Description of the System

ProES is a fully electronic station interlocking system that is used for sidings as well as for national railways.

The heart of the system is the safety PLC HIMA in various versions, which ensures safety at SIL4 level. HIMA, as a commonly available COTS component, allows the client to significantly reduce initial costs and maintenance costs through the planned life of the system.

The connection to outdoor components is provided by various types of interfaces. By the suitable choice of interface, it is possible to ensure connection to outdoor components of various suppliers, or to save costs by using the existing relay interface.

The system can be equipped with an integrated line permission, part of which is located in the neighbouring station.

The system can be controlled from one or more operator workplaces. Each operator workplace is equipped with a visual computer VPC with corresponding number of monitors.

All the safe operations are solved through the safety PLC HIMA, which can also be fully doubled in case of increased requirements for availability. Safety is ensured at level SIL4. For the connection of the outdoor components electronic or relay interface can be used. This allows a connection of any outdoor component from any manufacturer.

For the connection to neighbouring systems data connections can be used. In the case of using the integrated line permission the modules of remote IN/OUT (RIO) are installed into the neighbouring station.

Optionally, the system can be equipped with a service computer SPC, which provides cybernetically secure data connection ProES with external (public or company) data network, through which it is possible to transfer information about operating data or receive data in a predefined scope (e.g. the number of the train).

Description of the System

ProEH is an electronic hybrid station interlocking system, which is designed for both sidings and national railways. The heart of the system is the safety PLC HIMA in various versions, which ensures safety at SIL4 level. HIMA, as a commonly available COTS component, allows the operator to significantly reduce initial costs and maintenance costs through the planned life of the system.

The connection to the outdoor components is in most cases provided by existing relay blocks. Therefore, the installation is suitable for places with existing relay interlocking systems, alternatively, the acquired relay interface is available.

Only the connection to outdoor components in relay blocks is preserved, but the system logic is integrated into HIMA. This solution enables the operator to reduce the initial costs of the acquisition of electronic interlocking system and also enable the subsequent gradual replacement of relay blocks with electronic interface. The system can be equipped with an integrated line permission, which is located in the neighbouring station.

The system can be controlled from one or more operator workplaces. Each operator workplace is equipped with a visual computer VPC with corresponding number of monitors. All the safe operations are solved through the safety PLC HIMA, which can be fully doubled in case of increased requirements for availability. Safety is ensured at level SIL4.

In most cases, existing relay blocks or relay blocks obtained from other projects are used to connect outdoor elements. This allows the deployment of a fully electronic part on an existing relay interlocking system and to gradually upgrade it in the future. For the connection to neighbouring systems data connections can be used. In the case of using the integrated line permission, the modules of remote IN/OUT (RIO) are installed into the neighbouring station.

The system can be optionally equipped with a service computer SPC, which provides cybernetically secure data connection ProEH with external (public or company) data network, through which it is possible to transfer information about operating data or receive data in a predefined scope (e.g. the number of the train).

Description of the System

ProEN is an electronic extension for existing station interlocking systems.

The system is based on safety PLC HIMA, which ensures safety at level SIL4. HIMA, as a commonly available COTS opponent, allows the operator to significantly reduce initial costs and maintenance costs through the planned life of the system.

The connection to the station interlocking system is ensured via an interface, which is always customized to a station interlocking system. The system can be equipped with an integrated line permission, which is located in the neighbouring station.

The ProET line signalling system can also be connected to the ProEN system using a data set.

The system can be controlled from one or more operator workplaces. Each operator workplace is equipped with a visual computer VPC with corresponding number of monitors.

The system provides a full replacement of the existing control panel, in addition to which the functionality is supplemented by new functions, such as securing the protecting track, electronic warning and safety labels, blocking the setting of train routes over the traffic locked elements. All the safe operations are solved through safety PLC HIMA while PLC Simatic series S7 is used for the standard functions.

The safety of the functions associated with the registered operator, is ensured by SIL4 level. It is possible to use data links to connect to the neighbouring components. In the case of using the integrated line permission, the modules of remote IN/OUT (RIO) are installed into the neighbouring station.
The safety of the functions associated with the registered operator is ensured at the SIL4 level. Data connections can be used to connect to neighbouring systems.

The system can be optionally equipped with a service computer SPC, which provides cybernetically secure data connection ProEN with external (public or company) data network, through which it is possible to transfer information about operating data or receive data in a predefined scope (e.g. the number of the train).
