Railway applications - Railway Rolling stock - Draw gear and screw coupling; German version EN 15566:2022
This standard specifies the requirements for the draw gear and screw coupling for the end of rolling stock that has to couple with other rolling stock (freight wagons, locomotives, passenger vehicles, etc.). This standard covers the functionality, construction, interfaces and testing including pass/fail criteria for draw gear and screw coupling. The standard describes three categories of classification of draw gear and screw coupling, (1 MN, 1,2 MN and 1,5 MN). Coupling systems between permanent coupled vehicle units are not in the scope of this standard. This document is based on UIC 520:2003, UIC 825:1985, UIC 826:2004, UIC 827-1:1990 and UIC 827- 2:1981.
