system and other equipment to the nearest terminal block, the internal cable connection of the locomotive. Custom production takes place at the LAPP facility in
Otrokovice. This is the production of the
CABLE IRCK cable harness to customer
specification. This harness contains multicore shielded cables with corresponding
fire resistance according to EN 45545, intended for signal transmission. The cables
are fitted with cable lugs and sockets at
The company's main product in the area
of security systems is the MIREL VZ1 train
protection system, which is currently in
operation on lines in Slovakia, the Czech
Republic, Hungary and Poland. The extension module of the MIREL VZ1 train
protection system is the MIREL STB functional gateway, which includes the
ÖLFLEX® CONNECT cable assembly from
LAPP.
The MIREL train protection system is intended for monitoring driver vigilance,
the transmission of information from
trackside to the signal repeater, the monitoring of maximum speed with regard to
the maximum design speed of the traction
unit, determining the speed of the train
unit, and receiving information from the
track infrastructure. The basic function of
the MIREL STB gateway is to provide an
interface between the basic unit of the
MIREL VZ1 train protection system and
the ETCS on-board device, the European
train protection system.
LAPP supplies the cable assembly used
to connect the MIREL VZ1 train protection
the ends. The product also includes cable
glands and D-SUB connectors. The finished product is completely ready for
mounting on the MIREL system without
the need for further modifications.
