To ensure safety and interoperability, this Standard gives:-the limits for in-service and off-vehicle wheelsets;-the operations to be carried out for which the specific values (and/or criteria) remain to be defined in the maintenance plan.This European Standard applies to wheelsets and axle boxes complying with the following European Standards:-EN 13103, EN 13104;-EN 13260, EN 13261, EN 13262;-EN 13979-1;-EN 13715;-EN 13749.that comprise:-the axle mounted with wheel diameters greater than or equal to 330 mm;-axle boxes with bearings and grease.This European Standard is also applicable to wheelsets:-fitted with brake discs, final drive, transmission or noise-damping systems, as appropriate;-not complying with the above European Standards, but complying with the international requirements in force, for example in UIC leaflets, before the approval of these standards; -with tyred wheels;-with resilient wheels.For equipment not covered by Directive 2008/57/EC, this European Standard may be applied, noting that different values may be used.All dimensions in this Standard are in millimetres (mm).It is necessary to describe in a specific document the tasks to be performed in order to maintain wheelsets within the limits defined therein.NOTEThe specific values and criteria are defined in an appropriate maintenance plan.
