Vanes for railway signalling Visual guidance components for illuminated railway signals

NTET railway signalling vanes are components made of Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester Resin (G.F.R.P.), designed for installation on illuminated railway signals.
The function of the vanes is to limit and direct the visibility of the signal, improving correct perception of the light message by the train driver and reducing visual interference coming from non-relevant directions.
The vanes are developed in compliance with RFI railway technical specifications and are suitable for continuous use in outdoor environments.

Technical specifications Railway signalling vanes

Structure and materials

The vanes are manufactured from Glass Fibre Reinforced Polyester Resin (G.F.R.P.), an insulating and high-strength material suitable for use in railway infrastructures. The structure ensures dimensional stability and resistance to atmospheric agents without the need for protective surface treatments.

Functionality

The vanes are designed to direct the visual field of the illuminated railway signal, allowing correct reading of the signal by the train driver and reducing the risk of misinterpretation caused by lights visible from unauthorised directions.

Compliance

NTET vanes are designed and manufactured in compliance with RFI railway technical specifications for signalling components. The product is intended exclusively for use in railway installations.
