ITT Veam will showcase innovative connector solutions developed
specifically for the challenges in the global rail market.
"We’ve been engineering innovative, reliable solutions in
railway technology for decades, and we remain deeply committed to
solving our customers’ toughest challenges," said Gary Ashurst,
vice president and general manager of ITT’s Connect and Control
Technologies Transport & Industrial Connectors business. "Our
focus has always been centered on protecting people and products in
transit, and we’re excited to show how we’ve continued to advance
our rail interconnect solutions with respect to customization,
high-speed data and environmental sustainability."
Among its many solutions for rail applications, ITT Veam will
showcase the following solutions at APTA EXPO 2017:
- ITT Veam CIR M12 Connectors –
With the ability to transfer data from Ethernet, WTB and MVB in a
single connector, this series meets today’s increasing data
transmission requirements. Installed on the latest generation of
Italy’s high-speed trains, CIR M12 can support an industry-leading
10 Gigabit-per-second Ethernet (up to Class FA ISO/IEC 11801
channel performance). The CIR M12 has a minimized circular
footprint and is fully compliant with the latest rail standards for
fire and smoke. Developed specifically for rail vehicle-to-vehicle
interconnection, CIR M12 connectors deliver optimal sealing in
addition to extreme shock and vibration resistance in the harshest
rail car environments.
- ITT Veam Power Plate – The
compact design of this fully customizable multi-pole high power
interconnection system is ideal for applications where a minimized
footprint is required, such as connection of the railcar to bogies,
traction motors and converters. With an operating voltage up to
1200 V, Power Plate meets the latest smoke and fire rail standards,
and delivers salt spray resistance of up to 500 hours with
conductive plating and 1000 hours with non-conductive plating. ITT
Veam Power Plate was the solution of choice for Alstom when they
needed an interconnect solution that would allow them to provide
sustainable, eco-friendly urban rail service in Rio de Janeiro for
the 2016 Olympics.
- ITT Veam CIR Blue Generation Plating
– ITT Veam CIR Blue Generation RoHS compliant plating delivers
best-in-class durability, conductivity and shielding performance. A
combination of Zinc, Nickel and Chrome III, Blue Generation
delivers salt spray resistance up to 500 hours and offers excellent
conductivity and shielding at the same time. Able to withstand
temperatures between minus 55 degrees C and 125 degrees C, Blue
Generation plating is available on all aluminum-based ITT Veam
connectors, which already meet the mechanical, electrical, fire,
smoke and toxicity requirements of the global rail market.
