Safety on track…

Whether transporting passengers or freight, the main requirement is the same:
to be in the right place at the right time. That’s not the only reason why economical rail traffic solutions are so important. The extensive rail network must also be controlled and monitored safely. And there’s the safety of the trains themselves to guarantee.

We offer components and solutions for:

• Signalling systems
• Switchpoint controllers
• Level crossings and level crossing control systems
• Track cleaning systems
• Gate systems

Comprehensive services such as risk analysis or verification of safety solutions complete the range
The modular safety system PNOZmulti is the ideal solution for the safe control of level crossings with flashing light signals or barrier drives. The system’s features include simple connection to the level crossing control system, simple configuration with the PNOZmulti Configurator and reduced wiring and engineering effort.

Platform safety – safe gate functions
A train entering the station must approach quickly and precisely. Trains stop at precisely defined positions, enabling the doors to open and passengers to board and leave the train safely access equipment. Safe sensors from Pilz monitor the safe position and function of the gate equipment. Combined with evaluation logic from Pilz – it’s an economical, safe solution

Safety in the shunting yard
The points in shunting yards must be safely monitored and controlled to ensure that everything runs smoothly. The axles of the carriages must be counted and monitored safely as they pull in and out.
Logic operations with Pilz programmable safety systems PSS are particularly suitable for complex applications

Safety when building and maintaining the tracks
Track bed cleaning machines, ballast distribution and grading machines, machinery for converting track or new build: With our comprehensive product range from safe sensors, safe hardware or software-based control systems through to actuators, Pilz has a tailored for each machine.
