Full Height and Half Height Platform Screen Door systems - designed, manufactured, and tested in Dhanbad for Dhanbad metro and rail networks.
PSD Operation in 5 Steps
From train arrival to passenger boarding
This is how TRAC's PSD system manages every step automatically at Dhanbad’s metro stations.
Train Approaches
Station system receives train arrival signal from the ATC/signaling system.
PSD Unlocks
PSDs unlock and align with train doors ready for synchronized opening.
Doors Open
Train and platform doors open simultaneously - safe, controlled passenger flow.
Obstacle Check
Sensors confirm no obstruction before doors close - safety always first.
Doors Close
PSDs lock securely - train departs safely and platform is fully secured.
Why PSD Systems Matter
Transit authorities and commuters in Dhanbad gain measurably from a well-installed Platform Screen Door system
Accident Prevention
Eliminates risk of passengers falling or being pushed onto Dhanbad metro tracks - creating a fully secure platform environment 24/7.
Climate & Air Quality Control
TRAC's full-height PSD system helps keep platform air separate from tunnel air - allowing underground metro stations to maintain comfortable temperatures and reduce HVAC costs.
Reduced Delays
Synchronized PSD-train door operation minimizes dwell time at every Dhanbad station, improving overall network punctuality
Reduced Trespassing
Physical barriers prevent unauthorized track access at Dhanbad metro stations, improving safety and reducing liability for operators
Lower Maintenance Costs
PSDs limit dust and debris flow onto tracks - reducing cleaning frequency, equipment wear, and overall maintenance expenses at Dhanbad stations.
Scalable Across Network
TRAC's PSD systems can be expanded to new lines and stations across Dhanbad without overhauling existing infrastructure or signaling systems

Get in TouchFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our Platform Screen Door systems, installation process, safety features, train compatibility, and after-sales support services for Dhanbad metro and rail projects.
What are Platform Screen Doors (PSDs) and why are they important?
Platform Screen Doors are automated barriers installed between the station platform and the train at Dhanbad metro stations. They prevent passengers from accidentally falling onto tracks, block unauthorized access, reduce noise, improve air conditioning efficiency in underground stations, and significantly enhance overall passenger safety.
Are TRAC's PSD systems compatible with all train types?
Yes. TRAC Engineering customizes each PSD system to ensure seamless integration with various train models, ATC/ATP signaling systems, and platform dimensions - making our PSDs compatible with any Dhanbad metro or rail network without disrupting existing infrastructure.
What is the difference between Full Height and Half Height PSD?
Full Height PSDs (up to 2400mm) extend from floor to ceiling and provide complete platform-to-track separation - best suited for underground Dhanbad metro stations requiring climate control and maximum safety. Half Height PSDs (up to 1400mm) are ideal for elevated or open-air platforms where full enclosure is not needed, offering cost-effective safety.
How long does it take to install a complete PSD system?
Installation timelines depend on platform size and complexity. On average, TRAC Engineering completes full PSD deployment within 4 to 8 weeks per Dhanbad station - including system integration, commissioning, safety testing, and operational handover.
What safety features are included in TRAC's PSD systems?
TRAC's PSD systems include infrared obstacle detection sensors, emergency manual override, interlocking mechanisms synchronized with train doors, and power backup for uninterrupted operation - ensuring continuous passenger safety across all Dhanbad metro platforms at all times.
Can PSDs help reduce station maintenance and operating costs?
Yes. TRAC's PSD systems limit dust, debris, and air flow onto the trackbed - reducing cleaning frequency, minimizing equipment wear, lowering HVAC energy consumption, and decreasing overall maintenance expenses for Dhanbad transit authorities.
Does TRAC offer after-sales support and maintenance for PSD systems?
Absolutely. TRAC provides comprehensive Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC), 24/7 remote monitoring, preventive maintenance schedules, software updates, and on-site servicing - ensuring maximum PSD uptime across all Dhanbad deployments throughout the system's lifetime.
