Railway applications - Driver's cab - Part 1: Anthropometric data and visibility

"This part of EN 16186 applies to driver’s cabs of Electrical Multiple Unit (EMU), Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU), railcars, locomotives and driving trailers.
NOTE 1   This standard applies to rolling stock in the scope of the Directive 2008/57/EC."
This part of EN 16186 applies to driver's desks installed on the left, on the right, or in a central position in the driver’s cab.
For OTMs, see EN 14033 1 "deleted text" and EN 15746 1 "deleted text".
This part of EN 16186 defines:
-   anthropometric data;
-   visibility conditions from the driver's cab, including forward visibility and the reference positions of line-side signals to be considered;
-   assessment methods.
"NOTE 2   Due to railway systems constraints the level of visibility provided to the persons outside the defined anthropometric range may vary. It is up to the operator’s safety management system to address the potential restriction of front visibility, if the driver uses extreme seat positions combined with extreme body heights."
"The actual seating and positioning habits of drivers regarding visibility, whether drivers are in or outside the range of anthropometric data of this standard is outside the scope of this document."
"This standard is not intended to be applicable for tramways, metros and light rail vehicles."

Dieser Teil der EN 16186 gilt für Führerräume von interoperablen Schienenfahrzeugen.
Dieser Teil der EN 16186 gilt für Führertische, die links, rechts, oder mittig im Führerraum eingebaut sind.
Für OTMs siehe EN 14033-1 [2] und EN 15746-1 [3].
Dieser Teil der EN 16186 definiert:
-   anthropometrische Daten;
-   Sichtbedingungen aus dem Führerraum einschließlich der Sicht nach vorne und der Referenzpositionen der zu berücksichtigenden Streckensignale;
-   Bewertungsverfahren.
ANMERKUNG      Aufgrund von technischen Nebenbedingungen bei verschiedenen Eisenbahnsystemen können die Sichtverhältnisse, die Personen mit Körpermaßen außerhalb des definierten anthropometrischen Bereichs geboten wer¬den, variieren. Üblicherweise regeln die Betreiber die mögliche Einschränkung der Sicht nach vorne, wenn der Triebfahr¬zeugführer im Zusammenhang mit einer extremen Körpergröße extreme Positionen des Führersitzes verwendet.
Die berufliche Eignung von Triebfahrzeugführern bezüglich der Sichtbedingungen, unabhängig davon, ob ihre Körpermaße sich innerhalb oder außerhalb des in dieser Norm verwendeten anthropometrischen Bereichs befinden, liegt nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments.

Applications ferroviaires - Cabines de conduite - Partie 1: Données anthropométriques et visibilité

La présente partie de la Norme européenne EN 16186 s'applique aux cabines de conduite du matériel roulant interopérable.
La présente partie de de la Norme européenne EN 16186 s’applique aux pupitres du conducteur, qu’ils soient installés à gauche, à droite ou à une position centrale à l'intérieur de la cabine de conduite.
En ce qui concerne le matériel de maintenance et de construction de la voie (OTM), voir l’EN 14033-1 [2] et l’EN 15746-1 [3].
La présente partie de la Norme européenne EN 16186 définit :
-   les données anthropométriques ;
-   les conditions de visibilité depuis la cabine de conduite, comprenant les conditions de visibilité avant et les positions des systèmes de signalisation latérale devant être considérés ;
-   les méthodes d'évaluation.
NOTE   En raison des contraintes des systèmes ferroviaires, le niveau de visibilité fourni aux personnes ne s’inscrivant pas à l’intérieur de la plage anthropométrique définie, peut varier. Habituellement les opérateurs gèrent l’éventuelle restriction de la visibilité avant, si un conducteur de taille extrême utilise les positions extrêmes du siège.
L'aptitude professionnelle des conducteurs en ce qui concerne la visibilité, savoir si les conducteurs sont à l’intérieur ou en dehors de la plage de données anthropométriques de cette norme, est en dehors du domaine d’application de ce document.

