dans les véhicules ferroviaires - Partie 4 : Exigences de sécurité incendie pour la conception des véhicules ferroviaires

Le présent document spécifie les exigences de sécurité incendie pour la conception des véhicules ferroviaires pour atteindre les objectifs spécifiés dans l'EN 45545-1:2013.
L'objectif des mesures et des exigences spécifiées dans le présent document est la protection des voyageurs et du personnel de bord dans les véhicules ferroviaires en cas d'incendie à bord en réduisant le risque de départ d'un feu, en retardant son développement et en contrôlant la propagation des produits du feu à l'intérieur du véhicule, facilitant ainsi l'évacuation.
Le présent document n'a pas vocation à décrire les mesures de protection des véhicules ferroviaires en cas d'incendie.

Railway applications - Fire protection on railway vehicles - Assessment of fire containment and control systems for railway vehicles
SIST-TP CEN/TR 17532:2020

This document specifies the assessment of Fire Containment and Control Systems (FCCS) and associated fire detection systems for railway vehicles as an alternative to the fire barriers specified in EN 45545-3.
This document describes:
- assessment of installation and capability of fire detection system;
- assessment of interaction between fire detection system and FCCS;
- application and limitations of assessment process (mock-up or real scale test).
This document considers any additional assessment requirements when vehicle designs which have already been assessed as acceptable to this document are modified, or when new design variants, which have an impact on FCCS, are made which are based on an existing design.
This document is applicable to any railway vehicle, where fire detection systems and/or Fire Control and Containment Systems are used.
This document defines performance requirements and verification and validation requirements for systems whose objective is to detect and control or contain the effect of fire in order to create a protected area within the railway vehicle until passengers and staff can be evacuated from the railway vehicle. It is additionally assumed that the new railway vehicles comply with EN 45545-2 (material properties) and EN 45545-4 (design rules) in order to achieve the safety requirements defined in the EN 45545 series.

Railway applications - Fire protection on railway vehicles - Part 1: General
SIST EN 45545-1:2013

The measures and requirements specified in EN 45545 are intended to protect passengers and staff in railway vehicles in the event of a fire on board.
EN 45545 specifies:
-   fire protection measures for  railway vehicles;
-   verification methods for these measures.
The protection of passengers and staff is essentially based on measures to:
-   prevent fires occurring due to technical faults and due to equipment design or vehicle layout (Part 1, Part 4, Part 5 and Part 7);
-   minimise the possibility of ignition of materials installed on railway vehicles due to accidents or vandalism (Part 1 and Part 2);
-   detect a fire should it occur (Part 6);
-   limit the spread of fire by specification of materials according to their operational categories (Part 2) and by measures for containment (Part 3);
-   minimise the effects of fire in terms of heat, smoke and toxic gases on passengers or staff through the specification of materials installed on railway vehicles (Part 2);
-   control and manage a fire, for example by means of fire detection, suppression and/or emergency shut down (Part 6).
The ultimate objective in the event of a fire on board is to allow passengers and staff to evacuate the railway vehicle and reach a place of safety.
The present European Standard describes the measures to be taken in the design of the vehicles in the context of the infrastructure on which they operate.
It is not within the scope of EN 45545 to describe measures that ensure the preservation of the vehicles in the event of a fire beyond what is required to fulfil the objective to protect passengers and staff.
This European Standard is valid for railway vehicles as defined in Clause 3.
Freight transportation vehicles are not covered by EN 45545.
This part of EN 45545 covers:
-   principal definitions;
-   operation categories;
-   design categories;
-   fire safety objectives;
-   general requirements for fire protection measures and their evaluation of conformity.
