DATUM Monitoring were the stars of the show at Rail Live – thanks to two very special MATES.
The RailtempMATE and VoidMATE were the stand out attractions at this years event, the largest UK showpiece for the rail industry.
RailtempMATE is a product designed by DATUM Monitoring to provide 24/7 365-days-a-year monitoring of rail track temperature.
VoidMATE is one of the latest additions to the DATUM armoury providing 24/7 365-days-a-year monitoring of track voids.
Alerts
Both send real-time data to clients via their smart phone, tablet or desktop including crucial alerts to potential dangers.
DATUM CEO Rory O’Rourke, said: “We are particularly proud of both the RailtempMATE and VoidMATE.
“They provide clients with the opportunity to view real-time data and around the clock and have obviously safety benefits, given they remove the need for manual readings.
“Previously to measure track temperature or to assess whether ballast had moved the process involved physically sending two employees to the area of concern.
“This was a costly, labour intensive process and potentially hazardous whilst always being susceptible to human area. The RailtempMATE and VoidMATE remove those concerns.
“DATUM Monitoring can monitor on behalf of clients and send warnings when track temperatures or voiding reach particular levels or the clients can do it themselves using our unique software package Platform Interactive.”
Rail Live is the UK’s largest exhibition for the rail industry. The two-day event showcases everything from rail plant and infrastructure, traction & rolling stock.
