Rail Traffic Meets Street Technology – Pressure Regulators Introduced to Trains
Aventics increasingly installs pressure regulators for brakes and air spring controls in railway vehicles
(firmenpresse) - ED05 series pressure regulators from Aventics combine control electronics, pressure sensor, and direct drive via a proportional solenoid in a single closed unit. Recently, railway vehicle manufacturers have also discovered the advantages of the product series. They use ED05 valves because they are sturdy, temperature resistant, and available in the long term.
The ED05 pressure regulators were originally developed for use in commercial vehicles. In addition, they have been reliably applied in mobile work machines. Today, manufacturers of railway vehicles also increasingly opt for the use of these components. In trains, the pressure regulators from Aventics reliably control brake cylinders for comfortable braking or are used as air spring control valves for adjusting the access height to any station platform.
With sturdy components made of die-cast aluminum and steel, the ED05 series complies with the fire protection and shock and vibration resistance requirements of the railway industry. Their operating temperature ranges from minus 40°C to plus 70°C. This makes the valves suitable for worldwide application in all climatic zones.
The ED valves process pressure regulation tasks in a decentralized manner without additional parameter adjustment based on the set points of the superordinate train control. They dynamically and precisely control the movement and force without additional control settings. Integrated pneumatic return lines automatically compensate disturbance variables. The intelligent actuators communicate with the superordinate train control either directly via an analog interface or via a bus module. This significantly reduces the construction, assembly and commissioning requirements for the pneumatically controlled functions of the railway vehicle.
Aventics manufactures the ED05 pressure regulators in large quantities, applying the quality standards of the automotive industry. The components will remain available in the long term. This is because Aventics constantly tests and improves the products, offering compatible components even after decades.
