Questions Clients Ask
What is The FenLock system?
FenLock is an innovative Train/Rail Facility Control solution that assists train operators by reducing workload and increasing safety and efficiency.
What is a train facility?
A train facility is anywhere a train moves out/off a mainline connection on/into a shunting yard, maintenance hub, intermodal, port terminal or indeed anywhere a train might need to travel off the mainline.
Why FenLock System?
FenLock is the Next Generation in train facility control, the new systems can be certified up to CENELEC SIL 4 with advanced capability for all train facilities, making for a reliable, cost-effective, and safe environment, these are available today at a cost comparable to SIL 2 System. The operator can set multiple routes within the facility in just a few seconds increasing the efficiency of train movements in the facility whilst optimising the time to complete the operator’s busy schedules. This is particularly important in areas where timescales are a key performance indicator. An efficient depot saves costs without any compromise to operational safety.
What is CENELEC SIL?
Systems with a high level of risk require a high Safety Integrity Level (SIL). CENELEC SILs range from SIL 1 to SIL 4 where each order of magnitude of risk reduction that is required correlates with an increase in SIL up to the maximum safety integrity of SIL 4. Fenix now provides systems capable of SIL 4 with advanced operational capability at a cost comparable to a system certified up to SIL 2.
