scope:

NEN-EN 13129 establishes comfort parameters of air conditioning for passenger compartments or saloons of railway vehicles (single level or double-decker). These comfort parameters apply in a similar way to the areas reserved for train staff. The European Standard also specifies conditions, performance values and the comfort parameter measurement methods for compartments or saloons. This European Standard is applicable to main line rail vehicles. It does not apply to suburban vehicles, metros, tramways and driver's cabs.
