LED Speed Indicator

Microprocessor-controlled, with a display panel that features light-emitting diodes (LED), this Bach-Simpson speed indicator has achieved wide acceptance with railroad crews; while it's dependable accuracy and rugged reliability, make it popular with railroad purchasing and maintenance personnel.

It is fully interchangeable with the electrical connections and mounting brackets of older analog models, making this unit a convenient replacement.

Double diodes in green, mark every five increment, offsetting them from the yellow, single-mile diodes. Other features include separate digital display of speed, acceleration indicator and overspeed warning. Options include multiple speed controlled relay outputs.

Our speed indicators are available as base mount, console mount or center cab mounted units for maximum versatility. Other models include a two-piece system, allowing the control circuitry to be remotely mounted from the display, for limited space applications.
