Tunnels are closed spaces that require emergency lighting to evacuate people in the event of an incident. Monitoring and safety equipment is required in order to guide people out of the tunnel quickly in the event of accidents or fires. Intelligently controlled LED signal systems respond flexibly to accidents and can save lives.
Solution
Intelligent tunnel evacuation
Do you want to optimize the safety of your existing tunnel system or equip a new tunnel with modern safety technology? The Tunnel Evacuation Guidance solution, an intelligent evacuation guidance system, ensures a high level of safety in tunnels.
By using energy-efficient LED lighting technology, the evacuation system is not only economical, but also continues to ensure light in the event of a power failure in the tunnel. The system is quickly and easily parameterized and commissioned via web visualization with a PLCnext Control, the PLC for PLCnext Technology.
For efficient tunnel safety management with predictive maintenance, you have access to real-time data from the system at any time and from anywhere.
Overview of our solution
Your advantages

Connecting dynamic evacuation guidance to tunnel systems saves lives in the event of an emergency. The evacuation control system from Phoenix Contact reacts intelligently and flexibly in the event of accidents. Let us ensure increased tunnel safety together. Design a future-proof emergency system with us, tailor-made for your tunnel project.
Highlights of the solution
Energy-saving LED light strips mounted in a polycarbonate profile on the tunnel wall act as dynamic evacuation guidance in the tunnel. In an emergency, the running light effect of the LED handrail shows road users the shortest route to the emergency exit.
The visibility of the escape route marking is also assured when there is smoke due to a fire. The various versions of the LED light strip allow you to customize it to any tunnel length.
Implement an evacuation system individually tailored to the requirements of your tunnel facility. Whether as a permanently illuminated guide rail or as a system that switches on in an emergency and evacuates persons to the appropriate emergency exits by using the specifications of the tunnel guidance system.
The various versions of the running lights can be adjusted as needed. Depending on the application, we will equip your tunnel system tailored to your needs.
Easily integrate the Tunnel Evacuation Guidance system into your overlaid tunnel guidance system. All important interfaces can be used immediately. The alarm function ensures rapid evacuation in the event of an emergency.
The system status is constantly checked by the intelligently networked and interconnected individual control units in the field. Any errors that occur are immediately detected by the diagnostic function and the information is forwarded to the connected tunnel control system.
Everything from a single source
Phoenix Contact offers you everything from a single source – from planning the emergency system and supplying all components right through to commissioning.
With years of experience in automating and using proven technologies, we also bring your tunnel up to the highest technical standard – for increased availability and safety in the tunnel.
