Contactless, On-track, bi-directional Railway AWS Magnets (COBRA)
New generation ground-based railway vehicle detection magnets, designed with reduced weights, better detection and with no On-board electronics for increased resilience in trackside environments.
What is
COBRA?
COBRA is a new range of AWS magnets for legacy and new 24VDC and 110VAC Standard and High strength Electro, Suppressor & permanent track based detection magnets.
Applications
Railways
- Fixed Installation Automatic Warning Systems
- 24VDC & 110VAC systems
The Journey
The COBRA range of fixed installation AWS magnets evolved from the success of Haide Technologies novel Digital TSR System and switchable DAWS magnet. COBRA magnets answer the demand for lighter, more reliable fixed installation AWS magnets, absent of On-Board, current compensating electronics currently needed in AWS magnets. COBRA magnets are immune to impact, immersion and thermal degradation typically being the failure mode of current AWS track based magnets.
Key Features
COBRA range of AWS magnets
- Reduce legacy magnet weights by up to 60%
- No On-Board electronics, Firmware & microcontrollers are needed to maintain the required field of a COBRA magnet, increasing system reliability and robustness.
- Resistant to dynamic changes in temperature and the impact of solar gain.
- Significant impact resistance over legacy magnets.
- IP integrity on flooded lines.
- Legacy Plug and play compatibility with existing AWS infrastructure.
Deployment Use Cases
- Legacy compatible for retrofit applications
- Reduced weights for lifting and handling
- Improvements to B-field plateau for line speed detection on 3rd rail systems.
- Long-term installations on permanent infrastructure
