Yapi Merkezi Chooses Frauscher For Track Vacancy Detection
The Tanzania Railway Corporation has commissioned the Turkish company Yapi Merkezi to implement a new railway line in the African country. The first of a total of five sections will cover some 205km. From Dar Es Salaam on the coast to Morogoro.

Yapi chose the Frauscher Advanced Counter FAdC and the Wheel Sensor RSR180 for the planning of the track vacancy detection system. The contract was signed in early October 2018 by Michael Thiel, CEO Frauscher Sensor Technology, and Orze Arioglu, CEO Yapi Merkezi Global Construction Group. In total, around 450 counting heads will be installed on the first two construction phases alone.

The modularity and flexible interfaces of the FAdC allow Yapi the greatest possible independence in infrastructure design. The axle counter can be easily and quickly integrated into various interlockings. The RSR180 has already proven its reliability in various markets around the globe.

FRAUSCHER ADVANCED COUNTER FAdC
The greatest flexibility
Functional modularity, flexible scalability and an Ethernet-based software interface permit a wide range of configurations. The savings on space, energy and investment costs increase with project scale thanks to state-of-the-art communications technologies.

For example, the operation of small, centralised systems is just as possible as the implementation of complex systems.

Optimum integration
Connection to a high-performance electronic interlocking is possible both via a customer-specific interface and the Frauscher protocol FSE. In this way, higher-level applications can be provided with all the functional and diagnostic information required.

In addition, clusters that are spread along the track can also be connected via the Ethernet to form a decentralised architecture.

OUTDOOR EQUIPMENT
Frauscher_Axle_Counting_Outdoor_Equipment.jpg

Benefits to you
  • Highly available wheel sensors
  • Simplified mounting
  • In-house accessories
  • Maintenance-free operation
More information
The outdoor equipment is composed of the sensor, mounted on one of the running rails, the trackside connection box and the cables that connect them. As is the case with all Frauscher axle counting systems, this equipment is also based on the Frauscher RSR180 and RSR123 wheel detection system sensors.

Frauscher wheel sensors are mounted on one of the running rails easily, quickly and without the need for drilling, using rail claws. This reduces the time spent by personnel in a hazardous area to a minimum.

INDOOR EQUIPMENT
Frauscher_Axle_Counting_Indoor_Equipment.jpg

Benefits to you
  • Perfectly coordinated components
  • Flexible configuration options
  • Option for decentralised architecture
  • Minimal space requirements
More information
The data from the sensor are transmitted to the indoor equipment. At this point, the AEB evaluation board of the FAdC takes over the evaluation of the information supplied by the sensor as well as the counting of axles. Data generated in this way are transmitted to the communication board, which provides the acquired data to higher-level systems via various interfaces.

INTERFACES
Frauscher_Axle_Counting_Interfaces.jpg

Benefits to you
  • Flexible interfaces
  • Vital data transmission
  • Wireless communication is possible
  • Simple integration
More information
Efficient software interfaces are what make the FAdC stand out in particular. System integrators have the opportunity to implement the Frauscher Safe Ethernet FSE without using their own software protocol. Alternatively, customer-specific protocols can also be integrated. It is also possible to connect existing systems via hardware interfaces such as optocouplers or relays.

WHEEL DETECTION SYSTEMS
A highly effective combination
Highly available wheel detection systems are an integral part of a wide variety of railway applications, from simple switching tasks to fail-safe train detection. Modularity and flexibility of the hardware and software components are key factors in being able to guarantee optimum operation, even when subject to the most stringent requirements. This means that the presence, speed or direction of an axle can be reliably detected under all climatic, technical and operational conditions.

Meeting the CENELEC standard in accordance with SIL 4, which safety-relevant applications require, can only be achieved if wheel sensors and evaluation boards are perfectly coordinated with one another. That is why these components are offered by Frauscher exclusively in form of combined wheel detection systems. A broad portfolio offers a wide range of combination options to provide a solution that is tailored to individual customer requirements. Following an analysis of the project-specific basic conditions, wheel sensors and evaluation boards are combined accordingly on the basis of experience gained internationally and over many years.

ABB to enable first electric rail link in Tanzania
Tanzania_1280-x-720.jpg

Pioneering rail project will connect Dar es Salaam to neighboring areas and spur economic and social growth

ABB has been selected to supply substation equipment and engineering solutions for a 530-km long high-speed electric line between Dar es Salaam and Makutupora. The project is part of a larger plan to link Tanzania’s port cities with interior areas and neighboring countries to stimulate regional trade and passenger travel in the region and help strengthen the economy.

The equipment will help power two separate but adjoining east-west rail lines – the Dar es Salaam – Morogoro railway line (DSM), and the Morogoro – Makutupora railway line (MDM). The new high-speed electric rail line will replace a slow, narrow-gauge line built more than 100 years ago, which is not suitable for high-speed transport of cargo and passengers.

The project will provide a crucial link between the country’s most important port of Dar es Salaam and the country’s interior hub, which also serves as a vital crossroads for north-south railway linkages. Tanzania, home to well-known game parks and destinations like Mount Kilimanjaro remains largely rural but aspires to become a regional transport hub between its port cities and hinterland areas and neighboring land-locked countries. When complete, the rail system will provide a vital link from the neighboring countries to the global market via Dar es Salaam and will create a development corridor to sustain future growth.

ABB will deliver a complete engineering solution and most of the key products, such as the substation automation control and protection system and ABB AbilityTM OCC (Operational Control Centre). The substation equipment and engineering solution will be delivered to Turkish EPC Yapi Merkezi İnşaat ve Sanayi, and the railway will be operated by the Tanzania Railway Corporation (TRC).

“ABB is pleased to be part of Tanzania’s pioneering effort to build the first modern electric rail infrastructure in East Africa and encourage sustainable mobility in Africa,” said Patrick Fragman, head of the Grid Integration business unit, a part of ABB’s Power Grids division. “ABB provides a wide range of innovative solutions for the rail sector and remains the partner of choice for enabling a stronger, smarter and greener grid.”

In addition to traction power solutions, ABB provides a diverse power portfolio for rail and urban transport solutions including static frequency converter stations, power quality systems, ABB AbilityTM network management systems, energy recuperation and energy storage systems, system studies and dynamic traction power supply simulations based on powerful software tools.

ABB (ABBN: SIX Swiss Ex) is a pioneering technology leader in power grids, electrification products, industrial automation and robotics and motion, serving customers in utilities, industry and transport & infrastructure globally. Continuing a history of innovation spanning more than 130 years, ABB today is writing the future of industrial digitalization with two clear value propositions: bringing electricity from any power plant to any plug and automating industries from natural resources to finished products. As title partner in ABB Formula E, the fully electric international FIA motorsport class, ABB is pushing the boundaries of e-mobility to contribute to a sustainable future. ABB operates in more than 100 countries with about 147,000 employees.

Mbona kila kitu ni mpaka muongelee vya Kenya? Mnababaika Sana,


Kuhusu shambulizi la kigaidi, Historian itakuonyesha kwamba shambulio la Kwanza la kigaidi Kenya lilifanyika 1980, wakenya 20 waliuwawa, shambulizi Hilo lilifanywa na wapalestini waliodai walikua wanalipiza kisasi Kenya Kwa kusaidia Kwa matibabu ya waliojeruhiwa na ndege za Israeli kujaza mafuta kabla kuelekea Entebbe kuokoa waisraeli waliokua wametekwa nyara ... kwahivyo kama ni cha high risk basi tulianza kitambo na Hadi sasa bado tuko mbele yenu
