RDSO / Spec No.
RDSO/SPN/199/2010
Application
Indian Railways (S&T Sector) & Metro Rail - Railway Signalling Aspects
Product Specifications & Details
The LED Signal Unit for Main Aspect manufactured by General Auto Electric Corporation (GAEC) delivers high-reliability optical signaling for modern railway and metro networks. Designed in accordance with RDSO Specification No. RDSO/SPN/199/2010, this 110V AC-fed unit features a built-in current regulator, a phantom-free multi-array LED layout, and UV-stabilized lenses for harsh outdoor conditions. It is fully compatible with SSI, Relay Interlocking, and Electronic Interlocking (EI) systems, providing a long service life, low power consumption, and fail-safe performance.
Key System Features
- Built-In Regulation: Integrated current regulator for stable illumination across input variations.
- High Visibility: Minimum 600-meter visibility in clear daylight with peak sunrays at rated voltage.
- Fail-Safe Architecture: Phantom-free multi-array design compatible with SSI and Relay Interlocking.
- Lamp Proving Support: Enables lamp proving via Signal Exchange Relay (ECR) or Electronic Interlocking (EI).
- Aspect Options: Available in RED, YELLOW, GREEN, and VIOLET (used in Metro Rail in place of Yellow).
- RDSO Approved & Weatherproof: Approved by RDSO Lucknow with UV-stabilized housing for outdoor reliability.
