The benefits of Zonegreen’s Depot Personnel Protection System (DPPSTM) are now being experienced by staff at the new $190 million Wulkaraka depot in Australia. Working with Australian partners, Andrew Engineering, Zonegreen are ensuring that the 500-strong workforce are now kept safe in their working environment.
The safety system combines intuitive functionality and road end control panels with graphical interfaces with powered derailers, train detection equipment and warning beacons, all operated via intelligent datakeys.
Wulkuraka is the firm’s first installation through Australian partners, Andrew Engineering, although Zonegreen has exported to the region previously, with earlier editions of DPPS™ installed at depots in Auckland and Wellington, New Zealand for KiwiRail.
