Transductor

Composite Aluminum/Steel Heavy-Duty Conductor System

Transductor combines the electrical performance of aluminum with the strength and durability of standard steel rail into a heavy-duty, high current capacity conductor rail. The highly conductive and corrosionresistant extruded aluminum conductor rails are fastened to the steel rail with steel compression bolts at close intervals to ensure excellent electrical conductivity between the aluminum and steel. Ideal for harsh and high-temperature environments and applications requiring very high currents, Transductor is available in rail sizes from 25lb to 115lb rail with capacities from 1800 amps to 12000 amps.

Features

  • High current capacity aluminum extrusions compression-bolted to the steel rail with an oxidation inhibitor at the aluminum/steel interface
  • Heavy-duty rail and current collectors engineered for harsh and high-temperature environments
  • Full range of standard components including hangers, anchors, feeders, splice joints, expansion joints, isolation joints and collector assemblies
  • Systems are engineered to customer specifications, including system layout and installation support
  • Installation requires only common hand tools
