These individual simulators are portable, battery operated, stand-alone items of test equipment that can simulate the operation of different types of point operating equipment under normal and fault conditions. Each type of simulator uses Normal and Reverse terminology for switch contacts and valve drives where applicable.
These individual simulators do not require routine calibration and are for use to simulate the operation of different types of point operating equipment during pre-commissioning testing of point controls and indications.
Please note that any testing using these simulators does not remove the requirement for full testing and commissioning of the complete point operating system to an authorised plan and procedure.
The Certificate of Acceptance reference is PA05/02981.
The team at Park Signalling are currently developing a number of other simulators for various applications including Solid State Interlocking. If your organisation has a specific requirement for simulators, please contact us at sales@park-signalling.co.uk.
