Overhaul/Upgrade

Glova Rail has specialized in a complete system support of sanitary systems for railway vehicles. Glova can offer toilet units, central effluent tanks (CET), a water tank overhaul, and, when found necessary, a system upgrade, to increase the service life of the system.

Overhaul

Service Importance
Optimally, the train operator can ensure the lowest correct cost of a system’s lifetime by allowing long but accurately timed intervals between the services of his equipment. Moreover, the operator aims to facilitate the upkeep of reliable equipment, as non-performing equipment has a direct impact on the comfort of the passenger.

There are several vacuum toilet brands on the market, and, although they may be working slightly differently, they are all suffering from the permanent contact with sewage water. Sewage water is tremendously corrosive, and it is contaminated with particles, which build up in the system over time and slowly causes the system to fail. As a result, no matter how resilient your system is, time and continues contact with sewage water will have an impact on the performance of the system.

Very often, the combination of these two factors forces the system to fail long before the typical overhaul interval, which is defined in millions of kilometres, is reached. To ensure the equipment’s reliability, it is highly recommendable to monitor the actual performance of the equipment, and, in the case of any discovered weaknesses, to exchange it with a spare prior to its failure to function.

Semvac
Glova Rail has great expertise in the maintaining of classic Semvac 820 systems, Semlet units, and the Semvac Mini units. Glova Rail has extensive knowledge on the Semvac equipment and has the capacity to either supply spares or rebuild the old Semvac systems with new Glova technology, which ensures the bettering of the system’s overall performance. By reengineering key components on these systems, it has not only been possible to enhance and elevate them to the current expected standard of such systems, but also increase their reliability without needing to substitute the whole unit.

EVAC
Throughout the last three decades, Evac has supplied thousands of vacuum toilet system and sanitary solutions all over the world, under different ownerships. Whether it is the standard Evac sluice systems, the Evac 2000 systems, or the traditional Evac compact units, Glova can offer service, overhaul, and upgrade of the system.

Upgrade

Frensistimi upgrade
We have experience with the upgrade of Knorr Bremse´s Frensistimi toilets using our own, more reliable vacuum toilet components and control systems, thereby extending their service life and improving their performance.

Temoinsa Upgrade
Whether it is a question of permanent vacuum systems or compact units, the Temoinsa systems are known to for their robust design based on heavy steel constructions. However, many Temoinsa units have found to have several shortcomings in key components such as the DV1 valve, the ejector, or the control parts. Glova Rail has overcome those weaknesses by the successful implementing of alternative components that significantly improve the reliability of the systems. Glova Rail always strive to reengineer, upgrade and service any type of system, which our costumer should prefer.

Control Panel Upgrade
Occasionally, a supplier is unable to supply spare parts for their vacuum toilet systems’ control panels. In these cases, Glova Rail can increase the unit’s service life by both upgrading and updating the panel to modern technology.
