RAIL Track 500

RAIL TRACK 500 Digital Track Circuit Monitoring Module with Automatic Signal Level

The digital track circuit monitoring module with automatic signal level control DM TCC-AR is a functionally complete track circuit monitoring and coding subsystem with the data reception and transmission via a digital and/or relay interface. The DM TCC-AR module is designed for the existing and newly installed computer-based interlocking systems with audio frequency track circuits for centralized equipment layout.

Advantages

  • High availability of the monitoring and encoding hardware ensured by redundancy of all components and duplication of communication channels.

  • Increased resistance to lightning and surge overvoltage. 

  • High noise immunity of the audio frequency track circuit equipment ensured by the advanced methods of digital signal processing.

  • Elimination of possible human errors due to automatic signal control in the audio frequency track circuits.

  • Ability to select the track circuit encoding frequency (25, 50 or 75 Hz). 

  • Reduced cost and scope of installation work due to application.

MAIN FUNCTIONS

  • Monitoring the track circuit vacancy and occupancy and the track line integrity with transfer of the corresponding data to the CBI.

  • Generation and transmission of continuous automatic cab signaling (ATP) and integrated ATP signals to the track circuits.

  • Comprehensive protection of the track circuit and coding equipment against lightning and surge overvoltage.

  • Automatic voltage adjustment at the track generator output, when voltage at the track receiver input is close to the permissible minimum and maximum limits.

  • Automatic diagnostics of the module components with recording failures and the pre-failure condition of the audio frequency track circuit equipment.
