At FORTEC United Kingdom, we specialise in delivering bespoke power solutions tailored specifically for transport applications, in bus and rail environments.
Our expertise in collaboration with industry leaders like CINCON and AUTRONIC enables us to provide reliable, efficient power solutions that meet the unique electrical requirements of rolling stock.
Applications in Transportation
Power supplies are critical components in modern transportation infrastructure, supporting essential systems such as:
- Passenger Information Systems: Reliable power is crucial for powering displays, communication modules, and sensors that provide real-time information to passengers about train and bus schedules, arrival times, and service updates. Our solutions ensure uninterrupted operation, enhancing passenger experience and satisfaction.
- Speed monitoring and Lubrication Systems: Stable power is vital for the proper functioning of speed monitoring equipment and lubrication systems, which are crucial for the efficient and smooth operation of rolling stock. Our solutions provide a reliable power source, ensuring precise speed monitoring and optimal lubrication. This not only improves vehicle performance and reduces maintenance expenses but also enhances passenger safety
- Train Electric Doors: Electrically operated train doors require stable and efficient power supplies to ensure safe and reliable operation. Our power solutions from CINCON and AUTRONIC provide the necessary voltage and current regulation to support seamless door automation, improving passenger safety and operational efficiency.
Autronic Filter RIA 12: Reliable Power for Legacy Railway Systems
In the fast-evolving world of railway technology, maintaining and upgrading older train systems can be a challenge. The Autronic Filter RIA 12, while no longer a new product, remains a reliable and essential component for legacy railway systems. As some companies phase out their production, we continue to provide these robust filters, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of older trains.
Key Highlights
- 100W Power Output: The Autronic Filter RIA 12 delivers a solid 100W power output, ensuring it can handle the power requirements of older railway systems. This reliability is crucial for maintaining consistent operation in legacy trains.
- Efficiency up to 99%: Despite its age, the Autronic Filter RIA 12 boasts an impressive efficiency of up to 99%. This high efficiency helps minimise energy loss and operational costs, making it a cost-effective solution for older systems.
- Ultra-Wide Input Range: The filter's ultra-wide input range allows it to accommodate various voltage levels, providing versatility and adaptability in different railway environments, particularly useful in older systems with variable power supplies.
- Wide Temperature Range: Designed to function across a wide temperature range, the Autronic Filter RIA 12 ensures reliable performance in the diverse and often extreme climates that railway systems operate in, from freezing winters to scorching summers.
- Hold-Up Time > 10ms: With a hold-up time of over 10ms, the Autronic Filter RIA 12 can maintain its output during brief power interruptions or fluctuations, crucial for the stability of older railway systems.
- RoHS Compliance: Reflecting a commitment to environmental responsibility, the Autronic Filter RIA 12 is RoHS compliant, meaning it restricts the use of hazardous materials, contributing to a safer and more sustainable environment even in older systems.
- EN50155 and RIA12 Standards: Compliance with EN50155 and RIA12 standards ensures that the Autronic Filter RIA 12 meets the stringent requirements for reliability, safety, and performance in railway environments, making it a trusted choice for legacy trains.
- Reverse Polarity Protection: The reverse polarity protection feature prevents damage in case of incorrect connection, which is essential for maintaining the integrity and longevity of older railway systems.
- Integrated EMC Filter: The integrated electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) filter ensures that the Autronic Filter RIA 12 operates smoothly without causing or being affected by electromagnetic interference, crucial for older trains with complex electrical systems.
Key Components for Power Supply Requirements
When selecting power supplies for transportation applications, considerations include:
- Voltage and Current Ratings: Ensuring power supplies match the specific voltage and current requirements of passenger information systems and electric doors is essential for optimal performance and safety.
- Reliability and Redundancy: Robust power supplies with built-in redundancy features ensure continuity of operations, minimizing downtime and disruptions in service.
- Environmental Resilience: Power supplies must withstand harsh environmental conditions typical of outdoor bus stations and railway settings, including temperature variations, humidity, and vibration.
