Railway Turnout Fault Determination Method

Edit:Zongxiang Heavy Industry--Lucas Date:2020-01-02 11:25:09

Most people have traveled by train, but how much do you know about the railway connection equipment? For example, railway turnout, which is a kind of line connecting equipment for rolling stock to move from one track to another, is usually laid in large quantities in stations and marshalling yards, and is also one of the weak links of the track. Therefore, it is a common occurrence for railway turnouts to have faults. We will briefly introduce several performances for judging rail turnout faults.

The first type: if the switch can be operated in both fixed and reversed positions, then there is no indication.  After testing with a multimeter, if there is voltage, it is an outdoor fault, otherwise it is an indoor fault. railway turnout suppliers

The second type: if it is a single-action switch, the ammeter on the console has an indication during operation, indicating that the electricity of the action switch has been sent to the switch.  If the switch cannot be moved to the specified position at this time, this is the outdoor reason. railway turnout suppliers

The third type: if it is a double-action switch, the ammeter on the console will not move once it is operated, which indicates that the electricity of the action switch has been sent to the moving switch, and the failure occurs after the moving switch, which is an outdoor failure. railway turnout suppliers

We hope that after you know the above rail turnout failure performance, you can step up the inspection of turnout and find and solve the turnout failure in time to ensure the safe running of the train.
