6 Safety requirements
6.1 Minimum safety requirements
6.1.1 The maximum failure rate of the PAS for the request of the brake application shall be less than
−5
10 failure/h.
−5
NOTE 1 Experience shows that for urban rail vehicles, a maximum failure rate of 10 failure/h is an
acceptable threshold (VDV 161/2:2009).

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
SIST EN 16334-2:2020
EN 16334-2:2020 (E)
NOTE 2 The requirement is limited to the events 'request of brake application' without considering the
engagement of the action.
Based on the safety analysis in accordance with EN 50126-1, stricter requirements may be requested
(e.g. for driverless operation).
6.1.2 The maximum failure rate of the PAS for a PAD activation announcement (acoustic and visual
−5
signalling) shall be less than 10 failure/h. For failure analysis a redundancy effect of the acoustic and
the visual signalling may be taken into account.
−5
NOTE Experience shows that for urban rail vehicles, a maximum failure rate of 10 failure/h is an
acceptable threshold (VDV 161/2:2009).
Based on the safety analysis in accordance with EN 50126-1, stricter requirements may be requested
(e.g. for driverless operation).
6.1.3 The ability of the PAS to transmit the activation signal of a PAD to the driver shall be monitored
by dedicated technical devices, if the reliability of the system in conveying the activation signal is
−5
insufficient (more than 10 failure/h). This may be reached by permanent monitoring of that ability,
and it shall be demonstrated through a safety analysis.
6.1.4 It shall not be possible to automatically or remotely bypass or switch off a PAI.
NOTE 1 This is to ensure that a member of the on-board operational staff carries out this action.
NOTE 2 The consequence is that this PAI has no more function.
6.1.5 Further operation of the train after the bypass or the switch off of a part of the PAS shall only be
possible if authorized by appropriate substitute measures (e.g. operational rules).
6.2 Complementary safety requirements for AUGT
The complementary safety requirements for AUGT are defined in EN 62267:2009, 8.5.10 and 8.5.11.
7 Functional requirements
7.1 General
The aim of this Passenger Alarm System is to:
a) permit passengers in case of emergency situations to alert the driver or the Operations Control
Centre (OCC);
b) stop the train according to the operational rules;
c) permit the train to keep moving, subject to conditions, or to stop at a safe location.
7.2 Advise the driver (and optionally other on-board operation staff or OCC) of a
potential danger
7.2.1 Mandatory functions
7.2.1.1 PAD shall be available in the passenger area (see Clause 10 for PAD installation
requirements).
8

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
SIST EN 16334-2:2020
EN 16334-2:2020 (E)
PAI shall be available in the passenger area for AUGT and in all cars without the possibility of direct
communication with operational staff. This is necessary in order to ensure that a communication link is
present.
7.2.1.2 The information that at least one PAD has been operated shall be transmitted to the driver
or in case of an AUGT to the OCC.
7.2.1.3 An acoustic and visual signal shall be given to the driver when a PAD has been operated. For
the duration of signals and triggering conditions see Clause 8.
Colour and frequency of visual and acoustic signals in the driver’s cab can conform to the requirements
of the EN 16186 series.
7.2.1.4 In addition, if remote resetting of PADs is available, an acoustic signal shall be activated for
each new activation of a PAD, in accordance with the safety requirements given in Clause 6.
7.2.1.5 The maximum permitted delay from any PAD operated and the acoustic and visual signal for
the driver shall be 2 s. If the optional link to the OCC is used the maximum permitted delay to trigger the
train based subsystem that transmits the information to the OCC shall be 2 s.
7.2.1.6 When the driver has acknowledged, each acoustic signal shall be turned off within 1 s, and
the visual signal should change within 1 s. It is permitted to retain a flashing light as a reminder for the
driver. A visual signal shall remain until all the operated PADs have been reset.
NOTE The way the OCC manages this internal information is outside of the scope of this document.
7.2.1.7 Detected functional faults of the PAS shall be indicated to the driver or the OCC for
appropriate ac

