Traffic Control Equipment - Signal Heads
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 12368 standard pertains to signal heads used in road traffic. These signal heads typically consist of one or more signal lights, including red, yellow, and/or green lights. The standard specifies the requirements for signal heads with roundels measuring either 200 mm or 300 mm in diameter. It also covers the optical units integrated into these signal heads to generate the individual signal lights.
This standard outlines the necessary characteristics for the visual, structural, and environmental performance of signal heads and optical units. It also addresses the testing procedures to ensure that these products meet the specified requirements. The standard's scope includes signal heads used in pedestrian areas as well as those used in road traffic. The aim of this standard is to ensure the safety and effectiveness of signal heads in directing and controlling traffic flow.