Železniške naprave - Voznikova kabina - 1. del: Antropometrični podatki in vidljivost

»Ta del standarda EN 16186 se uporablja za voznikove kabine električnih vlečnih vozil (EMU), dizelska vlečna vozila (DMU), vagone, lokomotive in vlečne prikolice.
OPOMBA 1:   Ta standard se uporablja za tirna vozila, ki spadajo na področje direktive 2008/57/ES.
Ta del standarda EN 16186 se uporablja za voznikove mize, ki so nameščene na levi ali desni strani ali sredi voznikove kabine.

The horizontal distance from the driver's eye to the windscreen in seated position shall be a minimum of 500 mm and an absolute maximum of 1 715 mm. It is recommended to have a maximum of 1 500 mm. SIST EN 16186-1:2015+A1:2019



EN 16186-1:2014+A1:2018 (E) 8 The sightlines as defined in 5.2.1 shall not be infringed by any permanent equipment of the rolling stock, whether inside or outside the cab. 5.2 Forward visibility requirements 5.2.1 General This applies for all units equipped with a cab. For rolling stock which are not covered by the Directive 2008/57/EC, other requirements may apply. NOTE In this case, for Ireland and UK, the Annex C applies. !The forward visibility for the driver from the normal seated position is covered by the following assessment based on standard reference points and on a vehicle in design mass under normal payload conditions (in accordance with EN 15663) on a straight and level track." The position of the eye points shall be defined by using Figure B.1 for fixed foot rest only or Figure B.2 for fixed seat only or Figure B.3 for seat and foot rest both vertically adjustable. In case of Figure B.3, the eye points of the small driver are covered by the method defined for the tall driver as defined below: The demonstration of forward visibility shall be done based on a drawing with theoretical lines of sight: — to the high reference points, from the mid-point (Point A) between the tall driver's eyes; — to the low reference points, from a check-point (Point B) vertically below this mid-point at a vertical distance that shall be at least 115 mm and should be 190 mm. As an exception for high-speed trains with a front windscreen inclined less than 35° from the horizontal, the vertical distance for Point B may be reduced to 100 mm. It is recommended that the minimum longitudinal distance at which low reference points are visible should be reduced. In the case of using Figure B.1 or Figure B.2, the demonstration of forward visibility shall be performed from a point mid-way between the driver's eyes for both the small and the tall drivers' positions. The height of the above mid-point between the eyes applied in the demonstration of vertical forward visibility shall apply also for lateral forward visibility. With this assessment all effects like track curvature, track geometry and vehicle conditions are completely covered, i.e. no additional requirements resulting from those effects shall apply. 5.2.2 Particular cases For vehicles with centre gangway the lateral forward visibility may be demonstrated only on one side. For vehicles with central cab the lateral forward visibility for the low reference point may be demonstrated only for the side of the driver's seat, if the movement of the driver in the cab for seeing the low reference point on the other side is not hindered while driving. 5.3 Windscreen requirements 5.3.1 General Windscreen characteristics are defined by EN 15152. The projection area of the windscreen (vision area A plus vision area B) on a vertical plane shall have a minimum height of 600 mm and a minimum width of 800 mm. For split windscreen (associated with lateral desk) the width may be reduced to 750 mm. SIST EN 16186-1:2015+A1:2019



EN 16186-1:2014+A1:2018 (E) 9 For centre gangway cabs, the minimum width of the projection area shall be 580 mm. The minimum height of the upper limit of the transparent windscreen shall be 1 810 mm above cab floor. No permanent equipment shall infringe this limit. For train sets (defined in TSI) with a windscreen inclined by less than 35° from the horizontal or train sets with maximum design speed greater than 190 km/h, a lower value of the upper limit of the transparent windscreen is permitted. 5.3.2 Windscreen cleaning devices The location and function of windscreen cleaning and clearance devices shall ensure the external view according to this European Standard in most weather and operating conditions. This is deemed to be fulfilled by provision of cleaning and clearance devices as defined in this standard. Cleaning and clearance devices shall not permanently inhibit the driver's external view. The applicable classes as defined in EN 50125-1 !deleted text" shall be defined in the technical specification. The wiped area shall cover at least 80 % of vision area A. It is recommended to wipe the upper middle zone and the bottom corner zones of vision area A. If the wiping device is switched off and the cab is acti
