For on-board train operation, train control systems require a physical construction capable of withstanding extreme conditions in harsh environments. nVent SCHROFF cabinets, cases and subracks are therefore designed to protect the on-board systems they house with high levels of mechanical stability and resistance to shock, vibration, and fire, according to EN 50155, EN 61373, EN 45545, CENELEC and AREMA.
RAILWAY CERTIFIED PRODUCTS FOR USE ON-BOARD TRAIN
Robust rack solutions with compact packaging. The relentless push to better signaling, modern LTE-R and 5G-M communications and enhanced passenger experience is applicable for new build as well as legacy rolling stock assets. nVent SCHROFF supports with dedicated on-board enclosures for rolling stock train control.
Equipped for Mobile Environments
nVent SCHROFF on-board enclosures are are flexible in dimension and enable design engineers to make the best use of the available space. Outside of the standard solutions, custom solutions are available to better meet application requirements with fast development time, thanks to the variety of modular platform concepts.
