Derail systems are a key safety feature in rail operations, designed to prevent unauthorized or uncontrolled railcars from entering restricted or hazardous areas. These systems help protect personnel, equipment, and infrastructure from accidents.
The design of a derail system is based on track layout, operating conditions, and safety requirements. Options include portable or permanent mechanical derailers, switch-controlled devices, or wheel stops. Many installations also integrate locking mechanisms, warning signs, and signal connections to enhance visibility and control.
Installation involves securely anchoring derail devices to the track, ensuring proper alignment, and integrating detection or signaling systems where required. Equipment is built with robust materials to withstand heavy use and harsh conditions.
CWI delivers derail systems engineered to meet strict safety standards, with services including inspection, corrosion prevention, and alignment verification to ensure long-term reliability.
These systems provide dependable safeguards for rail yards, fueling sites, and maintenance areas, reducing risk and improving overall safety.
