MRVC EMU Dash Board Panel
Indian Railways have formed a separate corporation for managing the suburban
railway system of the Mumbai Megapolis i.e the Mumbai Rail Vikas Corporation
(MRVC). This is part of the larger World Bank aided Mumbai Urban Transport
Project (MUTP) which involves overall upgradation of the existing rail and road
transport systems and their effective integration for providing a satisfactory
transport solution for Mumbai.
Based on the above MRVC, RDSO and ICF, had a joint discussions and decided
to incorporate many additional features, one of them was Development of FRP
Drivers Desk also known as Dash Board Panel
ARHAM grab this opportunity to develop and provided the prototype sample
which was again an achievement in the History of ARHAM
FRP Pantograph Lining
In the year 2001 :
Problem: The Pantograph zone of EMU coaches of Central Railway are factory
build insulated by PCP (Poly Chloroprene) Rubber Sheet which often gets
delaminated and needs to be replaced. As the replacement cost includes
complete removal of Pantographs, its accessories and other equipments, the
maintenance cost was too high and a slow & tedious process. Also, due to high
DC voltage, the running EMU develops spark due to friction with the OHE
Wires, which might burn the PCP and can create a mishap
Solution: ARHAM received the Development Order from Central Railway,

Mumbai for FRP Insulation replacing PCP Sheet completely. The Benefits of this
system are
1. No delamination
2. High Insulation value
3. Can have patch up if the required area is opened during maintenance
4. Fire Retardant as per IS standard
5. Increase Productivity
6. Long lasting
7. Zero Maintenance cost
This unique benefit compelled RDSO to replace all PCP with FRP Lining for DC
Sections
FRP D-Cab Lining
Problem: The Roof Top Joints of EMU (Electric Motor Unit) Driver’s Cabin of
Josseph or ICF make coaches were covered with Tar Compound. Due to humid
and hot climate in Summer, the Tar compound gets melted and the joints get
exposed. During monsoon, the water drips from this joints which was difficult
for the Crew and at the same time danger of electrical failure and can cause a
mishap.
Solution: ARHAM, in order to avoid this failure, provided permanent FRP

Coating on the Roof Top Joints, which are less prone to atmospheric conditions.
This coating is Fire Retardant in Nature and with HDT of 110°C.
Composite Trestle Ladder
In the year 2007 :
Problem: The Trestle Ladders were used for maintenance of OHE/Stagger Wire
of Railways Electrification system. As studied earlier, straight wooden sections
used for Height Gage were also used for fabricating Trestle Ladder. It had
almost same problem as with Wooden Height Gage used by TD (Traction Dept).
Also, working continuously for a longer period by maintenance crews found it
difficult due to lesser area of foot rest.
Solution: ARHAM by its expertise had changed the MOC (Material of

Construction) to Fiberglass Composite Trestle Ladder with much improved
properties. Viz:
1. Lighter in dead weight by almost 30-40%

2. Increase in foot step area resulting in higher efficiency of the crew
3. Ease in movement on rail tracks even by a single person
4. Can work 24 x 7 in Live Electrification Sections without any Electrical Cut-
off or Blocks.
Monolithic Ladder - 32 Feet
In the year 2000 :
Problem: As Railways were the major user of wooden and Insulating material
for Sleeper, Insulating material and alike, it was the need of the hour to find a
better substitute due to ban in deforestation. As the TD (Traction Department)
of Mumbai Region worked at an elevated height of 10 mtrs (32 feet) in DC
Sections, the scarcity of Bamboo ladders compelled railways to find another
suitable material to overcome this situation.
Solution: ARHAM were the only organization to develop Fiber Composite

Monolithic Side Rail Wall Support Ladder upto 10mtrs which had much better
electrical and mechanical properties than Bamboo Ladder.
Similarly, they have also constructed Fiber Composite Monolithic 11mtrs
Ladder for Indian Railways
Ladder Trolley
In the year 2009 :
Problem: Since more than a decade, Railways used Aluminum Ladder Trolley
for OHE works in DC section. During these days it was very easy to get blocks
(shutting off electrification) in that area for repairing and/or maintenance due
to lesser traffic as compare to today’s situation. As the technology advances
and increase in numbers of Locals and Outstation trains, Railway lines in
Mumbai were supposed to be too busy, handling the largest network in Indian
Railways. So the reduction in number of blocks was mandatory. In order for
continual electrification, the urge for the material which can work on and off
line was a priority for DC sections.
Solution: ARHAM had replaced Aluminum Trolley with the FRP Trolley bearing
following properties
1. High Insulation values – Can work on-line even in break downs.

