The rail transport industry
For more than a century, goods and passengers have been conveyed in rail-mounted vehicles. Population growth in the world's large metropolitan regions has resulted in the rapid expansion of rail traffic around the globe, to now link towns and cities throughout the world. Here, ROSE enclosure systems are used to protect safety- and functionally relevant technology. They are, therefore, an important component in the rail-transport industry.
- Rail vehicles: Rail vehicles and vehicle technology must function safely and reliably at all times. Great demands are made on fire safety, in passenger transportation, in particular. All the components used must be inspected and approved in accordance with the relevant standards, in order to assure maximum safety for passengers and train crews. Sensitive electronic systems – for the propulsion technology, couplings and other electrical systems, for example – must be optimally protected against external factors.
- Infrastructure: Future-orientated rail networks assure passenger mobility and guarantee trouble-free transport of goods. The electronic systems used for transmission of signalling, and all data technology, must be reliably protected against external influences, in order to assure correct function and thus operation. Robust industrial enclosures made by ROSE are used in track-laying on large track-laying and maintenance vehicles, for example, and also in control and instrumentation systems.
