Station Interlocking Systems

The electronic interlocking unit ESA® 11 (further on as ESA® 11) is used for securing and managing operation in stations with branched rails and without branched rails. The ESA® 11 is the successor of the SZZ-ETB. It is a electronic interlocking unit with an analog interface for outside signaling devices. That means that practically all logic functions are computed by the compu...

The SZZ-ETB is an interlocking unit where most of the logic and signaling connections are done by relay circuits. The SZZ-ETB provides the operating and maintenance personnel comfort comparable with electronic interlocking systems. It is capable of being connected to remote controlled systems and other superior computer systems including simplified control places.

The ESA® 11v a ESA® 11d are types of electronic interlocking units produced by AŽD Praha, intended for the operation on siding and factory tracks and mining railways. The operation of mining machinery is directly dependent on the quick replacing of full vehicles for empty ones.

The remote control of signaling units is used for controlling more interlocking systems from one place (dispatcher central). For increasing reliability the stations are interconnected by two independent communication branches.

The graphic-technological shell of signaling system is a telematic shell for signaling systems used for supporting transport processes on a defined section of the railway line. The basic request is the transmission of train numbers within the signaling system.

The unified control place (JOP) is used as an interface between a traffic employee and a signaling system. It creates an operative level for electronic interlocking systems and remote control centrals (DOZ) of signaling systems.
