Certifying that all the wagons are properly coupled

A freight train can have hundreds of wagons and

kilometres of length. So, ensuring the train
integrity of such extensive compositions is a
complex task but crucial when it comes to
security.

Than, for certifying the integrity of trains and

address fundamental information ART designed its
End of Train (EOT) device , a equipment that must
be installed on the last wagon.

The EOT device provides the following

functionalities
Equipment with low
• Train integrity monitoring
energy use
• Break pipe pressure monitoring
• Emergency braking application from the last wagon EOT’s electronic circuit and battery are
• Train size accuracy measurement powered by a small air amount from the
general train pipe. This eliminates
• Last wagon movement information
downtime and delays due to battery
• GPS and GPRS tracking information discharge, enabling longer trips
without recharging.
Plastic EOT

EOT communicates via UHF, with the Communication Module and the
Locomotive Cab Unit. Both equipment complies with the American Association
of Railroads (ARR) for train device.
