Axle Counter
The axle counter is a device that tracks the position of a train by counting the number of axles passing over specific points on the track. It can be used in various operating sections including maintenance depots, station premises and both single and double-track lines. The system is configured with an optical ring network and is not affected by weather conditions or track state.
The indoor axle evaluation unit is a safety-proven device certified to SIL4 standards.
Configuration
Configuration of track sections up to 20 km
Flange count detection of train wheels
Train detection at speeds of up to 360 km/h
Detection of train travel direction
Supports up to 30 Track Relay Interfaces / ACE units
Remote/local track section reset in case of abnormal events
Ideal for lines with very high train density, operational bottlenecks or areas that are difficult to access during failures (e.g., tunnels)
Optimal for use in high-speed rail, urban transit systems and light rail networks
