Railway automation
Prolan Process Control Co. and Prolan Alfa Ltd. have been dealing with railway automation since 1998. Our first large project was the delivery of GYSEV’s integrated railway control system where beside the power supply control (FET) we created the functionality of central traffic control systems (KÖFE, KÖFI), too. The system complies with CENELEC MSZ-EN 50126, 50128, 50129 standards. In 2009 we handed over the remote traffic control system in Szeged region which controls 13 railway stations and supervises 40 stations, in 2011 we finished the modernization of the railway line of South Balaton region. In 2010 we worked on the reconstruction of Sopron-Szentgotthárd line of GYSEV. Our Rolling Stock Department installed Locomotive On-board Computers (LOC) on 1500 diesel and electric traction vehicles and control cars of MÁV group. In 2012 MÁV had our LOC on their newly purchased TRAXX vehicles installed at Bombardier’s factory in Kassel.Railway automation Projects

ELPULTD55
In central traffic control systems provided by Prolan the relay interlocking system operating at train stations can be controlled by traditional electro-mechanical mimic control panels with their pushbuttons, or by the electronic control board (ELPULTD55). The remotely controllable ELPULTD55 device is capable of replacing the traditional electro-mechanical mimic control panel of relay interlocking systems.
Functions of the ELPULTD55 device:
- Safety equipment feedback on an electronic interface
- Handling of operative and special orders
- Logging of traffic and safety equipment events
- Authorization management
- Archiving, archive recovery
- Supervision of the station’s fire and safety alarm system
