SmartStart® IIe
SmartStart es el sistema automático de arranque/parada del motor de las locomotoras líder en la industria gracias a resultados comprobados en miles de locomotoras. Con un retorno de la inversión (Return on Investment, ROI) de menos de 12 meses, ¡les ahorra a las empresas ferroviarias 1.5 millones de galones de combustible cada mes!

KickStart™
El soporte para baterías KickStart utiliza la tecnología de supercondensador para descargar el amperaje de arranque que se necesita de las baterías a fin de poner en marcha la locomotora. Gracias a ello, los arranques de la locomotora son más confiables y se prolonga la duración de las baterías.

Locomotive Battery Saver System™
El sistema de ahorro de batería para locomotoras cuenta con un contactor que simula un interruptor de cuchilla, el cual se abrirá de forma automática después de un retardo predeterminado. Este sistema previene retardos inoportunos causados por baterías agotadas, y mejora la confiabilidad.

Con un historial demostrado de soluciones comprobadas y un ROI medible, ZTR es la única opción para la confiabilidad en los arranques.

  • Historial demostrado con Tecnología de arranque inteligente
  • ROI directo y medible para su flota
  • Se aplica a prácticamente todo tipo de locomotoras
  • Más de 11,000 sistemas instalados a nivel mundial
  • Opciones de integración para conectividad remota, diagnóstico y presentación de informes
