Signalling systems

UTB

Electronic line level crossing control equipment

UTB is a fully electronic level crossing control system developed entirely in Hungary for the automatic, train-operated control of level crossings on open lines. It operates and monitors the level crossing signals, barrier machines and – where present – the railway signals. Members of the family were developed for the specific needs of different railways: for the Hungarian suburban (HÉV) lines, the Bosnian railways and the national railways.

MAS-01, MAS-01/1, MAS-01/2, MAS-01/5, MAS-01/7

Line level crossing control equipment

The MAS-01 control equipment provides automatic, train-operated control of level crossings on open lines. It operates and monitors the level crossing signals and barrier machines and – in the types that have them – the railway signals.

MA-SR

Station level crossing control equipment

The MA-SR equipment was developed to supplement station interlockings and to operate station level crossings. It can protect level crossings that are either interlocked with or monitored by a signal. Its circuit design, modular construction, built-in power supply and outdoor housing make it easy to adapt to the requirements of different interlockings and sites.

MAT, MAT-0170, MAT-0120

Automatic block equipment

Block signalling equipment prevents trains from running into each other or towards each other on open lines. Two types of our equipment for this task are currently in operation.

EVM-120, M-62

Vigilance and train control equipment family

The EVM on-board equipment increases the overall safety of train operation. It decodes and displays the coded 75 Hz signal received from the track and checks that the signal aspect is obeyed, and it also monitors the alertness and fitness of the driver. If the driver does not react properly to warnings, the equipment stops the train with an emergency brake application.

EVB

Individual point control equipment

We developed our individual point control equipment to allow safe and convenient operation of individual points that are not controlled by any other interlocking. Railway staff set the points by wireless remote control or with a push button, and a two-aspect dwarf signal next to the points shows the train crew the end position of the points and the other conditions for safe movement.

MA-KVE

Intermediate point detection device

The MA-KVE intermediate detection can be used to report the electrical end position of turnouts with a switch rail opening of 60–170 mm.

RVB

Loading protection equipment

Our loading protection equipment provides the safety interlocking between rail traffic and loading operations at the transhipment points of industrial sites. Starting the loading and moving the train are made mutually exclusive.

Point machines and barrier drives

MA-HVH-K

Hydraulic point machine

The MA-HVH-01-K point machine family can operate turnouts with conventional clamp locks or Spherolock locking, and large-radius turnouts with Hydrolink power transmission. It locks them hydraulically or mechanically, and detects and reports their end position electrically.

MA-HVH

Hydraulic in-sleeper point machine

The MA-HVH point machine moves the switch rails of railway turnouts using electrically generated hydraulic power, locks them hydraulically and mechanically, and detects their end position electrically. It is suitable for both simple and large-radius turnouts.

MA-HSH-03

Hydraulic barrier machine

The MA-HSH-03 hydraulic barrier machine is an electrically controlled, pneumo-hydromechanically driven mechanism. When commanded, it physically closes road traffic at level crossings, lights the barrier boom with flashing lights and reports the position of the boom. It can be installed both on open lines and in stations.

MA-HVH

Derailer machine

Our point machines are also available in a version that can electrically operate and detect derailers.

Point heating

VVFR

Electric point and trough heating system

A complete, modular system based on many years of construction experience – from the pole-mounted transformer station supplying the power to the heating elements.

Train detection and components

AV 13k

13 kHz track circuit generator

The 13 kHz track circuit unit is an electronic device built with printed circuit technology. It is used as a train detection element, mainly in level crossing protection equipment.

75HV, 75 HV/U

75 Hz track circuit receiver

The 75 Hz electronic receiver is the train detection element of coded track circuits. It detects whether the track is clear or occupied and recognises insulation failures of the insulated rail joints separating consecutive block sections.

SVM

Track relay replacement module

We designed the track relay replacement module to replace track relays with electronic devices. The module receives the signal from the track at its input, then amplifies and evaluates it in two channels. Its output is provided by the contacts of safety relays.

MELI, MELI-01, MELI-01p, MELI-02

Electronic safety timer

We designed the MELI family of electronic safety timers for railway signalling applications. The devices perform timing tasks of different durations at different safety levels.

SKÉV

Barrier manual closure monitor

When station and line level crossing barriers are closed manually, the unit reduces the risk of them being left closed by sounding an acoustic signal at intervals until they are released.

IFF

LED light source replacing signal bulbs

The MA-IFF light source is a fully compatible replacement for the signal bulbs in the railway and road signals of railway equipment. Thanks to its long life, good visibility and additional functions it is a cost-effective long-term solution. Its expected life is about twenty times that of a bulb, so disruptions caused by burnt-out bulbs and operating costs are reduced to a fraction.

BJE

Safety relay unit

For free-wired circuits we offer our boxed safety (class 2) relays. Each unit contains one relay.
