Isolator Refurbishment

In accordance with the Electrical Technical Maintenance Plan:

• Every two years, the Isolating and Rail Connecting Switches should be visually inspected and operated to check the alignment of the Blade with the fixed contacts.
• Every 6-12 months, the contact faces of the fixed contact blocks and the wiping faces of the blade should be cleaned and polished with a soft cloth and the approved contact grease reapplied.

Australian Rail Technology is experience in refurbishing Isolators, in a thorough process:

• An inspection of the switch and stripping of all required parts
• Re-plating and re-tinning of all copper parts
• Replacement of all fasteners and casting parts
• Re-assembly of the switch
• All required tests performed
