Scope
DIN Taschenbuch 491/2
Railway Testing Standards Reference Handbook Part 2
DIN Taschenbuch 491/2 continues the comprehensive reference compilation of German railway testing standards, extending coverage beyond Part 1. This handbook provides additional testing methodologies, acceptance criteria, and implementation guidance for specialized railway vehicle evaluation. It supports laboratories and manufacturers in applying current recognized standards to dynamic performance, safety, and operational testing. Accreditation bodies require familiarity with both parts to ensure complete coverage of testing procedures and requirements. This resource is essential for maintaining ISO 17025 accreditation in railway testing disciplines.
What it measures
- Extended test procedure specifications
- Specialized acceptance criteria
- Advanced measurement protocols
- Complex documentation requirements
- Standards update and applicability
