HIMA Products Sales Argumentation Railway segment

HIMA Philosophie - HIMA Philosophie : - Very long term view - Totally in accordance with the infrastructure railway philosophie - Possibility to deliver the safety PLC during the project life (25/30 Years) - This picture shows how HIMA maintains the products Maintenance Obsolescence Management Figures 2

HIMA Products Advantages for Railway Applications - COTS (Commercial of the shelf): - often used in other industries - proven components - proven communication - possible failures will discover quickly - programmers are available - apportionment of the development costs to a lot of users - No specific components for railway applications, except the adaptation to environmental conditions - standard hardware - standard operating systems - standard programming and debugging

HIMA Products Advantages for Railway Applications - Open standardized interface (Possibility to communicate with the others proprietary signaling sub-system as the ATP subsystem, the CTC subsystem…) - No Vendor Lock dependency, you don´t need the intervention of a HIMA collaborator for the maintenance intervention, because the system is open

HIMA Products Advantages for Railway Applications § Configuration: - central or decentral - redundant or non redundant § Structure: - modular or compact § Programming languages: - Function Block - Sequence Chain - C++-Interface - Structured Text § Validate function blocks or generic programs reduce test costs § Easy integration of field components from different manufacturers

HIMA Products Advantages for the Railway Applications § Environmental conditions - Temperature: - T 1 for almost all HIMatrix-modules available - TX for almost all HIMatrix-modules available (Q 1, 2014) § Shock and vibration (Rolling Stock) - Category 1 Class B according EN 61373 almost all HIMatrixmodules available § Certified up to SIL 4 CENELEC (TUV South) - HIMatrix-System - HIMax-System § Type-Approval of HIMatrix F 30 and F 3 DIO 20/8 (components of the HIMatrix system family) by the German Federal Railway Authority for a SIL 4 CENELEC interlocking project

HIMA Products Advantages for the Railway Applications § Very high diagnostic coverage § Supply voltage and temperature monitored (SW Configuration) § Possibility to reach the “safety state” when the temperature is too high (de-energize to trip concept) or when the power supply is not in the voltage tolerance from the HIMAX/HIMATRIX § Very high detailed diagnostic § Possibility to detect exactly where is the mistake with the name of the board and the name of the channel § Diagnostic information can be send on the operator § Special license for maintenance with reduced price (only the possibility to see the diagnostic without access on the configuration)

HIMA Products Advantages for the Railway Applications § LCC : Life Cycle Cost : § Proof Test every 20 years old § Very little maintenance activities during 25 Years (see the Matrix Maintenance activities, mainly only visual verification) § Add a module with a new OS Base Line will not change the CRC and a requalification is not necessary
