TENSOREX



For constant restraint of catenary wires and carrier cables in rail transport.
Catenary wires are continuously subjected to temperature-dependent expansion. These are compensated for by tensioning systems and the sag of the wires kept as constant as possible. However, standard wheel tensioners and retensioning gauges take up a lot of space. It's often necessary to build vertical extensions along the mast and to build installation ducts down the sides of tunnels. Advanced: TENSOREX® is a patented automatic tensioning system that takes up much less space than other systems.  It does away with the need for extensions and installation ducts.

Benefits:
  • Constant tension on catenary wires and/or carrier cable due to spring force.
  • Suitable for all temperature ranges and tensioning lengths (see selection table)
  • Minimum storage and maintenance costs
  • Constant force over entire retensioning length
  • High level of response accuracy
  • For all mast shapes
  • Simple installation - low staffing costs
  • Moving parts not accessible - protective cages not needed

    Available as options:
  • Monitoring system which can be controlled remotely
