Zonegreen Products

Zonegreen’s Depot Personnel Protection System, commonly known as DPPS™, changes fundamentally the way in which the safety of rail depot personnel is achieved and demonstrated. Designed to provide the safest and most efficient method of controlling depot train movements, critical in today’s modern maintenance facilities. An established market leading product, Zonegreen’s SMART DPPS™ is now installed in the vast majority of UK train care depots and at depots worldwide.

Zonegreen’s Depot Manager SCADA software which accompanies the DPPS, provides key information to make operations quicker and easier to implement, ensures safety systems are used at all times and offers comprehensive traceability of operations in the depot. The innovative software provides a complete overview of the depot, on a plasma screen from the supervisor’s office, considerably increasing depot efficiency by monitoring, planning and analysing data.

Designed to increase railway depot and workshop safety and efficiency, the Zonegreen Converter allows the automation and remote operation of manual/ hand points switches and rail road crossings. An intuitive handset that allows the operator to remotely control the points system. It can be either hand portable or cab mounted.

Zonegreen’s unique Powered Derailer has received Network Rail approval. The product represents a leap forward in derailer assembly technology and is thought to be completely unique in the market. It builds on Zonegreen’s previous model, which is used widely on rail tracks across the UK.

Engineers at Zonegreen have applied the concept of interlocking, long familiar in the rail industry, to create increasingly sophisticated systems with the potential to prevent personal injury or costly damage.

As the UK’s leading supplier of personnel protection systems and interlocking solutions, Zonegreen has the skill base and experience to offer a comprehensive range of maintenance contracts to suit your needs.

Providing servicing throughout mainland UK, Zonegreen’s maintenance agreements cover most depot equipment and can be spilt into three broad categories – predictive, preventative and reactive.

The ‘Out of Gauge’ Warning System ensures that there is no gauge obstruction threatened by vehicles leaving the depots such as access panels left open, broken CET fuelling hoses, collision damage etc. The innovative system works by using a low power red laser diode to detect the distance to the side of the vehicle. If the sensor detects any kind of obstructionit will trigger an alert on the outbound visual warning board and illuminate a warning board on the depot exit road.

Zonegreen offers equipment to suit all your safety assurance needs, including Closing Force Monitors, Portable Warning Systems, Manual Derailing systems, Stop/Proceed Boards, driver information and Operator Warning Boards, Warning Beacons and Status Indicators, Depot Protection Warning Klaxons and much more.

The Retractable Catenary has been designed especially for traincare facilities to allow indoor overhead line electrification whilst maintaining the possibility to have unrestricted access to the vehicles roof. The system also ensures a secure electrical connection between the outside conventional catenary and the depot retractable catenary. With this system, it is possible to bring a train into a depot road under its own power, retract the catenary and allow for work to continue unimpeded on the roof space.

GapSafe is an automated safety system for high level train maintenance gantries that will safely close the gap between the train and the edge of the maintenance platform. The innovative system prevents personnel, tools and equipment from dropping between the train and the maintenance platform, eliminating injury to workers and damage to plant and equipment.
