Safe, Reliable Automatic Couplers
Dellner Inc. Booth 7459
Automatic couplers provide automatic connections
for railway vehicles. Dellner’s automatic
couplers include safe and reliable mechanical, pneumatic
connections, as well as electrical connections
between vehicles. Automatic couplers provide an optimized energy absorption solution
for maximum protection of the vehicle and the passengers.
Coupling is carried out at low speed without manual assistance, ensuring maximum
safety for this critical maneuver. It results in a rigid, slack-free and fully latched connection.
With the designed centering and support arrangement, it allows for both horizontal and
vertical track variations.
Uncoupling the mechanism head can be carried out either remotely from the driver’s
cab or at the coupler itself using manual release. Once the vehicles have moved apart, the
couplers are automatically reset, ready to be coupled again.
A New Level of Storage
Dero Booth 1513
Dero has introduced the new and
improved Dero Decker, a two-tiered
bike parking system that is now easier
to install, smoother to operate, and
more aff ordable than ever.
The top tray moves smoothly and
quietly when raising or lowering bikes
with ease. A front wheel safety locking
lever and tray dampers provide
safe lowering of upper trays. And of
course, the Decker accommodates
u-locks for the best security. Dero
is also excited to introduce its fi rst
Fat Bike Tray for the Dero Decker, so
people with bikes with larger tires can
park on these lower trays.
