High rail security is a key focus for Southco at InnoTrans this year. The leading global designer and manufacturer of engineered access solutions is looking forward to sharing an exciting new product launch with visitors to their booth in Hall 3.1, Stand 300.
Visitors will be amongst the first to discover Southco’s brand-new range of Southco’s High Security E5 Cam & E3 VISE ACTION® Compression Latches that support the emerging high security needs of the market driven by the transformation of rail into a connected industry and the rising cybersecurity risks associated with this change.
Southco’s new high security access hardware solution combines the proven robustness and vibration- and corrosion resistance of their industry-leading E5 Cam & E3 VISE ACTION® Compression latch range with distinct physical security features such as an anti-drill head style, up to four million key code combinations, visual latch status indicators and key removeable or key retained options.
Southco is recognised in the industry for supplying innovative access hardware solutions that enhance the safety and security of rail travel and operations.
With the evolving needs of rail operators and train manufacturers in mind, Southco will showcase its entire product portfolio of latches, locks, fasteners, hinges and display mounts at InnoTrans and demonstrate how Southco solutions address the challenges of modern rail design and operations to enhance secure panel closure, fire safety, vandalism protection and cyber resilience.
Their full portfolio of Make Safety Visible By Southco™ products will be on display, which feature visual latch indicators to instantly spot unsecured panels from a distance. Since Southco launched this range of rail security products a couple of years ago, it has continuously evolved and now offers a wide selection of visual latch indicator styles as well as a broad choice of latch body materials and head style options.
Fire remains a primary threat to the rail industry and EN 45545-3 compliance is therefore crucial to operational safety. Southco’s E5 Cam, E3 VISE ACTION® Compression and R4 Rotary Latches have been extensively tested against this industry standard and have consistently achieved high fire resistance ratings. At the Southco booth, EN 45545-3 tested products will be clearly marked with E10, E30 and E60 rating stickers, easy for visitors to navigate the extensive choice of fire-resistant access hardware solutions.
