anything from simple detection and monitoring tasks to detection of driving direction and axle counting.
1.2 Mechanical structure
Electronics of the wheel sensor RSR121 are located in a glass-fiber reinforced plastic housing,
dimensions being 60 x 60 x 230 mm. Wheel sensor RSR180 may be fixed either by web of rail

1.4 Functional principle
Wheel sensor operation is based on the principle of field line deflection. The magnetic field lines of
a transmitter coil, placed concentrically in the wheel sensor housing, flow through the transmitter
coils. In the presence of metallic objects, either above or below of the transmitter coils, magnetic
induction in the transmitter coil will change due to the deflection of the field lines. This effect is used
to detect the wheel flange of a train wheel. Simultaneously, the position of the wheel sensor at the rail
is monitored as the surface of the rail foot below the transmitter coils influences the sensor signal.

1.5 Definition of sensor current
Fig. 4: Definition of sensor current
•
Sensor current level
If the sensor is not influenced by a train wheel or any other metallic object, the sensor current level
is output.
•
Damping range
Damping range is the range between the minimum sensor current and the sensor current level.

or others, for any purpose nor transferred to third
parties without the express written permission of
Frauscher Sensortechnik GmbH
The minimum sensor current depends on rail profile, train wheel material, wheel flange diameter and
lateral wheel tolerance.
•
Drop off detection
If the wheel sensor drops off the rail, both sensor systems will be permanently damped.

1.6 Equivalent circuit diagram
The wheel sensor is supplied with a constant current of 59 mA. The sensor current of each wheel
sensor system is 2,8 ... 4,5 mA.
Fig. 5: Equivalent circuit diagram of a wheel sensor RSR180
1.7 Frequency range of transmitter coil
The transmitter coil in wheel sensor RSR180 uses a frequency of 250 kHz.
In order to avoid mutual interference of 2 wheel sensors, it is absolutely necessary that
during mounting spacing between wheel sensors is at least equal to one space between
sleepers. See under [2].

Frauscher Sensortechnik GmbH
In order to avoid interference of sensors, emissions (for example by vehicle converters) in the vicinity of the sensors within the frequency range of the transmitter coil must
be suppressed.

2. Interface Conditions
2.1 Supply current
Wheel sensor type RSR180 is supplied with a constant current of 59 mA. The influence of the
supply current on the sensor current is shown in fig. 6. Fig. 7 shows the supply voltage as function of
the supply current. Measure series were carried out using a S49, with web of rail mounting usinh the
upper mounting position (= new rail). Both sensor systems were connected to GND using a 500
Ohm measuring shunt. For sensor system 1, the voltage drop was measured at the measuring shunt
and converted into the corresponding current value. The supply voltage of the wheel sensor was
measured undamped.

•
Sensor dropped off: For this measure series, sensor and fixing bolts were dismounted and
placed at about 10 cm from foot of rail.
•
Sensor undamped: Rail mounting. No additional influencies by metallic objects.
•

Supply current [mA]
Fig. 7: Supply voltage as function of supply current
Sensor current of wheel sensor RSR 180 depends on rail profile and mounting position.
Curves shown in fig. 6 and 7 may therefore significantly differ from reality.
The measured voltage values are values from the track site (trackside connection box).
Voltage drops in cables, at measuring shunts or at internal resistance of voltage supply will
have to be considered additionally

2.2 Signalling cable
The wheel sensor features a cable of 5 m length, type 11YMH11YÖ-OZ4x0,75 mm² in compliance
with DIN, with colour-coded wires, that is fixed moulded and additionally mechanically protected
by a mineral oil resistant neoprene tube. The RSR180 cable set is connected to the main cable in the
trackside connection box by means of a screw terminal.
For cabling between wheel sensor and evaluation module, requirements of respective evaluation
module in regard to signalling cables are to be considered during project phase.
So as to ensure almost interference-free signal transmission, star-quad signalling cables are
recommended on principle, such as:
•
•
•
star-quad railway cable in compliance with DB Specification DLK 1.013.109y
signalling cable in compliance with [5]
star-quad railway signalling cable in compliance with [6]
or equivalent cable types.
If a star-quad cable is used, the sensor should be connected as shown
in fig. 8.
If the cable features a shield, there is no need of connecting the shield
at one or both ends.
For the maximum loop resistance of the signalling cable following
data apply:
max. loop resistance at U0 = 15 VDC .................. 25 Ohm
max. loop resistance at U0 = 30 VDC .................. 250 Ohm
