The Product
How does the Magnetically Attached Trench Safety Barrier work?
Erecting the system is a matter of a few steps:
- Click the stanchion using the magnet into the web of the rail.
- Click the next stanchion into the web of the rail at a distance of about 3 metres.
- Place the GRP handrail tube in the holder and attach the next tube with a simple patented interlocking system.
- Repeat the steps above until the entire length of the working area
has been secured.
Dismantle in reverse:
The Magnetically Attached Trench Safety Barrier when working on the track.
- Employees that perform engineering work on the track must be able to work in total safety. A fence needs to screen the area being worked from the track on which 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.
- Stanchions made of high-quality galvanised steel – handrails in GRP

The Benefits
Benefits of the Magnetically Attached Trench Safety Barrier
The RSS Railway Safety System consists of only two components.
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 05085.
❖No loose components.
❖No tools needed.
❖No danger of damaging underground signalling cables.
❖Allows tamping & ballast cleaning to continue whilst in-situ.
❖Very strong magnet (tensile force up to 600 Kg/N).
❖Easy dismantling with one arm movement.
❖Does NOT affect track circuits or Axle counters.
❖Can be used in areas with S & C.
❖Safe to use, with no hazardous pathogens or ‘Silica Ballast Dust’ generated.
❖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).
❖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 Trench Safety Barrier
is easy to use and will therefore, be used!
