Rail Safety Systems from Rowe Hankins at Railtex, UK Birmingham NEC, Nov 2-4, 2004

Safety and speed control specialist Rowe Hankins Components returns to Railtex in the UK with a raft of proven products that include refinements and enhancements. Besides design and manufacturing, the company is also the UK distributor for several world-class rail safety system producers such as Eaton Heinemann, LEM and Secheron. They will be exhibiting jointly with voltage measurement specialist LEM in hall 1 on stand 737.

(PRWEB) September 22, 2004 -- Rowe Hankins have ISO 9002 certified design, manufacturing, test and repair facilities. This has enabled them to research and develop new solutions to traction safety problems such as their innovative speed probes, pulse generators and roll back protection systems. Trials are underway for a new wheel flange lubrication system that will enhance safety, reduce damage to wheel sets and tracks while also reducing maintenance requirements.

The company is the UK accredited service centre for Secheron on-train monitoring and recording systems. They are also equipped to undertake mid-life refurbishment of electro mechanical components such as contactors and circuit breakers. This refurbishment facility includes Eaton Heinemann products and those of other manufacturers. Field based commissioning services are another innovation. Rowe Hankins recently commissioned the Shepherds Hill substation as part of the southern zone upgrade in the UK.

Senior technical staff will be on hand throughout the show to demonstrate products and discuss safety and technical issues.
