The Product

 

How does the Magnetically Attached Temporary Speed Restriction Board work?

Erecting the system is a matter of a few steps:

  1. Click the stanchion using the magnet into the web of the rail.
  2. Repeat the steps above with additional TSR Boards until the entire length of the working area has been secured
  3. Dismantle in reverse:                   

The Magnetically Attached TSR Board when working on the track

Employees that perform engineering work on the track must be able to work in total safety. The workforce needs to alert Train Drivers to reduce speeds in the area being worked on to protect them from trains are still running.

  • The RSS Railway Safety System has been tested by HHC/DRS Inspecties B.V. and certified to EN 13374 (Class A), the industry directive RLN0077-V004 July 2010 and the Health & Safety regulation 3.16 of The Netherlands Ministry of Social Affairs & Employment
  • The magnet is very strong (tensile force up to 600 Kg/N) and cannot be pulled off
  • Easy dismantling with one arm movement, using the patented head attachment ~the RSS TSR Board can be erected in seconds (within a safe system of work in a Line Blockage).
  • Stanchions made of high-quality galvanized steel and aluminium

Q.

How long will it take to erect?

A.

One operative can carry the site to a position designated by the COSS. Assuming the COSS takes a line blockage under a SSOW (Safe System of Work), the TSR Board can be assembled and erected in 3-5 minutes and locked to the rail if necessary.

The Benefits

The RSS Railway Safety System consists of only two components

  1. The RSS Railway Safety System has been tested by HHC/DRS Inspecties B.V. and certified to EN 13374 (Class A), and is approved by Network Rail PA05
  2. No loose components, No tools needed
  3. No danger of damaging underground signalling cables
  4. Allows tamping & ballast cleaning to continue whilst in-situ
  5. Very strong magnet (tensile force up to 600 Kg/N)
  6. Easy dismantling with one arm movement
  7. Does NOT affect track circuits or Axle counters
  8. Can be used in areas with S & C
  9. Safe to use, with no hazardous pathogens or ‘Silica Ballast Dust’ generated.
  10. Safe and fast assembly/disassembly, with a simple magnetic attachment to the web of the rail, with no removal or replacement of ballast and thus a major saving in working and possession costs (within a Safe System of work can be erected in a line-blockage – 100m/15mins)
  11. Can be used in freezing temperatures (to-20oC) with frozen ballast or in high temperatures (to+80oC) when ‘track distortion’ is an issue.

The patented Magnetically Attached TSR Board is easy to use and will therefore, be used!

The Conclusion

Easy to use – no digging ballast ~ just a simple Magnetic Attachment to the Rail.

Quick installation/dismantling – saves both Time and Money.