2. High Impact Strength
3. Available in different colors as per the user requirement
4. Good Ergonomics
5. Pilfer proof resulting in reduction of maintenance expenditure
ARHAM had also supplied to many Railway Contractors viz:

L&T ECC Division, BSES Ltd. to name a few.
Composite ACP Articulated Ladder
In the year 2006 :
Problem: The working space between the consecutive EMU or Mail Coaches is
not more than 4 feet. Due to increase in traffic in maintenance of rail coaches,
speedy work was the prime concern. The conventional method used Step
ladder or stand on the Buffers for maintenance of ACP (Alarm Chain Pulling)
brakes and other Electrical Equipment which was found tedious and danger of
falling by maintenance crews. Some crews even work with the platform made
up of steel or ply which too was heavy for operations.
Solution: ARHAM carefully studied there requirement and designed a

Detachable Articulated Ladder made up of Composite of FRP and Aluminum. It
consists of two self supported Step Stool, to be placed on either side of the
Coach on which the Platform of approximately 4mtrs in length was placed
between the two coaches. The Railways were contended, by their design as it
was very convenient to work safely and speedily thus saving time and
increasing the productivity. Also shifting of Ladder was quite easy.
Telescopic Trolley
Description :
Manufactured in accordance with ASTME 84 standards
Fabricated from Pultruded sections having High Strength to Weight Ratio
Rungs made up of FRP Fluted Pipe
Highly insulated to work with 33KV & 110KV lines
Corrosion & Ultraviolet resistant
Lesser weight as compared to metal
Can be designed as per Customer's requirements
No resale value
App : Erection & Maintenance OHE Lines
Fiberglass Contact Wire Height Gauge
In the year 2000 :
Problem: Another major problem was unavailability of straight wooden
sections for Height Gage used by TD (Traction Dept) of Indian Railways. Also, it
had a limitation for working during monsoon and in continuous rainfall.
Solution: ARHAM had designed and developed an indigenous Fiber Composite

Height Gage replacing Wooden Height Gage for measurement of OHE/Stagger
Wire. Due to its inherent property of High Electrical Insulation, it can even be
used 24 x 7 in Live Electrification Sections without any Electrical Cut-off or
Blocks. Also, it is much lighter in weight, high impact strength, good
measurement readability, pilfer proof etc. The Credential for the same was
awarded by the Sr.DEE (Senior Divisional Electrical Engineer). TD, Kalyan,
District Thane
Ultra Light Weight Ladder for VIP's
In the year 2005 :
Problem: In Railway car shed where the EMU’s and Mail Coaches are under
maintenance, the conventional ladders made up of wooden or steel sections
were used due to absence of platforms for climbing inside the coach. Due to its
heavy dead weight, more than one person were engaged to just shift the ladder
for climbing inside the coach. As the Railways are shortage of employees, it was
necessary to reduce the man power and fulfill their requirement. Also,
aesthetically it was not pleasant for top Railway Personnels to climb through
this ladders.
Solution: Arham had taken the opportunity to developed the same in

Reinforced Composite material which can be easily lifted by a single person
saving man power, providing good aesthetic, longer life and pleasant climbing
Dustbin Trolley For EMU's
Description :
Collects the Garbage from EMU Coaches directly into the Dustbin
The Dustbin is designed such that the brim is at the level of the EMU
entrance
Easy movement due to lighter weight.
Door at the bottom of the dustbin is provided for removing garbage

without dismantling from trolley.
Also used for climbing in to the EMU Coach.

Automization for Lifting Arrangement of HP Nallah Gate
In the year 2011 :
Problem: The Gates are situated in one of the leading
Petrochemical Industries, M/s. BPCL (Bharat Petroleum
Corporation Ltd.). The Conventional system used only
Chain-Pulley Block for the operation of the Storm gates also
known as Nallah Gates. As the plant is situated near the sea
shore, it acts as a baffle during High tide, At the same time
these gates baffles the oil spillage and crude waste going to
the sea and to protect the interest of the people residing
around the BPCL Premises.
1) The movement of gate was very slow.

