La Farga Lacambra: Wear-resistant copper wire<br />

EVELEC is a special copper wire made by La Farga Lacambra using<br />

micro-alloys. These improve wear resistance by between 30 and 50<br />

per cent compared with the standard products used on conventional<br />

rail routes. In addition to reducing wear and tear on installations<br />

they also offer the benefits of superior mechanical performance<br />

and very good electrical conductivity. Furthermore EVELEC offers<br />

a much higher annealing temperature than ETP copper and, depending<br />

on the micro-alloy, superior temperature characteristics to<br />

CuAg 0.1. This produces outstanding thermal stability, reduced distortion<br />

and increased durability. In a comparison with copper-silver<br />

it is clear that EVELEC is ideally suited for use on high speed<br />

lines, according to the exhibitor. EVELEC contains 99.93 copper.<br />

Consequently the conductivity of the wire is not significantly affected<br />

and in fact its mechanical properties are substantially improved.<br />

LEM Deutschland: Component suite with on-board energy<br />

meter function<br />

The latest EM4TII energy meter from LEM is based on the 0.5R ITC<br />

class which, in addition to the 4,000 ampere version, is now available<br />

for the 1,000 and 2,000 ampere range, and on the DV current converter.<br />

The manufacturer reports that this is currently the only suite of<br />

components with an on-board energy meter function for DC and AC<br />

rail networks that is fully compatible with prEN50463. LEM products<br />

can help to accurately meet the demand for new functions such as<br />

the on-board monitoring of current consumption. At <strong>InnoTrans</strong> 2012<br />

this exhibitor is demonstrating to rail industry engineers whose work<br />

involves rail vehicles as well as sub-stations that a new, versatile<br />

energy conserving solution can cut consumption by 30 per cent. It<br />

can be deployed for measuring network voltages as well as for the<br />

main converter-DC connection on board trains. Through the integration<br />

of tried and tested, patented insulation technology from LEM this<br />

voltage converter can offer flexible mechanical properties and a high<br />

level of performance.<br />
