Direction indicator RS70114

The RS70114 direction indicator uses a white backlit direction arrow to show the direction of travel on escalators and moving walks – on a blue or green background, with the arrow in standard or transverse orientation and optionally with function monitoring. It is designed for installation in round columns with a diameter of 114 mm.

Use at escalators and moving walks

Direction indicators from RLS Wacon show passengers the permitted direction of travel or whether the unit is cleared. The bright, homogeneous LED illumination remains clearly visible even in ambient light; no symbols are visible when de-energised. The curved, replaceable front lens and the wide input voltage range ensure robust continuous operation.

Features

  • direction arrow, background colour selectable (blue or green)
  • arrow in standard or transverse orientation
  • optionally with function monitoring
  • for installation in round columns with a diameter of 114 mm
  • front lens for installation in a 70 mm cut-out, curved and replaceable
  • wide input voltage range
  • robust and durable
  • no symbols visible when de-energised

Optional: function monitoring

On request, this product is available with function monitoring: the device continuously checks its own function and automatically reports a failure – such as a defective LED – via a separate output to a remote diagnostics system or the control room. Faults are detected immediately without an on-site check – this increases the availability of the unit and reduces maintenance effort.

Field of use

The RS70114 direction indicator is used on escalators and moving walks in public transport – for example in railway stations, airports, shopping centres and public buildings. Mounted on the access side of the unit, it shows passengers the cleared direction of travel.

Operating principle

The white backlit direction arrow on a blue or green background is clearly recognisable even from a distance. Depending on the installation situation, the arrow is available in standard or transverse orientation. The homogeneous LED illumination remains high-contrast even in bright ambient light; no symbol is visible when de-energised.

Benefits in use

  • clear signalling of the direction of travel
  • arrow orientation to suit the installation situation (standard or transverse)
  • high contrast and long reading distance
  • low power consumption with homogeneous illumination
  • optional function monitoring for safety-relevant units

Versions

The RS70114 is available in two background colours, two arrow orientations and optionally with function monitoring:

Feature Options
Symbol Direction arrow (white)
Background Blue or green
Arrow direction Standard or transverse
Function monitoring optional (“-check” version)

Installation

The indicator is installed in round columns with a diameter of 114 mm; the curved, replaceable front lens is designed for a 70 mm cut-out. Suitable fastening sets are available depending on the structural situation.

  1. Position the indicator on the access side of the unit and select the arrow orientation (standard/transverse).
  2. Fix the device in the round column using the appropriate fastening set.
  3. Connect the connecting cable (2 × 0.5 mm²) to the supply or control voltage.
  4. Apply the operating voltage and check the display for proper illumination.

Thanks to its wide input voltage range (16 … 36 V) and IP 67 protection, the RS70114 is suitable for robust continuous operation.
