Level crossing
Wayguard LCM 200
Protecting level crossings has been one of our core competencies for many years. The design of the Wayguard LCM 200 is shaped by the needs of our customers and our knowledge about level crossings. The idea is innovative as the level-crossing control system is largely integrated into the hardware and software of the Simis W and Simis IS interlockings. For this reason complex interfaces between level-crossing control system and interlocking are not necessary, enabling us to offer an excellent and cost-effective level-crossing solution.
Product features
- Integration of level crossing control into the hardware and software of Simis W and Simis IS interlockings
- Consistent and well-structured architecture of the interlockings and level crossings.
- Existing outdoor systems can largely be integrated.
- Data transmission via ISDN or Ethernet/SHDSL connection
- Local or web-based monitoring and diagnosis of the level crossing.
Customer benefits
- High-availability system
- No additional hardware needed thanks to software management of the interfaces between the levelcrossing control system and the Simis W or Simis IS interlocking
- Efficient corrective maintenance thanks to local, web-based diagnostics
- No need for walk-in control cabins as the LCM 200 control system is best housed in a cabinet
- It can be powered either by the interlocking’s uninterruptable power supply or via a local power supply
Economical advantages
- Easy project management and integration reduces investment costs
- Cost-optimized maintenance thanks to the integration of a top-level, standardized diagnostics system
