SSC Automatic Train Protection

SSC Automatic Train Protection

Building Safer Railways

• Developed for Commuter and Suburban rail lines with conventional signaling, it can also be adapted to Light Rails.
• Consists of just two components: the wayside unit and the carborne unit
• Enforces signals, implements positive train control, speed limits and temporary speed restrictions
• SSC wayside encoder can be configured to be ERTMS/ETCS Level-1 compliant. SSC on-board system can be upgraded in order to read Eurobalises according to ERTMS/ETCS standards.
• CENELEC SIL-4 components and functions

• Quick deployment, installation on existing infrastructure is simple, minimal traffic disruption
• Designed with the safety of railway employees and passengers in mind
• No massive retraining of railway staff required
• Dramatic reduction of cabling needed along the line, anti-vandalism solution
• Absence of equipment under the train greatly simplifies the installation procedure
