01 · BACKGROUND
Customer Background
Enterprise Type
A Railway Freight Center, responsible for railway freight hub operation management, handling operation organization and warehouse storage services, is a national key transportation infrastructure facilities operator.
Enterprise Scale: [TBD]
Hub Scale
Railway freight centers contain arrival/departure yards, shunting yards, handling operation areas, container yards, cold chain warehouse storage, distribution centers and other multi facilities, distribution system is complex, handling equipment types are multiple, power load is large.
Annual Freight Volume/Facilities Count: [TBD]
Industry Position
National Key Transportation Infrastructure Facilities, need strict compliance with TB/T 《Railway Technical Management Regulations》 and GB 50016 《Building Design Fire Protection Specifications》 and other standards, safe operation and freight continuity requirements are very high.
Compliance Standard: TB/T / GB 50016
02 · CHALLENGES
Business Challenges
Handling equipment has large power, hazard risk is high
Gantry cranes, container cranes, handling machines, transmission belts and other large power equipment frequent start-stop, cable joints and distribution boxes easily overheat, lack of continuous online temperature monitoring means, overheat hazards are hard to warn early.
Distribution system is complex, manual inspection has large blind spots
Freight center distribution rooms, substations, handling equipment control boxes are widely distributed, manual inspection is time-consuming, coverage is limited, some outdoor handling areas affected by operation restrictions are hard to inspect at high frequency, end circuit leakage hazards are hard to detect in time.
Storage facilities fire risk is high, compliance requirements are strict
Cold chain warehouse storage, container yards, distribution centers and other storage facilities involve flammable and explosive goods, once electrical fires occur, consequences are severe, need strict compliance with fire safety requirements, lack online monitoring data to support compliance audits.
7×24h continuous operation, emergency response needs to be sped up
Railway freight operates 7×24 hours uninterruptedly, under emergencies, O&M teams need real-time electrical status data to support emergency decisions, but existing SCADA systems do not cover end distribution circuits, data blind spots affect emergency response efficiency.

Network Topology
Sensing Layer: ESA Electrical Safety Monitoring Alarm Devices are deployed at freight center distribution rooms, main distribution cabinets and substations, ESB Electrical Safety Monitoring Terminals are deployed at handling equipment control boxes and secondary distribution boxes, EST temperature sensors are attached to handling equipment cable joints/busbars/breaker contacts and other key hot spots, ESX Electrical Safety Monitoring Devices are deployed at storage facilities distribution control boxes, covering lighting, monitoring, fire protection and other circuits.
Network Layer: Each sensing terminal connects via RS485 bus (Modbus-RTU protocol) to nearby FG Smart Gateway, FG gateway uploads via railway power grid optical fiber/4G cellular network uplink to freight center O&M management grid network, key nodes support dual-link redundant backup to ensure data transmission reliability.
Platform Layer: Data aggregates to FEXLINK Cloud Platform (private deployment), providing web & mobile visualization dashboard, real-time alarms, history trend analysis, O&M work order dispatch, compliance report auto generation, multi-role permission management and other functions.
Integration Layer: Cloud platform through standard REST API / Modbus TCP protocol, and railway freight center existing SCADA, M&E O&M management system integration, achieve data sharing and linked alarms, unified into O&M work order process.
