PRODUCTS Rail Safety
SIRIO LX is a radar -based automatic system for preventing train from colliding with obstacles on the track at level crossings. It has been designed to ensure the highest level of safety standard (SIL4, CENELEC 50129)
Features
-
Safe: Safety Integrity Level (SIL) 4, based on CENELEC EN 50129
-
Flexible: Observes a parallelogram shaped area with configurable angles and size
-
Modular: up to 4 radar sensors can be used in the same installation site covering all geometries of level crossing
-
Performance: Extremely low false alarm probability even in harsh weather conditions (fog, rain, snow) and in all light conditions
-
Reliable: MTBF > 10 years
-
Diagnostic Video Camera: Video (closed circuit TV) transmission when obstacle detection occurs for system diagnostic purposes
