Solutions Railway Level crossing safety

Protection of installations at level crossing protection systems

The safety of people and the functionality of systems at road and rail crossings are subject to several influencing factors. On the one hand, the view of level crossings may be restricted by buildings, trees or other obstacles. Another risk factor is the possible errors of road users. Technical faults within the safety systems must be ruled out, as the braking distance of trains makes it almost impossible for the train driver to intervene spontaneously in critical situations.

Level crossing protection systems must also function stably during thunderstorms. Protection solutions from DEHN enable railway and road traffic to be secured and coordinated – reliably and simply.

Solutions for level crossing protection systems

Passing railway level crossings safely – this is actually an everyday thing. Yet there is no other place where people and railway carriages come so close together. Level crossings are therefore hazardous points, the safeguarding of which requires maximum reliability.

The protection and availability of power supply and data technology are key to the smooth operation of level crossing protection systems. Take advantage of our extensive range of products and solutions for the lightning and surge protection of level crossing safety systems.
