ACDC Track Driver for ACDC Type Track Circuits with Extra Power Output for Difficult to Drive Circuits
The Genesis t-Boss7400 (pronounced tee-boss) ACDC track driver (also known as “Style-C,” “Type-C” or “Ring-10” track driver) provides 10% more output power than conventional ACDC track drivers, and with the XP (extra-power) option, 25% more output power is available. This enables the t-Boss7400 to drive
The t-Boss7400 uses DC battery power from the signal system to generate AC outputs capable of driving four separate track circuits.
unusually long track circuits;
track circuits with poor ballast during wet weather conditions; and
Rail traffic is such that rust and contaminants accumulate on railhead surface between trains (typically less than one or two trains per day)
Features
12V DC Battery Power Input
Four Independent Isolated AC Outputs
LED Status Indicator for Battery Input
LED Status Indicator for Each AC Track Circuit Output
Exceptionally Efficient and Cool Operation
Plug-in I/O Connector
Three-Year Limited Warranty
Benefits
Capable of driving four separate track circuits
XP option provides additional power for track circuits that are long or otherwise difficult to drive
Maintainer can see “at a glance” the status of the battery input power and each track output
Heavy-duty drive electronics and internal surge protection yields greater reliability
Plug-in connector ensures quick and error free hook-up
Easily mounted enclosure takes up minimal space
Meets or exceeds AREMA recommended practices
The t-Boss7400 LED status indicators provide information useful for troubleshooting problems not only with equipment in the bungalow, but also problems with the track circuits or wiring to the circuits. The LED indicators can show if
DC battery power is marginally low or high
a track circuit is shunted or occupied
a track circuit is open (broken rail, faulty bond or broken wire)
a ring-10 diode has failed
a ring-10 diode is installed with incorrect polarity
a track output is not connected
