Passenger coaches

Batteries are used on conventional train passenger coaches to provide a reliable emergency power supply in case of failure of the main power supply. In older type of coaches they may come into operation not only for emergency purposes, but also whenever the train is at a standstill. These batteries maintain lighting, ventilation, air-conditioning, switching & transmission systems as well as emergency braking and anti-skid systems.

For this application, Saft offers the following solutions:

Ferak KPM, KPL

Ferak KPL LM

Saft sintered / PBE SRM, MRX

Saft pocket-plate SBL, SBM , SCM-S

Metros

For metros and rapid suburban transit networks, batteries must be able supply power for up to one hour for emergency lighting and air conditioning, computing systems, and the opening of automatic doors. In addition radio communication from the driver's cab to the control unit must also be maintained.
