A TRAIN CONTROL MONITORING SYSTEM (TCMS)

LEROY Automation stands out as a leading supplier of Train Control and Monitoring Systems (TCMS). Our TCMS are designed to meet the most stringent safety standards for urban transportation, main lines as well as heavy locomotives.

LEROY Automation goes beyond standard offerings, and provides tailor-made TCMS solutions with built-in features such as train control, on-board network diagnostics, real-time data logging, and remote monitoring. Our solutions integrated hardware and software mechanisms to cyber security requirements and international regulations.

Benefits of LEROY Automation’s TCMS:

• Enhanced Safety: Our TCMS solutions meet rigorous safety standards, up to SIL2, keeping your trains running safely.
• Increased Reliability: Built to endure extreme conditions and tough environments, our TCMS minimize downtime and reduce product life cycle costs.
• Improved Efficiency: Real-time data allows optimized train operations, system availability and boosts traffic management strategies.
  

CARBORNE SIGNALLING SYSTEM (CBTC/ETCS)

As a signalling solution provider, LEROY Automation is involved with Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) for up to GoA4 metro cars and European Train Control Systems (ETCS) for mainlines & locomotives. Our key communication gateway modules, remote I/O management (RIOM) and car-borne control units (CCUs) are key components in on-board control units and system architectures for conventional trains as well as for driverless & automatic train operations (ATO).  We can also offer Juridical Event Recorders (JRU) or Crash-Protected Memory devices (CPM) from our sister company MIOS Elettronica.

Our commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) products can be modified to match all particular requirements, and they can be programmed to implement logical functions and process control algorithms.

Benefits of LEROY Automation’ signalling components:

• Ready-to-use communication protocols: IEC 61375-2-3 Train Real-time Data Protocol with Safety Data Transmission layers, MVB, CANopen, 20mA Current-Loop (NF F 69-010)…
• Safety engineering development skills: EN 50126, EN 50128, EN 50129 and EN 50159 international standards are applied to all our hardware and software safety developments.
• Accelerated Time-to-market: thanks to the use and the reuse of COTS hardware and software components, LEROY Automation supports rolling stock manufacturers and signalling integrators to accelerate “time-to-market”.

TRACTION SUBSYSTEMS

LEROY Automation’s core hardware platforms are ideally suited to on-board train power subsystems such as auxiliary power converters and inverters.

The LEROY platforms are based on CPU technology (micro-processors or micro-controllers) associated to re-configurable FPGA (field programmable gate array) co-processor, which can implement high-speed digital signal processing tasks, real-time Hanning filters or Fourier transforms.

Benefits of LEROY Automation’s traction products:

• High-speed data acquisition: Digital inputs can be pre-processed in the FPGA, each data sample can be time-stamped in real-time to overcome synchronization issues, delays and missing samples.
• Real-time Digital Signal Processing (DSP): Our hybrid hardware platforms feature microprocessor or microcontroller associated to FPGA coprocessors making possible the implementation of real-time signal processing tasks such as Discrete Fourier Transforms (DFT), Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT), Filtering functions and so on.
• Smarter Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC): LEROY’s hardware and software combination can implement process control algorithms using IEC 61131-3 or C/C++ integrated development environments. 
  

POWER SUBSTATION AUTOMATION

LEROY Automation has released a complete Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) product family targeting the automation of electrical power substations for rail electrification and power distribution.

Based on the size-3U rack based “ACS” digital platform and modular “LT” programmable logic controllers, the RTU are compliant with all international communication standards as well as bespoke proprietary communication interfaces. 

Using LEROY Automation’s RTU, original equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and system integrators build better control and monitoring of digital substation automation. As security and interoperability become crucial in energy-related environments, a large number of key features and enhancements are available to accelerate software integration development phases.

Benefits of LEROY Automation’s energy distribution products:

• All-in-one modular remote terminal units (RTUs): Based on a modular concept with power supply modules, central processing units, digital input and output modules, remote terminal units are integrated in 19’’ rackmount solutions to facilitate maintenance and mechanical integration in smart grids and advances power substations.
• Integration of communication protocols : Support for IEC 61850,  DNP 3.0, IEC 60870, MODBUS, WorldFIP, etc.
• IEC 61131-3 STRATON PLC: Fully compatible with Ladder Diagram (LD), Sequential Function Chart (SFC), Functional Block Diagrams (FBD), Structured Text (ST) and Instruction Lists (IL). TLS for IEC61850, IEC60870 and DNP3; IPV6 support on IEC61850; authentication on IEC60870-5-7 are part of advanced communication libraries.
