本欧洲标准规定了在欧洲网络上使用的铁路车轮的特性。本标准规定了四种钢种，ER6，ER7，ER8，ER9;对于欧洲货车互操作性目的，仅适用于ER6，ER7和ER8等级。注1:ER6级通常不适用于货车的责任;通常应用在低轴载情况下。“某些特性根据类别1或类别2定义。当列车速度高于200公里/小时时，通常选择1类。以低于200的速度运行的货运车辆公里/小时一般使用2类车轮。“这些类别有时可以细分，具体取决于特性。本标准适用于由真空脱气钢制成并具有冷却边缘的固体锻造和滚动轮。它们已经在欧洲网络上已经在商业条件下大量使用，或者符合EN 13979-1的设计技术认证程序。 ！注2“可以在其他文件中找到其他车轮的定义，如UIC传单或ISO标准。注3”技术认证程序不在本标准的范围内。 ！注4“Rim-cold”描述了hea

This European Standard specifies the characteristics of railway wheels for use on European networks. !Four steel grades, ER6, ER7, ER8 and ER9 are defined in this standard; for European freight wagon interoperability purposes only grades ER6, ER7 and ER8 are applicable. NOTE 1 Grade ER6 is not normally fit for the duty of application to freight wagons; it is normally applied in low axleload situations." !Certain characteristics are defined according to a category 1 or a category 2. Category 1 is generally chosen when the train speed is higher than 200 km/h. Freight vehicles running at speeds lower than 200 km/h generally use wheels of Category 2." These categories can sometimes be subdivided, depending upon the characteristics. This standard is applicable to solid forged and rolled wheels which are made from vacuum degassed steel and have a chilled rim. They are to have already been used in commercial conditions on a European network in a significant quantity, or to have satisfied a technical approval procedure according to EN 13979-1 for their design. !NOTE 2" The definition of other wheels may be found in other documents, such as UIC leaflets or ISO standards. !NOTE 3" The technical approval procedure is not within the scope of this standard. !NOTE 4" Rim-chilled" describes heat treatment of the rim, the aim of which is to harden the rim and to create compressive residual stresses in the rim.
