Train Collision Avoidance System TCAS-G620 A scalable KAVACH system

Overview

  • TCAS-G620 is a fail-safe, reliable and user-friendly 2x2oo2 architecture-based Train Collision Avoidance System called KAVACH and is also known as Indian Railways Automatic Train Protection System (IRATP).
  • Complies with RDSO specification No. RDSO/SPN/196/2012 Version 3.2.
  • Developed to meet CENELEC SIL-4 standard EN50126, 50128, 50129, 50159 Part A and B and also being processed for ISA certification from M/s Italiar Certifier Italy
  • EMI / EMC tests are being carried out to meet EN61000 and EN55016 standards.
  • Kavach prevents Signal Passing at Danger (SPAD), to control train speed within specified limits, to indicate Movement Authority or/and display Signal Aspect in Loco pilot’s cab and to further reduce the probability of train collisions in block sections and on running lines at stations through certain non-signaling based protections
