Point Diagnostic System Sidis W

The Siemens Sidis W Point Diagnostic System is a computer-aided early warning and control system. It consists of converters (detectors), a diagnostic board for each point machine and one or more PCs.

Before a wear-related fault occurs, the Sidis W Point Diagnostic System indicates the current operating status, changes in the status and faults at points.

Sidis W is used with the decentralised electric points of:
electronic,
relay or
electromechanical interlockings.

 

Sidis W benefits
Higher availability of points and thus the route due to early detection and indication of impending faults
Reduced inspection and maintenance outlay, i. e. genuine savings in staff and material resources through status-orientated servicing
No follow-up costs when exchanging points and point blades
Increase of work safety as a result of fewer working hours on the track
Less burden on the environment through economy of lubricants for point maintenance
Reduction in delays
Use of point machine motor as a detector
No detectors required outside the points
Easy retrofitting in existing interlockings (non-interacting connection)
Central data evaluation
Freely extendable due to modular structure
Few system components required
No installation work on track
