Intelligence for Track Vacancy Detection

The Scheidt & Bachmann axle counting system is thousandfold in Europe and guarantees safe railway operation. It is deployed in the DSTW ZSB 2000 and in the BUES 2000 level crossing protection system.

The axle counting system evaluates the number of detected axles and their direction. The clearance information determined from this is transmitted to the higher-level system.

For very compact applications, the axle counting system can be an integral part of the ZSB 2000 fuse level. It can also be designed as a separate system, which then communicates with the interlocking logic via the standard SCI-TDS interface.

Axle sensor evaluation module

The axle sensor evaluation module evaluates the inductive damping of the axle sensor by the wheel rim and digitally transmits each detected axle with the corresponding direction to the higher-level system.

Axle sensor

The axle sensor consists of two inductive loops built into a compact, impact-resistant and waterproof plastic housing. The component is clamped to the rail with a universal fastening and can be mounted and dismounted very easily.

Feedback

The system consisting of axle sensor and evaluation module can also be used as a feedback signal. The feedback signal is output as a galvanically free contact for any application. Extensive configuration options are available for direction, output delay, output duration, etc. A digital connection to a higher-level control system is possible but not necessary.
