Comfort parameters;
EN 14750-2, Railway applications — Air conditioning for urban and suburban rolling stock — Part 2: Type
tests.
In the context of this series, there are two further series on air conditioning in rolling stock:
EN 13129-1, Railway applications — Air conditioning for main line rolling stock — Part 1: Comfort
parameters;
EN 13129-2, Railway applications — Air conditioning for main line rolling stock — Part 2: Type tests;
EN 14813-1, Railway applications — Air conditioning for driving cabs — Part 1: Comfort parameters;
EN 14813-2, Railway applications — Air conditioning for driving cabs — Part 2: Type tests.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following

Introduction
The object of this European Standard is to establish common comfort parameters for the European railways. It
also specifies the performance of the air-conditioning installations.
If necessary, the revised requirements due to the operating constraints of the vehicle will be detailed in the
contractual specification. This European Standard applies if there is no particular clause in the contractual
specification.

1 Scope
This European Standard is applicable to suburban and/or regional vehicles and also metro and tramway
vehicles equipped with cooling and/or heating/ventilation systems. This European Standard excludes main
line vehicles and driving cabs which are considered in separate European Standards.
This European Standard spe
