What is PD CLC/TS 50238 ‑ 3 - Compatibility between RST and axle counters about?
PD CLC/TS 50238 is a series of standards on railway vehicles that defines the interference limits and evaluation criteria for electromagnetic compatibility between rolling stock and axle counter detectors.
PD CLC/TS 50238 ‑ 3 is the third part of the PD CLC/TS 50238 series of documents that give recommended individual limits to be applied to establish compatibility between RST and all selected types of axle counter detectors, including any covered by national standards.
The list of selected types of axle counters and their limits for compatibility are drawn on the basis of established performance criteria.
To ensure adequate operational availability, it is essential that the rolling stock complies with the defined limits; otherwise, the established availability of the valid output function of axle counter detectors may be compromised.
