Elektrant

The Elektrant1 smart ID-PMT enables user- and consumption-based billing of energy consumption for a user thanks to its RFID access system and electronic active power meter. The data is transmitted to the respective backend system via the integrated LTE antenna.

Thanks to its RFID access system and electronic active power meter, the Elektrant2 smart ID-PMT enables user- and consumption-based billing of energy consumption for two users simultaneously. The data is transmitted to the respective backend system via the integrated LTE antenna.

The Elektrant1+ smart ID-PMT is designed as a DB AG service facility for supplying power to traction/rail vehicles.

The Elektrant1+ smart ID-PMT enables user- and consumption-based billing of energy consumption for a user thanks to its RFID access system and electronic active power meter. The data is transmitted to the respective backend system via the integrated LTE antenna.

The PAULA e-bike charging station offers the option of charging two e-bikes (Bosch or Shimano) directly via the connection cables, depending on the equipment variant. Two additional light electric vehicles (LEVs) can be charged using an external charger with a maximum of 500 W each via the two grounded sockets. The status of the charging connections is indicated by the corresponding LED status indicators (see section on operation). The readiness of the charging station is indicated by the lighting on the roof.

The SEW95 cable distributor is used for weatherproof termination and distribution of signal cables with and without induction protection. With IP65 protection, Photon offers a compact, weatherproof small distributor that provides maximum installation flexibility thanks to its optimized housing. The distributor can be connected in series and encapsulated, with factory-prepared cable entries. Depending on requirements, a wide range of models with or without pre-assembled terminal strips and connection options are available. Various installation options in the track bed, for laying in cable ducts or for wall or tunnel mounting cover all location options. Accessories include entry sleeves, earthing rails, earthing bolts, stacking sets, earthing cables, blind flanges, feet, wall brackets, and wall mounting kits.

Photon LHP track field lighting on railroad track

LHP – the revolution in track field lighting

Illuminated handrails play an important role in track areas, especially in stations or on railway tracks. Photon's low-level track lighting ensures that areas along the tracks are well lit, reducing the risk of accidents. One important issue is light pollution. This refers to excessive or disorderly lighting that illuminates the night sky and can have negative effects on the environment, wildlife, and human health. The consequences of light pollution are manifold: it can disrupt the natural sleep patterns of humans and animals, impair the orientation of nocturnal animals, and even influence plant growth. With Photon's LHP, light is projected precisely and evenly into the area to be illuminated. Unlike conventional light poles, adjacent areas are spared. LEDs are used in the LHP to ensure energy-efficient and long-lasting lighting. Maintenance and cleaning is recommended every two years.
