We have focused our capabilities and technological offer for railway safety and security on the most sensible goals:
- Singular buildings: repair shops, sheds, depots and technical buildings
- Track sections: tunnels, overpasses, viaducts, cuttings, level crossings and rail yards
- Terminals: stations, stops and other transport terminals
- Vehicles: rolling stock, passenger vehicles and trains, buses, etc.
Security for buildings
- Access points inside facilities
- Tactical objective: access points in facilities
Protection of machinery, systems, material in stock and rolling stock
- Perimeter protection: fencing with sound system to accurately detect intruders.
- Perimeter CCTV and mobile indoor camera support. Smart video option
- Early detection systems: surface radars and unattended underground sensors. os
- Access control using cards and other biometric mechanisms
- Fire detection and extinction systems
Safety and security in tunnels
Detecting access to tunnels is essential for taking preventive measures to avoid accidents (collisions) and traffic risks.
- Objective: to avoid damage to rolling stock and vehicles at all costs
- Perimeter protection: to avoid intrusion in infrastructures by vandals, saboteurs and inattentive passers-by. Use of sensor barriers
- Fire detection and extinction systems: use of fibrolaser sensors, smoke extractors, etc., and ventilation
- Detection of movements in the tunnel (safety): seismic sensors
Safety and security at level crossings
- Objective: Objective: to prevent collisions caused by vehicles on tracks and to provide recordings
- Installation of CCTV systems that detect offenders, act as legal evidence in the event of collisions, activate alarm systems
- Sensor systems (laser barriers, IR, microwaves) that detect unauthorised access
- Mechanisms to physically block the road when the barriers are lowered
- CCTV is the basic system for detecting offenders, imposing fines and providing legal evidence in case of an accident, and it should be used in conjunction with other sensors
Safety and security in trenches
- Objective: to detect ground movements and rocks falling onto the tracks
- Installation of fences with sensors to detect the movement of the ground and rocks rolling down slopes
- Sensors on the track platform to detect the impact of falling rocks or landslides
- CCTV System to display the current status of the tracks in order to discard false alarms
- Option to use video analysis to detect falling objects
- The detection conditions for these types of events in aggressive outdoor environments are a challenge for the durability of the devices, and for calibrating them. Objective: low level of false alarms
Safety and security at the mouths of tunnels, viaducts and overpasses
- Objective: to prevent derailments resulting from objects accidentally or intentionally falling on the tracks
- Installation of sensor barriers to cover the track platform
- Installation of fences with sensors to detect falling objects or attempted accesses
- Installation of support CCTV to verify the alarms raised by other sensors and the status of black spots
Safety and security at transport terminals
- Objective: to prevent urban vandalism and passenger assaults
- Enclosures and perimeter fences to prevent access by individuals without a ticket during the day and all night-time access
- Perimeter sensors at black spots
- Perimeter CCTV and mobile indoor cameraswith video recorders
- Option to analyse the video
- Control of access to technical offices
- Sensors for ticket issuing machines in order to detect vandalism and theft
- Fire detection and extinction systems
- In certain areas at risk from terrorism: use of radio frequency inhibitors and video analysis of abandoned objects and suspicious behaviour
Onboard safety and security
- Objective: to increase passenger safety by monitoring the inside of trains, trams and buses from the control centre Installation of CCTV onboard passenger carriages to display all areas of the train
- Installation of CCTV onboard passenger carriages to display all areas of the train
- Mass onboard video recordingsand transmission from specific cameras to the Control Centre in real time through wireless technology
- Option to include audio inside the vehicle in the system
- Control monitor in the driver's control unit
