Traction brake resistors for trains and trams
Danotherm traction brake resistors are tailored for demanding railway braking applications, helping operators reduce mechanical brake wear and maintenance while improving safety and reliability. Installed on the roof, under the vehicle or in a dedicated compartment, each resistor solution can be specified for project voltage, power, environment, shock and vibration requirements.
Key benefits
- Reduces mechanical brake wear
- Robust steel grid construction
- Natural convection or forced-air cooling
- Designed to customer specifications
- Suitable for roof, underframe or compartment installation
