Business profile
major part of Pei tel’s home market is the design and supply of microphones to Germany’s equivalent of the London Underground.
Before every train departs from Berlin station, the conductor has to unlock the doors, open the doors and then ascertain that passengers are clear before the doors are closed and the next stop is announced. As this is all controlled by a handheld microphone and the driver has to exit or lean out of his cab, this means the microphone is ‘open’ to all the weather conditions and because of this, systems have failed due to water or snow ingress. To help solve this, Pei tel developed a push-button handheld microphone, robust enough to withstand driver handling and general rugged use but that critically, is able to prevent the ingress of water.
The DD113 handheld microphone – with protection class IP6K8 – is dustproof and waterproof against continuous immersion in water and has also passed the IE 60529; 1989 + a1:1999 tests. The three-button dynamic handheld microphone has a rugged chrome housing, six-wire halogen-free PEIGUM spiral cable, two shielded wires and a maximum connector-free draw length of 2.5m. A single-button version is also available. Developed to solve a rail application problem, it can also be used in other situations such as when a fireman in charge of the water pump needs radio contact with colleagues. The robustness of the design, alongside its excellent voice transmission, allows it to be used with the ambulance service and other emergency services.
The product is easy to use, multi- functional and suitable for PA systems within mobile and fixed applications.
Provertha interconnection solutions Provertha is a Quadrant franchise that produces innovative interconnection solutions for railway and transportation technology. It comprises D-sub connectors, full metal Quick Mount D-sub hoods and M12 Ethernet
connectors for field assembly as well as M12 Ethernet patch cables. Fully shielded DIN rail adapters, e.g for service interfaces, full metal D-sub DIN rail distribution boxes as well as 360 degrees EMI/RFI shielded M12 T and Y pieces. In transportation and railway applications there is a need for simple and secure field assembly, high mechanical stability, protection against moisture and dirt (IP67) plus excellent EMI/RFI requirements.
Clients in these industries also demand reliable signal line terminations, efficient shielding and optimised strain relief, combined with simple and fast assembly and space saving techniques.
Provertha covers these requirements with its range of products for the railway system, including its IP67 D-code 4 pin and A-code 5 & 8 pins M12 crimp cable connector. The connector has a fast and reliable IE connection and is ideal for applications which require a robust connector for special railway cables. It contains few parts and features a simple snap-in insertion of contacts. It also provides a simple and secure assembly for railway applications with 6.6mm, 7.25mm and 8.3mm diameter cable types. There is a version for the standard PROFINET cable in industrial automation systems. Due to its compact design – just 16mm total diameter for a field assembly solution – the new connector fits applications with restricted mounting conditions. As well as that, there is a compact field-mounted rear panel crimp cable connection in the female version.
