When implementing a triggering system, the operator’s focus is to achieve high reliability and accuracy, maintain smooth operations, and obtain accurate asset management information. Frauscher wheel sensors and wheel detection systems provide crucial train wheel presence and movement data for railroad systems such as hot box detectors, flat wheel detectors or train identification – reliable, accurate and without trackside electronics.
Reliable and accurate wheel detection
Easy installation without drilling
High resilience in harsh track and weather conditions
Analog and digital outputs for seamless integration
Zero speed capability
Remote calibration for maintenance efficiency
The better the data, the better the operation. For a railway to run smoothly and consistently maintain uptime, accurate data is a necessity. This data is acquired through the reliable and precise detection of axles, speed, direction, and exact wheel position for applications such as:
Train identification (AEI readers)
Hot box detection
Wheel flat detection
Lubricators
Wheel impact load detectors
Door control systems
Automatic warning systems
For these and other triggering applications, Frauscher wheel sensors are ideal for accurately monitoring the status of trains and various track situations, providing the optimum basis for data-driven asset management.
To control hot box detection extremely precise working wheel sensors are required.
Modern wheel detection and axle counting systems are in the meantime an integrated part of various flat wheel detection systems.
To control automatic warning systems for safety of working places in the range of rail-bound transport systems usually wheel detection systems are used.
Automated marshalling yards and billing systems are only effective if the vehicles are detected and assigned in an extremely reliable way.
