Product catalog summary
Overview: This document outlines BLOCK's custom and standard products for railway technology, focusing on robust and proven technology to support railway systems. It highlights the Pro-Connect enclosure design and various inductive components like reactors and transformers.
Pro-Connect Enclosure Design: The Pro-Connect design allows for a combination of different IP-rated areas without additional gaskets, reducing system failures and installation costs. It is highly resistant to harsh conditions such as water, ice, snow, and metal dust, compliant with EN60310, and offers fire protection according to EN45545 HL3.
Inductive Components:
  • Reactors: Various types of reactors are described, including ferrite core input reactors, air core reactors, three-phase sine filter reactors, and EMC filter reactors. These components are designed for natural or forced air cooling and are used to manage voltage sags, limit peak currents, and filter harmonics.
  • Medium Frequency Transformers (MF-Transformers): These transformers are modular and scalable, designed for mounting on heat sinks or container walls. They are prepared for forced air cooling and are used in applications requiring specific power and voltage transformations.
Standards and Compliance: BLOCK ensures product reliability and longevity by adhering to railway standards such as EN 45545-2, EN 50124-1, and EN 60310. This compliance contributes to enhanced safety in railway transportation.
Applications: The document mentions applications like current converters, PCB transformers, isolating transformers, and LED drivers for track field lighting, emphasizing BLOCK's commitment to high-quality power components for signal technology.
