The FM5-25 contact wire measuring device is specially designed for static point measurement of contact wires. The laser beam of the FM5 determines the position of the catenary in relation to the track center as well as from the top of the rail.
This enables you to measure quickly and easily the:
- Contact wire height and stagger (zig-zag)
- Messenger wire height and stagger
- Distance between pole leading edge and track center
- Bridge and tunnel heights, height of crossing power lines
- With accessories: superelevation (tilt)
Applications
- Planning, calculation and construction of overhead line systems
- Regulatory and maintenance tasks on catenary and contact lines
- Calibration and control and of continuous, dynamic geometry measurement methods
- Optimized for mobile use in light and long-distance rail
Designed for construction site environments
- Automatically illuminated high-resolution color display
- Camera image with digital viewfinder and 4x zoom
- Non-contact laser distance measurement with visible red laser dot on the target surface
- Single measurement or continuous measurement as a supporting search function and for differentiating distances
- Integrated brake for fixing the measuring device on the measuring rail
- Sealed against dust and rainwater
- Minimal personnel effort for logistics and measurements
- No influence on traction return current and control and safety systems thanks to insulated track contact
- Bluetooth® 5.0 for transferring measured values to mobile devices
- Download photos and screenshots via USB cable
- For measurements, building inspections and inspections of overhead line systems
Accessories (optional)
- LED lighting for measurements in the dark
- Laser goggles for better visibility of the laser point
- Carrying bags and charging adapter for greater convenience
- Measuring rails for worldwide track gauges from 750 - 1676 mm
- Additional mechanical measuring device for track cant
- FMcapture software for digitized data
