With our innovations we also optimize railway systems and subsystems in detail. Take signaling equipment, for example: by integrating photovoltaic energy and installing sophisticated, but energy-saving LEDs, we have developed new, environment-friendly LED signal lights. In fact, one of our customers has replaced 12,000 mechanical semaphore signals with these new LED lights.
There are obvious benefits for the operator and the environment. Firstly, these signal lights do not need a separate power supply cable. And, secondly, the propane gas supply previously required for revenue service is no longer needed either. Owing to the high reliability and improved durability of these new systems and components, the operator can now extend maintenance intervals to ten years.
