Points Convertor

The Zonegreen Convertor system comprises two parts:

Point Machine Conversion System.

A point machine conversion device is attached to an existing manually-operated switch without compromising the integrity of the existing mechanism. It does not require any civil works or changes in the operating procedures to be installed. Each converter can be used as a stand alone or multiple units can be installed operating together with routing .

Radio Remote Operator's Controller.

An intuitive handset that allows the operator to remotely control the points system. It can be either hand portable or cab mounted. A centralised control system is also available via windows PC interface that offers route planning and visualisation. The Radio Controller can also be used in a route selection mode, whereby one command can operate several points and crossings simultaneously.