Before After 2) During heavy rainfall or flood, it was difficult to operate
the gates even through conventional system due to
heavy water pressure. As a result, the accumulation of
drain water inside the plant can cause a havoc
Solution: ARHAM had sort out all the above shortfall by introducing full proof Automization system for Lifting the Gates and
designed the complete system as per their site conditions as follows
1) New Steel Structure was designed, fabricated and installed without disturbing the old structure.
2) Provision of Winch-gear system for individual gates coupled with Electrical Flameproof system (viz: Motor, Panel etc.)
resulting in rapid movement of gates.
Ultra-Violet Resistant Glass Composites Handrail System
Description :
Arham has under taken the Turnkey Project in MOC
(Main Oil Catcher) plant for Handrail System which
should be Corrosion Resistant and Welding free.
The UVRGC Handrail System provided is the best

substitute to the conventional steel systems. Being light
weight, non -conductive, electronically transparent,
corrosion free and durable, it is an ideal for corrosive

Hydrant Pipe Support System
In the year 2010 :
Problem: Major Industries viz: Petrochemical, Fertilizer,
Chemical Industries etc are prone to corrosion environment
either in the area they are situated and/or its chemical
which are being produced by them. M/s. BPCL (Bharat
Petroleum Corporation Ltd.), one of the leading player of
Petrochemical Industries had to face a similar problem. The
areas like Cooling Tower, Main Oil Catcher Unit and other
plants where safety is the prime concern, painting of Steel
Handrail was frequent, resulting in huge financial losses.
Sometimes due to heavy corrosion, they start producing
dent thus weakening the structure and have no choice but
Before After to replace the same. Replacement requires reconstruction
of civil foundation too, resulting in additional financial loss.
Solution: ARHAM has replaced Steel with UVRGCP (Ultra Violet Resistant Glass Composite Polymer) Handrail, a heavy corrosion
resistance material with following properties
1) Fire Retardant as per IS 6746 standards

2) Zero maintenance – No more painting is required due to its inherent color pigmentation
3) Easy replacement of section if damaged without reconstruction of civil foundation
4) No hot permit is required in Flameproof or Hazardous zone as the handrail panels are factory build

Scum Baffle for Waste Water Treatment
In the year 2003 :
Problem: Asia’s Largest Sewerage & Waste Water
Treatment Facility at Bandra-Kurla Complex, Mumbai was
constructed by M/s. Gammon India Ltd., The project was
under arbitration for one of the reason was Provision of
Floating Scum Baffle in grit chamber. The purpose was to
arrest the floating and organic material from the effluent
pumping station and send the unpolluted water to the sea,
maintaining the dissolved oxygen content as per MPCB
(Maharashtra Pollution Control Board) norms, protect the
living organisms near the sea bed and avoid spreading of
stink. As the MOC (Material of Construction) and its
Operation Scum Collection operation were unclear, it became a difficult task for M/s.
Gammon India Ltd. M/s. Binnie & Partners India Ltd.
(Consultant) and MCGM (Client) to find a suitable product
which could solve this problem.
Solution: ARHAM though were not relevant with this terminology but were confident in providing a solution to the above
problem. After a series of discussion, M/s. Gammon were confident that ARHAM is the only company as compare to other
vendors who can provide a suitable solution to their requirement.
ARHAM goodwill and investment was at stake. But the painstaking work and confidence in them proved success in their design.
It worked as required.
Composite Shaft Rooms for Hotels & Commercial Complex
In the year 2008 :
Problem: The Hotel Industries faces a very serious problem
if situated near coastal area. Many of the high value
equipments and other areas using Mild Steel are prone to
corrosion resulting in deterioration of the existing system. A
similar problem was faced by one of the renowned Five Star
Hotel Industries, M/s. Ramada Palm Groove Ltd., Mumbai
There Shaft rooms (Area between two Suites, Rooms etc)
had small working Platform for maintenance of Water &
Sewage Pipe lines. Even the leakage in pipe lines will
corrode the Platform and the MS Structure beneath it. The
person working on that area may be unknown to such
Before After situation which might result in major mishap.
Solution: ARHAM replaced the Mild Steel Structure and Platform used in that area with the Non-corrosive Reinforced
Composite material taking into consideration the working & maximum load with a safety factor thus eliminating the risk of the
