CENELEC EN 50126 - The context (1/2) Operation and Maintenance 11 System Acceptance System Acceptance 10 De-commissioning and Disposal 14 Preference Monitoring Preference Monitoring 12 Modification and Retrofit Modification and Retrofit 13 Re-apply Lifecycle  Maintenance is part of the process for signalling applications, with SIL4 safety integrity level.  Phase 11 of the product life cycle is called “Operation and Maintenance”.  Phase 11 ensures the operation, maintenance and logistic support in order to maintain the system compliance to the RAMS requirements. This is the phase where “mobile diagnostic” is required.

4. CENELEC EN 50126 - The context (2/2)  The collection of statistical data regarding functional and RAMS performances before and during the revenue service of the trackside is useful to optimize the maintenance process.  Diagnostic data are evaluated and used for planning the consequent maintenance actions.

Maintenance (could be) quite automatic. Maintenance depending on the Local verification of each balise. Maintenance cannot be automatic. Maintenance depending on the diagnostic subsystem of the supplier at transmission level; at the receiving level it depends on the local verification, for each positioning on the track. Maintenance cannot be completly automatic.

15. Italian experience  Pre-operational phase carried out during 2010  Full operation started in January 2011  Operation Program main outcomes: 6 complete measuring campaigns (six months timeframe) on the Italian Railway Track, about 11.000 Km 80.000+ km of lines inspected 108.000+ eurobalises checked The following information have been kindly provided from Rete Ferroviaria Italiana The service performed by the technological CARONTE allows continuous monitoring of the railway lines and, through the detection of faults, provides indications for corrective maintenance of the equipment of wayside and then for Certification in exercise of the lines. The objective in the medium term is the study of evolution of the physical parameters of the balise before they reach the fault condition in order to contribute maintaining the efficiency of the equipment of wayside system mainly in terms of predictive maintenance.
