Siplus extreme Rail<br />
Top performance<br />
for railway<br />
transportation<br />
The Siemens portfolio of railway-certified <strong>product</strong>s has<br />
been expanded with the addition of the Siplus extreme<br />
S7-1500 Rail, S7-1200 Rail, and ET 200SP Rail <strong>product</strong> lines.<br />
The devices have extensive certifications and are approved<br />
in accordance with the applicable railway standards,<br />
making them suitable for various automation tasks in the<br />
railway sector – in trains or on the track bed. For rail vehicles<br />
and functional railway areas such as switchyards or<br />
signaling systems in particular, rapid and reliable communication<br />
between all components is essential. Thanks to<br />
the consistent engineering in TIA Portal, project engineers<br />
and suppliers benefit from high engineering efficiency as<br />
well as short commissioning times. The easy expandability<br />
of the I/O modules and plug-and-play maintenance offer<br />
unique advantages for railway operators and subcontractors.<br />
For maintenance, the integrated diagnostic functions<br />
have proven their value.<br />
NEW FEATURES<br />
• Wide range of trainside and trackside applications<br />
• Efficient engineering thanks to integration into TIA Portal<br />
• Industrial Security Level 2 for Rail<br />
• Suitability for temperature ranges TX and T1<br />
Typical applications in trains are HVAC (heating, ventilation,<br />
and air-conditioning) systems, water and light management,<br />
toilet facilities, sandbox systems, and exterior and<br />
interior door control. On the track bed, Siplus extreme Rail<br />
is above all used for switch points, signaling and switchgear<br />
systems, platform doors, and information displays.<br />

Sirius components for railway applications<br />
Compliant with standards<br />
for extreme conditions<br />
The Sirius <strong>product</strong> family for switching technology is<br />
complemented by <strong>product</strong>s developed specifically for the<br />
railway industry. To ensure that the electrical and mechanical<br />
components operate safely and reliably even in this<br />
extreme area of application, they have been designed to<br />
be highly resistant to large temperature fluctuations,<br />
shocks, vibration, electromagnetic interference, and<br />
much more.<br />
Sirius railway components have been developed, tested,<br />
and certified in accordance with current standards and<br />
guidelines, such as DIN, EN, IEC, IEEE, ISO, EAC/GOST, and<br />
ANSI as well as the current fire protection standard EN<br />
45545, and reliably fulfill any requirement in the railway<br />
sector. With these certified components, Siemens actively<br />
supports the international vehicle approval process.<br />

NEW FEATURES<br />
• Contactors from 3 kW (smallest size, S00) to 250 kW<br />
(largest size, S12), which can be directly controlled with a PLC<br />
• Compliance with all relevant international railway standards<br />
(e.g., EN 60077, EN 50212, IEC61373, etc.)<br />
• Usability in a temperature range of –40°C to +70°C and with an<br />
extended voltage range of –30% to +25% of rated voltage<br />
