ELPA: Noise insulation system for rail brakes<br />

in freightyards<br />

The Slovenian exhibitor ELPA is presenting a new development for<br />

the first time at <strong>InnoTrans</strong> 2012, consisting of its patented noise insulation<br />

system BREMEX-ANNSYS for rail brakes in freightyards<br />

with sidings. In such areas braking produces high frequency noise,<br />

in some cases exceeding 130 decibels. This new development by<br />

ELPA, which incorporates WONROSTM technology, significantly reduces<br />

these unpleasant screeching noises. The exhibitor points out<br />

that this has previously been a worldwide problem for which no solution<br />

could be found. The synergy between ELPA and Deutsche Bahn<br />

in the course of a pilot project to reduce noise levels at the Nuremberg<br />

freightyard has produced some significant results, with the<br />

noise being almost entirely eliminated at source. According to a report<br />

by the board of DB Netz the results were very successful and<br />

far exceeded expectations. The benefits are also being felt by residents<br />

living around the Nuremberg shunting yards.<br />

ERICO: Theft-deterrent composite cable<br />

Composite cables from ERICO are ideal for railway applications<br />

w<strong>here</strong> copper theft may occur. The CC5A30INS and CC5A30 both<br />

have 157 strands and are suitable for use in substation risers to<br />

connect the grounding grid to substation equipment and structures.<br />

The insulated CC5A30INS can be used on power and grounding<br />

connections to rail tracks The seven-stranded CC5A04 and nineteen-stranded<br />

CC5A05 are electrical equivalents to 16 mm² cable<br />

and are ideal for transmission tower, distribution pole and street-,<br />

bridge- or platform-light grounding. The CC5A04 and CC5A05 have<br />

the same outside cable diameter and are compatible with connectors<br />

and cable lugs designed for use with 42 mm2 copper cable. The<br />

CC5A30 and the cable core of the CC5A30INS have the same outside<br />

diameter as 250 kcmil (equivalent to 120 mm2) copper cable<br />

and are compatible with connectors and cable lugs designed for<br />

use with 250 kcmil/120 mm2 copper cable.<br />
