TROCELLEN CLASS TRAIN is certified R1 HL3, according to the norm EN

45545-2 “Fire protection on railway vehicles. Part 2: Requirements for fire

behaviour of materials and components”.

EN 45545 norms indicate requirements of materials and components to be

installed in railway vehicles with the aim of guaranteeing the protection of

passengers and staff, in the event of a fire on board.

The above mentioned norms introduce the concept of hazard level of a

vehicle (HL1, HL2 and HL3, depending on increasing hazard), as a combination

of two elements: the operational category (OC) and the design category, that

is related to the type of rolling stock.

Depending on the type of product to install and its position within the rail

vehicle, the EN 45545-2 norm indicates 26 requirements to be fulfilled.

R1 is the specific requirement for insulation materials.

In detail, R1 requirement refers to:

• Interior vertical surfaces (walls, partitions, doors, windows, insulation

materials, kitchen interior surfaces…)

• Interior horizontal downward-facing surfaces (ceiling paneling, insulation

materials...)

• Air ducts - Interior surfaces

• Air ducts - Exterior surfaces

Main advantages:

• made of long lasting closed cell polyethylene insulation foam;

• very good reaction to fire;

• classified R1 HL3 according to EN 45545-2;

• suitable to be installed in any rolling stock category, even in sleeping and

couchette vehicles;

• good thermal conductivity (? at 0 °C: 0,038 W/mK);

• constant insulation value for at least 23 years, probably longer *;

• closed cells, to inhibit water absorption;

• clean, non toxic, mould and bacteria resistant, odorless;

• flexible enough to follow tight angles and strong enough to withstand rough

handling;

• economically convenient.
