Whether in a railway station, for control tasks, or inside rail vehicles – our cabling components for the rail industry support flexible use.

Your advantages

  • Flexible use – The appropriate products for all areas of the rail industry
  • Safety due to flame-retardant materials: special selection of materials for plastics in connectors and cables
  • Securely locked, thanks to special vibration brake
  • Resistant to temperature influences: tested for an expanded temperature range and for resistance to temperature shocks
  • Reliable signal transmission: 360° shielding in environments with electromagnetic interference

Railway industry requirements

Our products are developed particularly for the requirements of the railway industry:

  • An important aspect in the selection of the plastics used in the railway industry is their flame-retardant properties.
  • The components used have to be resistant to the strong vibrations that occur during rail transport.
  • Particularly high or low temperatures and temperature shocks also must not affect the electrical function of the components used.
Flame-retardant

Flame-retardant

We meet the exacting demands in terms of fire behavior by using the RADOX® cables and PA 6.6 molding material.

Securely locked

Securely locked

The vibration brake in the form of a wave shape with counterpart prevents the unintentional loosening of the connector in the event of vibrations. The connectors are tested in accordance with EN 50155 for resistance to shock and vibrations.

Temperature-resistant

Temperature-resistant

Our products are intensively tested for an extended temperature range and for resistance to temperature shocks.

 

Cabling solutions suitable for rail

Fast and secure connection

Fast and secure connection

The M12 connectors snap into place quickly and securely with a single click thanks to the push-pull fast locking system. This offers significant advantages, particularly in confined spaces or when the mating connector is difficult to see. Due to the 360° shield connection and high vibration resistance, they can also be used in rail vehicles.

Assembled cables

Assembled cables

The molded connectors in our M12 RAIL series provide a reliable cabling system for all control levels in the train. Choose your cabling from assembled sensor/actuator cables and data cables for communication networks and passenger information systems.

Connectors for assembly

Connectors for assembly

With our M12 connectors for assembly, you can adapt the cabling flexibly to your requirements. In addition to connectors with convenient QUICKON (IDC) connection, we also offer versions with robust crimp and spring connection.

Assembled cables with contact inserts

Assembled cables with contact inserts

Through our service center you can also receive completely assembled cables with EMC or gigabit contact inserts. The 360° shielding enables reliable signal transmission even in EMC-critical applications.

Robust housings and contact inserts

Robust housings and contact inserts

The HEAVYCON HPR and ADVANCE housings are especially suitable for outdoor application. With the conducting surface and IP68/IP69K degrees of protection, you can protect the built-in contact inserts. This ensures shock and vibration-resistant transmission of signals, data, and power.
