Monitoring and Control

The main drivers for monitoring on trains are increased availability, passenger comfort and safety considerations. High-end sensors are on the interface from the real world into TCMS and condition based monitoring system. Baumer sensors convince with excellent primary sensor functions, secondary functions and smart interfaces.
