The P16800 simplifies the retrofitting of rail vehicles with control systems by safely (SIL2/SIL4) doubling of speed sensor signals for odometry systems.
Knick offers high isolation transducers for voltage and current measurements. The P45000 is the most space-saving high-voltage transducer with SIL 2 for DC voltage measurement on-board of all DC and AC powered trains.
Applications for DC electrical transducers are encountered often within the rail industry for measurement purposes. They are prevalent on both rolling stock and substation equipment dedicated to traction power. Information afforded by voltage and current measurements is often used for control, safety, and data collection.
The requirements placed on railway vehicles have increased significantly in recent years. Products for rolling stock need to ensure a higher level of functional safety than ever before to make the travel experience more comfortable, safer and reliable for the end user – the railway customers. New technologies must be developed to meet future application requirements as well. Based on these points, Knick decided to fundamentally redesign one of its core product groups.
