Mobatime

Mobatime - Industrial Clock and Time Systems


Mobatime is the leading name worldwide for innovative time display, distribution and synchronization systems. Its equipment and components are developed, manufactured and brought to the market by Moser-Baer.

Mobatime offers industrial clock systems, master and slave clocks, analogue and digital clocks, indoor and outdoor clocks, stand-alone clocks (e.g. clocks synchronized by DCF or GPS) and clocks synchronized by various time codes. Façade clocks of diameters up to 900cm, custom-made design clocks, time and frequency synchronization instruments and NTP timeservers are also among its product range.

Rail clocks and metro time-distribution systems

Mobatime has many years of practical experience and extensive technology appropriate for railway clocks and metro time-distribution systems.

Customized outdoor rail clocks, clock movements and master clocks

For railways, Mobatime has developed specific outdoor clocks, exactly following the relevant customer specification regarding design, modular concept approach, reliability, maintainability, integration into electrical and / or IT infrastructure, etc. Many railways use Mobatime clocks, clock movements and master clocks.

GPS-synchronized master clocks and sub-master clocks

Centralized systems for metro applications usually have a network consisting of a GPS synchronized main master clock, located in the OCC, and a number of sub-master clocks at various train stations. These master clocks then synchronize slave clocks and other IT systems in their environment, in the OCC and stations, whereas the main master clock is connected with all sub-master clocks by means of the FOTS and appropriate protocols (e.g. NTP).

Mobatime can offer a variety of products and components for such applications and provides full customer support with regard to general system approach, depending on BoQ and other customer requirements.

Transmission system for slave clocks and computer-based systems

MOBALine is a two-wire transmission system for maintenance-free self-setting slave clocks and remotely synchronized computer-based systems.

MOBALine sets the time of:

  • Self-setting digital and analogue slave clocks
  • Computer-based systems
  • Relays - switching of remotely located loads such as light, heat, bells, etc.
  • Any system designed to be synchronized by DCF antennas
  • Any system designed to be synchronized by DCF-FSK or IRIG-B codes

Its advantages include data transmission with self-correcting code, two-wire low-voltage cable for data and power, and maintenance-free, centralized time-distribution. It allows new slave clocks to be installed under power.

MOBALine is well-established in many different fields such as railways, subways, airports, industries, administration buildings, hospitals and schools.

Wireless time distribution (WTD) technology

This new dimension of time distribution technology offers:

  • High flexibility for new time systems or the extension of existing clock systems in a convenient way
  • Simple and economic installation, providing essential cost savings
  • High reliability in time synchronization over distances of up to 200m
  • The WTD transmitter can be easily integrated into plastic cable ducts
  • Use of unlimited number of slave clocks within the range of a transmitter

WTD technology is available for a variety of applications. These include low-cost wireless installation for small clock systems in historic buildings under monument protection; simple retrofitting of existing clock systems in schools; and extension of existing wired clock systems in buildings and open-plan offices.
