Knorr Bremse Systems For Commercial Vehicles India Private Limited

These toilets operate on the vacuum principle, with the contents emptied into a disposal tank. Operation is by electro-pneumatic valves controlled by a microprocessor unit.

Advantages:

• reduced air and water requirements
• hygienic and environmentally sound
• highly reliable and economical

The system uses a vacuum generated by a pump, with evacuation taking place at a certain pre-selected train speed and/or when a GPS signal is received.

Advantages:

• simple and practical
• optimum size and weight
• easy retrofit on existing trains
• low operating costs

Knorr-Bremse supplies two types of derailment detectors that enhance the active safety of rail vehicles: an electronic and a pneumatic system, both suitable for installation in a wide variety of vehicle types.

The derailment detector recognizes when an axle has become derailed by registering and evaluating the impact of the wheels on the sleepers. The driver then receives a warning signal or the emergency brake is automatically applied, reducing consequential damage caused by the derailment.

Applications:

• long-distance passenger cars
• metros and urban railways
• multiple units
• transportation of dangerous goods
• freight cars in general

Advantages:

• increased safety for passengers and freight
• reduces damage caused by a derailment
• emits warning signal or immediately applies brakes if an axle is derailed
• easily retro-fitted
• low operating costs
• EDT100 pneumatic derailment detector UIC-approved

Whatever the climate, whatever part of the world you are in, air conditioning, ventilation and heating systems from MERAK have been offering flexible solutions for high-speed trains, coaches, urban and underground trains for almost forty years. And from the very outset, environmental protection has been a priority in all manufacturing, maintenance and disposal processes.

Main Products:

• heating and air-conditioning systems
• static converters for fluorescent lighting
• electronic systems
• protection from compression waves
• charge protection units
• alternative starter compressors

The new oil-free piston compressor combines the advantages of both types, with intrusive noise and vibration levels for passengers reduced to a minimum: innovative technology that offers the same high levels of comfort as a screw compressor.

The Oil-free Compressor will be available in all performance categories from 70 l/min to 3500 l/min. While performance remains the same, the weight has been considerably reduced, energy consumption is much lower, and it operates more economically, efficiently and with less impact on the environment than traditional compressors.

All the processes related to oil lubrication have disappeared: there is no need to top up, change, retrieve or collect oil, and no need to specially dispose of used oil and condensate. Components such as oil filters, oil separators and condensate collectors are things of the past.

Safety and economy are top priorities for all our products - and train doors are no exception. The Knorr-Bremse product portfolio has included door systems since 1997, when we joined forces with the Austria based IFE group, a specialist in the field. Our systems are used on metros, trams and mass transit systems as well as long-distance and high-speed passenger trains.

• Swing and sliding doors.
• Door controls, micro-processor control systems and components.
• Ramps and moveable steps.
  

Platform screen doors are closed glass constructions in underground stations that form a barrier between the platform edge and the track that protects passengers from the moving train and effectively eradicates the danger of anyone falling on to the rails by accident. They also reduce the air turbulence as the train enters or leaves the station by isolating the platform from the tunnel. This makes it possible to heat or air-condition the waiting area much more economically than before. Platform screen doors make underground stations safer, cleaner, quieter and therefore more attractive for the travelling public.

Advantages:

• improved passenger safety
• passenger management
• effective environmental control
• enhanced comfort
• attractive platform environment
• reduced station operation costs

We can supply toilet compartments either in colored plastic or with painted surfaces. Both variants conform to the strictest fire and smoke protection regulations, are equipped with all the necessary auxiliary equipment and meet all comfort standards.

Designed for the specific requirements of rail vehicles, Knorr-Bremse pneumatic or electrical windscreen wiper and washer systems guarantee a clear view ahead at all times.

We can supply systems for every kind of rail vehicle - from trams and metros to locomotives or high-speed trains. Products range from compact systems to one, two or three-arm wipers. And, of course, all of them are exclusively equipped with components tried and tested by Knorr-Bremse.

Advantages:
Knorr-Bremse windscreen wiper and washer systems are virtually maintenance-free and therefore extremely economical to operate. They also take up very little space and minimize interference in the driver's view of the track.

Features:

• variable wiper speed
• various settings for interval wiping
• simultaneous wash/wipe mode
• optional automatic on/off using rain sensors
