Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 15, 2002

A new roof jumper connector provides a dependable, safe and cost-effective method of making high-current electrical connections between adjacent railway carriages.

A new roof jumper connector, which provides a dependable, safe and cost-effective method of making high-current electrical connections between adjacent railway carriages, Kafon 2000 zero-halogen heavy-duty flexible conduit, and LoHal lightweight flexible conduit are just some of the innovative electrical interconnection products featured on the Icore International stand at Inno Trans 2002 next month in Berlin.

Also on show are a full range of single- and multipole connectors for medium- and high-current applications, along with flexible hose products which are ideal for use with fuel and coolants.

Throughout the exhibition, Icore's experts will be on hand to provide advice on selecting products, many of which can be custom-manufactured to suit the user's exact requirements.

Icore's newly developed roof jumper connectors, which are being shown for the first time this year, are ideal for use in traction current applications at up to 25kV, and for linking lighting and similar circuits along the length of a train.

Fail-safe design, long service life, and versatility are among their key features.

The Kafon 2000 flexible conduit featured on the stand combines excellent mechanical protection with outstanding flexibility and total freedom from halogens.

With an operating temperature range of -55 to +150C it is suitable for all but the most demanding rail applications, and it can be supplied either ready-assembled or for customer assembly using the wide range of Icore fittings.

For applications requiring flexible conduit with an even wider operating temperature range, combined with low fire toxicity, the Icore stand is showcasing LoHal products.

Suitable for use at up to +250C, these products offer the additional benefit of providing a high level of EMC shielding.
