Pertains to hydraulic dampers and their end mountings used on rail vehicles.

This European Standard applies to hydraulic dampers and their end mountings used on rail vehicles. The dampers covered in this standard include:

• dampers that control the dynamic behaviour of a vehicle:

  • suspensions dampers, (e.g. primary vertical dampers, secondary vertical dampers and secondary lateral dampers);

  • yaw dampers;

  • roll dampers;

  • inter-vehicles dampers.

• dampers that control the dynamic behaviour of mechanical systems:

  • pantograph dampers;

  • motor dampers, etc.

All relevant terminology which is specific to the subject is defined in this European Standard.
