Description
Rail Vital Protec is the ECM label that identifies a new family of products designed for the protection of people and material resources on a railway work site, based on tried and tested experience in the field of ECM signaling (Discolux Optoelectronic Signaling) and in the systems of ATP/ATC (e.g. SSC, SCMT/ETCS); Rail Vital Protec is arranged to be interfaced with some of the most commonly used Automatic Track Warning Systems (ATWS).
Rail Vital Protec products are designed in compliance with CENELEC standards to ensure a SIL4 safety level and were studied with extra care in terms of all the aspects of installation, maintenance and transportability.
The flexibility and meticulous attention with which the products of the Rail Vital Protec family are designed make them especially suitable for multiple uses in the protection of persons and equipment; in fact they make up the Rail Vital Protec family as a real scalable system according to various needs
The Rail Vital Protec products make it possible to transport and install the basic elements that make up the Information Points of the SCMT/ ERTMS quickly and efficiently, in conjunction with Optoelectronic Signals.
They range from the simple temporary installation of Eurobalise, with the possibility of assisted shielding, to the most comprehensive Worksite Protection Information Points (WPIPs) running on batteries, supplied with manual control, and interfaced with common Automatic Track Warning Systems (ATWS) and the WPIP based on two-way wireless radio, GPS,GSMR, etc. This enables interaction between the system and the site personnel, who can manage their own position by means of personal transmission/receiving instruments.
