HYDROSTAR^® is a modern combined point operating, locking and detection system. It is used for switches (HYDROSTAR^® ZV) as well as for movable point frogs (HYDROSTAR^® HB).

Thanks to positive locking of the closed switchblade as well as the open one, the system is predestined for the use on high-performance tracks.

Its innovative encapsulated design is the main reason for a massively reduced preventive maintenance effort in the area of turnouts. All variants of HYDROSTAR^® require only one power unit which enables a very convenient integration into the interlocking system. Smaller turnouts with movable point frogs can even be operated with a combined version that runs both turnout components using again only one power unit.

• Compatibility with various interlocking systems
• Easy installation and handling
• Slim-fit design => perfect for installations in tunnels
• Minimal maintenance requirements
• Sealed components
• Low life cycle costs
• Suitability for all turnout types
• Availability for switch assemblies as well as swing nose crossings
• Highest reliability and availability combined with maximum safety
• A system approved according to CENELEC 50126/50129

Maximum Performance. The HYDROSTAR® setting system provides you with optimum efficiency by consistently minimizing life-cycle costs. Its innovative encapsulated design is the main reason for a massively reduced preventive maintenance effort in the area of turnouts. All variants of HYDROSTAR® require only one power unit which enables a very convenient integration into the interlocking system. Smaller turnouts with movable point frogs can even be operated with a combined version that runs both turnout components using again only one power unit HYDROSTAR® is suitable for all turnout geometries and track superstructures. The use of individually tested assemblies and just-in-time delivery to the installation point guarantee maximum availability of your railway track. Fully automated tamping when installing in hollow sleepers also guarantees the highest level of efficiency.
