In the fast-evolving world of rail transportation, ensuring reliable and durable connections between bogies (the undercarriages on which the rail vehicle's body rests) and vehicle bodies is crucial.
With rail systems being more intricate and demanding than ever, the Twisting and Torsion Connection Cable (Twist-Proof Cable) offers a cutting-edge solution. Designed specifically for rail vehicles, this twist-proof cable excels in applications where mechanical stress, frequent twisting, and exposure to harsh environments are unavoidable.
If you're looking for a cable that is weather-resistant, UV & ozone resistant, and oil-resistant with flame-retardant properties, this twist-proof cable offers exactly what your project needs.
Let’s dive deeper into the features and benefits of this specialized connection cable, why it’s essential for modern rail systems, and how it can enhance the efficiency and longevity of your rail vehicles.
When rail vehicles are in operation, their components are constantly subjected to dynamic movements, whether due to vibrations, turning, or the mechanical forces associated with acceleration and deceleration. The connection points between the bogie and vehicle body are especially vulnerable to twisting, flexing, and other forms of mechanical stress.
Standard cables often fail to withstand these demands, leading to costly breakdowns, delays, and maintenance. That’s where the Twist-Proof Cable comes in.
Twist-Proof Cables are specially designed to:
Withstand constant twisting and torsion stresses.
Maintain electrical performance under challenging conditions.
Offer long-term durability even in extreme environments.
The Twist-Proof Cable is engineered with a wide range of features that make it the ideal choice for rail vehicle connections. Let’s explore some of these features in detail:
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Weather-resistant | Built to endure the toughest outdoor conditions, from harsh winters to hot summers, ensuring reliability and longevity in all climates. |
| UV & Ozone resistant | Protects the cable from damage caused by UV radiation and ozone exposure, common in open environments. |
| Fire performance | Flame retardant and self-extinguishing according to IEC 60332-1-2 + EN 60332-1-2, ensuring safety in case of fire and preventing the spread of flames. |
| Oil resistant | Highly resistant to oils, which is crucial for rail systems that operate in oily or greasy environments, prolonging the life of the cable. |
| Torsion angle: +/- 15° | Specifically designed to handle continuous twisting motions without losing performance, making it perfect for the dynamic nature of bogie-to-body connections. |
| Halogen-free | Complies with IEC 60754-1 + VDE 0482-754-1, meaning no harmful substances are released in case of fire, ensuring environmental safety and compliance with RoHS directives. |
| Temperature range: -50°C to +85°C | Performs reliably in extreme temperatures, from cold winter mornings to scorching summer days, making it ideal for use across all regions. |
The Twisting and Torsion Connection Cable stands out for its superior construction, designed to handle the rigors of rail transportation. Here’s a breakdown of its key components:
Material: Tinned copper strands as per IEC 60228 and VDE 0295, class 6.
Benefit: Tinned copper provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring the cable performs well in moist or high-corrosion environments often encountered in rail operations.
Material: Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE).
Benefit: TPE insulation is highly flexible, durable, and resistant to mechanical stress, ensuring the cable can handle frequent movements without degrading.
Material: Polyurethane (PUR), compliant with EN 50363-10-2 and VDE 0207-363-10-2.
Benefit: The PUR sheath offers exceptional resistance to abrasion, oils, UV radiation, and ozone, making it ideal for outdoor and high-stress applications.
Description: Stranded in layers, ensuring flexibility and minimizing the risk of internal damage during twisting motions.
Benefit: Layered stranding offers superior flexibility, allowing the cable to move freely without placing undue stress on the conductors.
Color: Black (RAL 9005).
Benefit: The black sheath is UV resistant, ensuring it doesn’t degrade or fade when exposed to sunlight over long periods.
Description: Black cores with consecutive numbering according to EN 50334 + VDE 0293-334, with a green-yellow earth wire from 3 cores.
Benefit: Clear identification of cores ensures easy installation and maintenance, reducing downtime.
