At its new plant in Salt Lake City, Stadler is building a total of 19 seven-car electric double-decker multiple-unit trains of the KISS type for the American railway company, Caltrain.
Selectron is supplying the TCMS for the vehicles, which is being produced in the USA in accordance with the Buy America Act (BAA).
Since March 2019, the Istanbul T5 line along the Golden Horn between Eminönü and Alibeyköy Cep Otogari is operated with new trams designed and manufactured by DURMAZLAR in Turkey. Selectron’s compact TCMS controls the vehicles – achieving ultimate availability.
The MAS 73x/83x node module portfolio is being rounded off with MVB (Multifunctional Vehicle Bus) variants. Two voltage variants are available for each of the two media, ESD+ (Electrical Short Distance) and EMD (Electrical Middle Distance). Together with the MVB1131 V3 configuration tool, they enable the smooth integration of an MVB node into the Selectron TCMS.
As part of the product portfolio expansion, the MAS 73x/83x product family has been extended to include an analog input module for safety-related applications. Development of the AIT 735-T/I/SIL is almost complete and will soon be certified for SIL 2.
The tried-and-tested CPU 733-TG with CAN and MVB connection has been refreshed and – in addition to having rotary switches that are easier to read – it has also been adapted to comply with the latest standards.
The latest version of the MOS83x operating system for the SIL 2 control platform with AIT 735-T/I/SIL support is on its way.
As the world's leading provider, Selectron has positioned itself to deliver cyber security for the rail vehicle industry – protecting both existing and future rail systems against cyber threats.
Selectron successfully presents new products in Turkey.
Selectron can supply the controller for the sanitary block in the largest modernization project in the history of SBB for long-haul traffic. Digital and analog inputs and outputs had to be provided in a compact controller within the smallest possible amount of space. The sanitary block controller is equipped with an optical MVB interface in order to leave communication with the existing control technology unchanged.
In addition to the hardware, Selectron has also developed the application software.
On January 23, 2019, the Wenzhou Rail Transit Line S1 was officially put into operation – it is the first batch of new urban railway demonstration projects in China.
The TCMS equipment for the Urban EMU is supplied by Selectron.
Selectron is expanding its portfolio of components with integration capability. Controller solutions (ICC) are now being followed by interface modules with integration capability. As the first module, the Class 2 "Integrated MVB Core" IMC 201-T is about to be completed. Class 4 for bus administrator applications, as well as WTB solutions based on the same "System on Module" (SOM) are planned.
Selectron completes the MAS 73x/83x controller family with Ethernet node modules. The new DDEs are available both as a non-safety-oriented variant DDE 731-Tx and as a safety-oriented variant DDE 735-Tx/SIL.
The Selectron Toolchain now works hand in hand with the leading mathematics and modeling suite, MATLAB/Simulink.
Over the years, Selectron Systems AG has developed a LabVIEW library for internal test systems that allows easy access from LabVIEW to the MAS controllers.
The LabVIEW library is now available together with the SysComPC_SDK.
