10 Installation of Track Items
This aspect of the installation involves fixing of the Wheel Sensor to the running rail, fixing of the
Blade system and running of the feed delivery hose system
10.1 Wheel Sensor
10.1.1 The Wheel Sensor is a non-contact proximity device that will detect a passing wheel when
correctly set. The unit is pre-assembled on an aluminium mounting plate and needs to be
clamped to the rail 3 to 6 metres upstream from the furthest rail mounted Blade. The
sensor will be in the 4’ and can be on either rail as best suited to the site.

Sensor rail fixing clamps are similar to the EasiBlade arrangement and fitting is generally covered
in Section10.3, key differences are:

Clamp the sensor to the M16 rail clamp studs with the sensor uppermost.

Adjust the height of the sensor to 42 / 45mm below the rail head crown and securely tighten the
M16 fixings.
Note if required by site conditions the sensor can be reversed on the sensor mounting plate such
that the cable exits in the opposite direction.
10.1.2 Run the cable from the sensor along the foot of the rail on the cess or field side, fix to each
rail clip using cable ties and into the trackside Cabinet through the lower mast pivot point
and into the cabinet.
10.1.3 The cable must route through protective pipe when running across the 4’ or 6’, in third rail
applications the cable should pass through robust insulated pipe work below the
conductor rail.
10.1.4 Route the cable within the Cabinet to the Control box. The sensor cable is armoured and
the ends will need to be prepared prior to connection.
10.1.5 Remove the two screw connector strip cover screws and route the sensor cable through
the cable gland and terminate all three cores as indicated
10.1.6 Cable connections are as follows:
Control Box: Wheel Sensor:
Brown: +ve terminal Brown terminal 1
Black: –ve terminal Black terminal 3
White: S terminal White terminal 4
Care should be taken to ensure connections are made correctly, that the terminals are not
over-tightened and damaged.
Note! On very small rails a simple plate with shims are used to mount the Wheel Sensor – see site specific
layout/ install drawings
