This European Standard defines, for the purpose of ensuring compatibility between rolling stock and axle counter systems, the measurement and evaluation methods of rolling stock emissions to demonstrate compatibility. The established limits for compatibility are defined as magnetic field strength that can disturb the axle counter detectors, as part of the axle counter system.
In the relevant frequency range of the axle counter detectors the magnetic field is dominant and only this type of field is considered. Experience has shown that the effects of electric fields are insignificant and therefore not considered.
For axle counters systems whose limits are not defined in terms of magnetic fields at a detector level, National Rules apply where they exist (for more details, see also 4.1).
The influence from metal parts or inductively coupled resonant circuits on the vehicle, eddy current brakes or magnetic brakes is out of the scope of this EN. Compatibility is established through individual testing according to the EN 50238 series or National Notified Technical Rules.
