Drive System

The drive system is a GTA210-50 mounted on a detachable mounting plate for fast exchange if required.

Safety Devices

When a train approaches the crossing, an audible alarm is located in the drive mechanism sounds, followed by the closing of the gate, to prevent access across the tracks, while exposing the emergency exit. After the passage of the train, the alarm stops and the gate opens under power, once again exposing the walkway permitting access across the tracks and at the same time closing off the emergency exit.

Technology

The Magnetic torque drive has a protective indexing clutch and shock absorbing springs built in to prevent internal damage in case the gate is forced against its motion during its operation. The torque motor can be stalled in any position without overheating or suffering any damage. Torque motors always produce a certain degree of heat so that there is no risk of freezing or condensation - even in cold climatic conditions.
