Diesel-powered monorail systems
With more than 40 years experience in installations diesel-powered locomotives and more than 800 installations of our machines we have made an essential contribution to the rationalisation of transport in mining.
Monorails with diesel-powered locomotives are particularly designed for the transport of men and material in branched rail networks with varying gradients. By means of the diesel-powered monorail locomotive even difficult transport problems can be solved.
These diesel-powered monorail locomotives are type-tested and approved by EXAM, for use in explosive atmosphere with a methane content of up to 1.5%.
Product features of diesel-powered monorail locomotives
- 130kW diesel engine with dry-type exhaust gas cooling system
- drives with parallel contact pressure system
- efficient generator for the supply of the intrinsically safe power supply
- electrical starter system
- modular design
- consistent captive guidance of all travelling gears by amply dimensioned lateral guide rollers
