Track occupancy detector with Relay


For reliable indication of stationary and driving trains on the track and for use as an
electronic switch.


Operation
The occupation detector reports any driving current above and including 1mA in the isolated
section which it monitors. It reacts this way to stationary and driving locomotives and cars with
lighting. It is possible with connected lamps of all types, LEDs, relays, switches and signals
with current switching of high output current of up to 1 A, or other components, e.g. sound
modules.

The integrated relay with two floating change-over contacts, which may be loaded with 1A,
permits many switching possibilities without additional components.
Apart from use for reliable reporting on the track plan desk, the occupation detector is suitable
for the triggering switching sequences, timers or other components - and all this without visible
logic elements in the track.

When using lit end cars the device also reliably reports uncoupled railroad cars. Any other car
is detected if the isolation of the axles is bridged with graphite or resistance lacquer.


Fuse

The device can tolerate a continuous driving current of 1.5A and is normally protected by the controlling equipment,e.g. Transformer or speed controller with overload protection. Should this not be the case should on your layout we recommend the installation of a 1.25mAmT micro fuse.


Compatibility

The GBM can be installed with continuously lit trains and digital systems, as well as with all kinds of control desks and electronic components.

ESTABLISHED IN 2005

The idea of Digitrains was conceived over the dinner table and grew very slowly as doubts calmed missionary zeal. We finally took the plunge in January 2005 and are fortunate to be dealers for some of the best and most user friendly DCC equipment available.
