In rail vehicles of all kinds, critical accelerations pose a threat of danger and damage. Unstable running of the bogie can be detected in time thanks to our acceleration sensors. Our AccTRANS sensor continuously outputs the detected vibrations as an analog current signal. If the tolerable limit is exceeded, preventive braking or temporary speed limitation can be initiated. The dangers of derailing rail vehicles and damage to the vehicle are successfully avoided. Acceleration is a relevant safety factor, especially in local and long-distance rail traffic. To protect people and material, oscillations and vibrations at the bogie of trains and rail vehicles must be constantly checked by means of AccTRANS sensors. Only with continuous monitoring can critical accelerations be detected and damage to the train or a derailment can be prevented. Our AccTRANS sensors are designed to be robust so that they can be mounted outside the vehicle or directly on the bogie. The housing is extremely robust and - like the special cable - withstands extremely harsh environmental conditions. Despite stone chips, dust or weather, the sensor is reliable over its entire service life. Our acceleration sensors protect against derailment through vibration analysis with electronics according to railroad safety standards DIN EN 50155. Advantages of AccTrans accelerometers - Measurement of acceleration transverse to the direction of travel - Mounting directly on the bogie for sufficiently strong coupling with the mechanical components of the train - Reliable measured values as a data basis for evaluation systems and rail automation - Cost savings through optimization of maintenance intervals - Increased efficiency in planning maintenance, reliability and availability of the train fleet
Our sensor modules, consisting of highly developed inertial and gas sensors, offer precise and reliable solutions for a wide range of measurement and analysis requirements in demanding applications.

Convenient solution for the demand of small volumes offered by Micro-Sensor. Within an average 30 years’ service life of a piece of rolling stock safety requirements for rail traffic are changing. Operators must upgrade their fleets with latest sensor technology to ensure safety standards. For this so-called retrofit, often only a small number of sensors is required. Micro-Hybrid offers a convenient solution for this case and also for prototype construction or field tests. They deliver acceleration and rotation rate sensors in small series starting, e.g. 50 pieces. Micro-Sensor also develops reliable and durable sensor solutions for OEM projects with small quantities and act as your international expert in railway applications. With more than 20 years of experience and established technologies, Micro-Sensor is a specialist for inertial sensors in the regular service and develops sensors to be used in applications in harsh environments like heat, sand and a lot more. The production processes allow manufacturing of even small series. The sensors are produced modularly and adapt all necessary steps to the individual customer requirements. This decisive advantage is enabled by the deep value chain (PCB assembly, packaging, calibration) and the broad technological expertise in the corporate group of Micro-Hybrid and Micro-Epsilon.
