Points- Remote Operation

Post by John McC » Mon Jun 09, 2014 1:56 pm

I am having difficulty finding points operating systems which will be reliable in this very inclement weather( pouring as I type)
The run is too long for mechanical wire and tube sytems, and so it really needs to be electrical. I am running Fulgurex, but the limit switches are prone to get wet and dirty, even under cover- so that they constantly need repaired, and the points cannot be moved manually.
Have tried Conrad Electronics, ok in the rain, but they require an AC system and are not powerful enough.
Would appreciate any suggestions.

Compressed Air!
It works under water here.
Brandbright used to do a system, but there are others.
I tried to be patient, but it took too long!
