Our Fixed Rate Sander systems can be a cost-effective solution where a train has limited life remaining, for freight applications and where a shorter lead time is required. These systems can be installed where there are no existing sanding systems or as a like-for-like replacement.
Fixed rate sanders include:
Standard sand hopper that delivers sand at the drivers request
Optional extras/upgrades
Electric heater to remove moisture from sand for improved delivery and to prevent corrosion
Level sensors to monitor the quantity of sand remaining in the hopper
Filtration and coalescer to remove particles and excess water from the incoming air supply to prevent corrosion and to protect sander pneumatic system
Bespoke hopper to better suit the application e.g larger capacity or where there is a non-standard space envelope.
