Frequently asked questions
What types of railway equipment can you supply?
We supply equipment and parts for rolling stock and railway infrastructure: pantographs and current collectors, auxiliary converters and high-voltage switching apparatus, axle counters and wheel sensors, point machines, event recorders, speed sensors, cab displays and brake and coupling components. The range covers locomotives, railcars, trams, metros and industrial railways. For each request, the part is identified by series, code and drawing, not only by name. If you are unsure of the classification, describe the application and we will help narrow down the options.
How do I identify the correct part for an existing railway vehicle?
The reliable starting point is the equipment nameplate, which carries the code, the serial number and often the year of manufacture. If the nameplate is missing or illegible, send the vehicle series, a photograph of the part, the mounting dimensions and the drawing from the maintenance documentation. For safety parts, such as brake distribution valves or point machines, the exact variant also matters, because two models from the same family can behave differently in service. If you have several vehicles of the same series, a single list of parts simplifies quotation and delivery.
Do you supply parts for upgrading older vehicles?
Yes, we can quote parts and assemblies for series in service, provided we receive the code, the drawing or the electrical and mechanical specifications of the part. In upgrades, new equipment must respect the mounting interface, the voltages, the communication with the on-board system and the safety requirements of the vehicle. Any modification of a railway vehicle is discussed with its owner and with the competent railway authority before purchase. Data of this kind do not replace the vehicle's type approval documentation, which remains the owner's responsibility.
Which standards are relevant for railway equipment?
For on-board electronics, EN 50155, EN 50121 and EN 61373 are used, covering temperature, electromagnetic compatibility, shock and vibration. For infrastructure safety functions, the EN 50126, EN 50128 and EN 50129 series apply, with SIL integrity levels. The pantograph–contact line interaction is covered by EN 50367, and the fire behaviour of materials by EN 45545. The exact documentation is requested for each piece of equipment and vehicle type. If you do not have all the documentation to hand, send what you have and we will complete the checklist together before quoting.
What information should a request for quotation contain?
Send the series or type of the vehicle or track section, the code and a photograph of the part's nameplate, the quantity and the required date. For electrical equipment add the supply voltage and current, and for brake or coupling parts the working pressure and the type of system. For train safety, the track diagram and the interface with the interlocking shorten the quotation considerably. With these data, the part can be identified without confusion between similar variants. With clear photographs of the nameplate and of the mounting location, identification usually takes less time.
How long does delivery of railway equipment and parts take?
Delivery takes 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier. Complete assemblies, equipment configured for a vehicle and parts for rare series are brought in to order, as a rule in 1–4 weeks. Depending on the brand and the specifications it may take longer, especially for safety systems that require configuration or additional documentation. The exact lead time is confirmed in the quotation, after the part has been identified. For large or urgent orders, we can propose staged deliveries, depending on the availability of each part.
