TELOC-E: A NEW ELECTRONIC SPEED AND DISTANCE MEASURING SYSTEM FOR RAILWAYS

The Teloc-E system consists of newly developed instrumentation which can be assembled in modules to give simple tachometer units or complex minicomputers for onboard train applications. Measuring is based on a pulse frequency proportional to the wheel rpm and corrected for changes in diameter. The instrumentation works digitally for the most part and is capable of performing most duties associated with the indication, recording and processing of the distance covered, speed and acceleration.
