TRANSCRIPT
The BaliseLifeCheck is a preventive balise measurement instrument that can be used on both diagnostic and commercial trains.
While capable of measuring balise, the BaliseLifeCheck is also highly customizable and can be set-up to deliver preventive maintenance to any ‘legacy’ Automatic Train Protection (ATP) balises, regardless if they are fitted or not with ERTMS.
The control of balises is mainly manual and often basic.There are several tools available on the market to help performing balise maintenance, but a vast majority of them follow a corrective approach.
ERTMS Solutions’ BaliseLifeCheck is the only on-board tool able to do predictive maintenance.
Automation of Balise maintenance
The solution
• Compatibility with all balises’ and legacy KER balises (KVB, EBICAB,...)
• Geolocalization of the balises and creation of a cartography• Detection of possible Big Metal Masses on the track that will
affect BTM performances• Computation of a signature on measurements• Auto-marking on all balises matching signature• Generation of a full report after each test journey

The Benefits
The system has been designed to be installed on-board a test or maintenance train which purpose is to analyze test tracks and active lines.
On-board
Preventive/predictive Maintenance
Preventive/predictive maintenance: the system is to be used to test, measure and detect faulty balises that are fully installed on lines already in service, or tracks to be put into service.
Diagnosis
The main goal of the tool is to provide measurements and evidences which assess the correct behavior of balises that are already deployed on the field.
Measurement
It measures key electrical parameters of the up link signal and verifies if they comply with the requirements of Subset-036 in the case of ETCS balises. In this case some measurements/tests are performed against requirements of Subset-085.
