Rauscher & Stoecklin - Railway Electrification Switches
Rauscher & Stoecklin provides a range of reliable disconnectors, earthing, and load-break switches engineered for railway electrification applications. Their portfolio includes solutions such as disconnectors for visible electrical isolation of catenary sections, load-break switches for managing current under load conditions, and earthing switches to securely earth voltage-free overhead line sections. The switches cater to both DC and AC applications, with DC switches supporting nominal voltages up to 3 kV and currents up to 4,000 A, and AC switches supporting nominal voltages of 15 kV or 25 kV, and currents up to 2,000 A. Additional products include motor drives for remote control, force transmission systems, and auxiliary supply transformers. Designed to function in extreme conditions, these switches ensure operational reliability and longevity, being able to withstand temperatures from -30°C to +40°C, heavy icing, and salty environments. The switches offer a long service life of up to 10,000 cycles, are practically maintenance-free, and can be customized to fit specific project requirements.
