ASC DiSens® ECO-Rail-3325Accelerometer

Technology:
The digital accelerometers of type ASC DiSens® ECO-Rail comply with the standard EN 50155, Railway applications – Rolling stock – Electronic equipment. They have successfully passed all necessary tests regarding environmental and mechanical-dynamic as well as electromagnetic compatibility requirements.

The sensors are based on proven MEMS technology and capacitive operating principle. The integrated electronic circuitry enables the digital CAN interface and meets galvanic isolation. The devices provide already implemented filter settings enabling a sampling rate of up to 4 kHz at a 3dB-corner frequency of 1 kHz as well as configurable measurement range settings.

Housing:
The accelerometers feature a robust and reliable stainless-steel housing (V2A material number 1.4301) leading to hermetic sealing and protection class IP68. The cable gland VariaPro Rail was tested according fire protection standards DIN EN 45545-2 and 45545-3.

Furthermore, rail certified and integrated cable RADOX TENUIS-TW 600V MM S complies with the technical requirements of EN 50306 (particularly low temperature and high level of oil and fuel resistance). It provides a high level of thermal resistance due to standard fire protection on railway vehicles according to:

• DIN 5510-2
• EN 45545-2
• GOST 31565
• NF F 16-101
• NFPA 130
• UNI CEI 11170-3

Applications:
The application-specific housing of the ASC DiSens® ECO-Rail and qualification according to EN 50155 allows realiable operation in rolling stock railway applications even in harshest environmental conditions. The sensor was developed for the company Track Machines Connected (tmc) to detect the detection of excessive vibrations, thereby ensuring the safe transfer of railroad construction machines, among other things.
