Annotation of standard text ČSN EN 12082-2 (280535):

This document is a part of a package of standards: EN 12080, EN 12081, EN 12082-1 and EN 12082-2.

This document specifies the principles and methods for deployment of the system of axlebox rolling bearing(s), housing, seal(s) and grease, required for reliable operation of trains on European networks.

It covers the conformity assessment with respect to design requirements on the rolling bearing(s) according EN 12080 and grease according EN 12081 as well as the performance of (rig) tests according to EN 12082-1. This document is historically developed for outboard applications with rotating inner rings, but can be used for vehicles with inboard bearing arrangements with rotating inner rings.

The present document describes the complete deployment procedure for new axleboxes and it specifies the necessary type and extent of testing. For certain cases and based on a documented risk assessment, a reduced deployment procedure is described.

This document only applies to axleboxes equipped with rolling bearings and greases according to EN 12080 and EN 12081.

It is not within the scope of EN 12082-2 to specify the technical details of the testing procedures, these are covered by EN 12082-1.

It is not within the scope of EN 12082-2 to define the validation procedure of box housings, sleeves or covers from a structural point of view. The relevance of these parts in the scope of this document is limited to the interaction with the axle box rolling bearing with respect to the required service