1 Scope
This document specifies the characteristics of the Passenger Alarm System (PAS) for Urban Rail.
This document covers the PAS fitted to the passenger carrying Urban Rail rolling stock and specifies:
— the safety related requirements;
— the functional requirements of PAS triggered by pasasengers;
— the requirements for the communication channel between passengers and the driver or OCC;
— the requirements for the functional behaviour of the PAS;
— the requirements for the degraded modes management;
— the requirements for the Passenger Alarm Device (PAD) and PAD area.
This document is applicable to the categories I to III of Urban Rail rolling stock defined in
CEN/CLC Guide 26:
— (I) metros;
— (II) trams;
— (III) light rail.
NOTE 1 CEN/CLC Guide 26 defines Metro, Tram and Light Rail as public transport systems permanently guided
at least by one rail, intended for the operation of local, urban and suburban passenger services with self-propelled
vehicles and operated either segregated or not from general road and pedestrian traffic.
NOTE 2 The PAS function on existing vehicles may require modification to work in conjunction with vehicles
that comply with this document.
NOTE 3 This European Standard covers urban rail rolling stock, both with or without a driver.
NOTE 4 For rolling stock devoted to suburban passenger services, this European Standard applies when the
TSIs do not apply.

6 Safety requirements
6.1 Minimum satefy requirements
6.1.1 The failure rate of the PAS for the request of the brake application shall be less than
−6
10 failure/h.
6.1.2 The failure rate of the PAS for a PAD activation announcement (acoustic and visual signalling)
−6
shall be less than 10 failure/h. For failure analysis a redundancy effect of the acoustic and the visual
signalling may be taken into account.

oSIST prEN 16334-2:2019
prEN 16334-2:2018 (E)
6.1.3 The ability of the PAS to transmit the activation signal of a PAD to the driver shall be monitored
by dedicated technical devices, if the reliability of the system in conveying the activation signal is
−6
insufficient (more than 10 failure/h). This may be reached by permanent monitoring of that ability,
and it shall be demonstrated through a safety analysis.
6.1.4 A PAS passenger area module shall not be automatically or remotely isolated.
NOTE 1 This is to ensure that a member of the on-board operational staff carries out the isolation.
NOTE 2 Isolation of that part of the PAS passenger area module means to by-pass it or to switch it off. The
consequence is that this module has no more function.
6.1.5 Further operation of the train after the isolation of a part of the PAS system shall only be
possible if authorized by appropriate substitute measures (e.g. operational rules).
6.2 Complementary satefy requirements for AUGT
The complementary safety requirements for AUGT are defined in EN 62267:2009, 8.5.10 and 8.5.11.
7 Functional requirements
7.1 General
The aim of this Passenger Alarm System is to:
a) permit passengers in case of emergency situations to alert the driver or the Operations Control
Centre (OCC);
b) stop the train automatically according to the operational rules;
c) permit the train to keep moving, subject to conditions, or to stop at a safe location.
7.2 Advise the driver (and optionally other on-board operation staff or OCC) of a
potential danger
7.2.1 Mandatory functions
7.2.1.1 PAD shall be available in the passenger area (see Clause 10 for PAD installation
requirements).
7.2.1.2 The information that at least one PAD has been operated shall be transmitted to the driver
or in case of an AUGT to the OCC.
7.2.1.3 An acoustic and flashing visual signal shall be given to the driver when a PAD has been
operated. For the duration of signals and triggering conditions see Clause 8.
Colour and frequency of visual and acoustic signals in the driver’s cab can conform to the requirements
of the EN 16186 series.
7.2.1.4 In addition, if remote resetting of PADs is available, an acoustic signal shall be activated for
each new activation of a PAD, in accordance with the safety requirements given in Clause 6.
7.2.1.5 The maximum permitted delay from any PAD operated and the acoustic and visual signal for
the driver shall be 2 s. If the optional link to the OCC is used the maximum permitted delay to trigger the
train based subsystem that transmits the information to the OCC shall be 2 s.
