Overview: The SPL pantograph is designed for tramways and light rail vehicles, offering efficient and reliable current collection. It features a wide working range (600 – 3,880 mm above roof) and a flatness of 400 mm above roof, ensuring high performance with a lightweight and stiff design.
Specifications: The pantograph complies with EN 50126-2/IEC 60494-2 and EN/IEC 61373 standards. It is tested for robustness and reliability in various operational and climatic conditions.
Design and Components: The pantograph consists of four main elements: a steel base frame, lower and upper arms with insulated bearings, a panhead with a leaf spring suspension system, and a drive unit combining a linear actuator with a main spring.
Main Benefits: Key benefits include a unique panhead suspension system for excellent dynamic performance, electric raising and lowering, compact design for retrofit projects, and low maintenance requirements. An Automatic Dropping Device (ADD) is available to limit damage from shocks.
Technical Data: The pantograph supports nominal voltages of 600, 750, and 1,500 VDC, with a maximum running speed of 80 km/h (100 km/h optional). It has a static contact force of 60 - 110 N and a maximum weight of 158 - 200 kg depending on the model.
Operating Conditions: The pantograph operates in temperatures from -25°C to +65°C, at altitudes up to 2,000 meters, and in humidity up to 95% at 40°C. It is designed for outdoor installation on vehicle roofs.
Control and Wiring: The pantograph uses a low voltage connector wiring diagram and includes position detection switches for raised and lowered positions. It operates on a 24 VDC control voltage.
Options: Optional features include a Manual Operations Device (MOD) and an Automatic Dropping Device (ADD) for enhanced safety and functionality.
Ordering Information: Customers can specify options such as maximum standstill current, high voltage interface location, control voltage, color, and additional devices like MOD and ADD.
GENERAL INFORMATION SPL pantograph is the ideal solution for manufacturers and operators of tramways and light rail vehicles, looking for an efficient and reliable current collecting device. With its wide working range (600 – 3,880 mm above roof) and record flatness (400 mm above roof), Sécheron SPL pantograph achieves high performances with constrained weight and great stiffness of design. Its unique panhead suspension system offers SPL pantograph an excellent dynamic behaviour, with great benefits to the contact reliability between the pantograph and overhead lines, as well as to the carbon...
Open the catalog to page 2PRODUCT DESCRIPTION A simple design, made of 4 main elements, guarantees the pantograph reliable operation for operators: 1. The base frame made of a steel welded lightweight profile, enables fixing the pantograph on the vehicle through four insulators. The frame houses all of the other parts (lower and upper arms assembly, damper linear actuator, high and low-voltage electrical interfaces). 2. The lower and upper arms are made of welded thin steel tubes, housing insulated maintenance free bearings. Two unstrained stainless steel rods insure the rigidity. Flexible braids allow safe electrical...
