Description
“Switchgear for rolling stock
The switches of series SD, SE, SDE and SCO have a modular design and can be used for the function disconnect, earthing, disconnect and earthing as well as switching between two circuits (change-over).
The SCO2, SCO3 and SCO4 HV changeover units come in series of 2, 3, and 4 position assemblies. They are manually operated or driven by a linear or geared motor. Multipole and of modular design, they sport up to 10 rotating switching chambers fitted with 8 contacts and one or two knives each.
The rotary scissor switches are designed for off-load adjustment of electrical configurations, especially of multi-system locomotives, but also as reliable HV disconnectors for the power converters and traction motors of electric railway vehicles.”
“Off-load adjustment of electrical configurations to different networks, e.g. various train line voltages in accordance with UIC 550
Suitable for all UIC voltages up to 5 kV DC max.
Inexpensive high-voltage switch for applications requiring high conventional thermal currents
Various control programmes available in accordance with the
requirements of the European railway companies
Simple adaptation of control programme to new requirements.”
