Correvit S-Motion DTI Type 2053 / 2055

Dynamic brake testing and speed verification

The completely non-contact dynamic brake test and speed measurement on rail vehicles is carried out with our Correvit L-Motion optical speed sensors in combination with a DTI-DAQ system. The braking effect is checked by measuring the braking distance in accordance with DIN standards.

Frequent areas of application in rail transport:
  • Checking the braking distance and the deceleration according to BO Strab §36 for trams
  • Independent checking of the speed during vehicle inspections
Advantages
  • Easy to mount on the vehicle with a magnet or suction cup holder
  • Absolute and slip-free speed measurement (as well as measurement of distance and acceleration)
  • Measurements on all relevant surfaces (gravel, asphalt, rail head, concrete, etc.)
  • Allows proof of the braking capacity in accordance with the legal requirements
  • Expandable with general sensors (e.g. vibration, GPS) for all kinds of driving dynamics measurements up to 250 km / h
  • Flexible test software KiCenter included.
  • Measuring and control equipment
  • Machines and apparatus for testing and measuring
