Device for locating hotbox and locked-brakes in railway vehicles, has data processing device mounted in hollow cross tie

摘要

A device for hotbox and locked-brakes location in railway vehicles, has a housing designed as a hollow cross-tie (2) and with a data processing device, which is connected via at least one measurement data line to a sensor system for temperature detection. The data processing device (5) is arranged within the hollow cross-tie (2) and specifically includes a data reduction module to reduce the data-rate in the data transmission link (8), relative to the sum of the data rates.
