To deliver rail transit solutions capable of attracting more\u00a0 passengers, operators must take passenger comfort to a whole new level. Climate control,\u00a0 barrier-free entry\/exit and general ease of access are all key factors in passenger-friendly rail\u00a0travel.\u00a0Knorr-Bremse<\/a>\u00a0offers a broad range of comfort-enhancing solutions, including state-of\u00a0-the-art climate control and entrance systems \u2013 and will showcase them at InnoTrans 2024 in\u00a0 the \u201cTraveling Comfort\u201d exhibition space (Main Hall 1.2, Booth 250).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Perfect temperature control plus safe, clean, breathable in-train air\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the pandemic, a safe, clean atmosphere in train compartments has become a key\u00a0 consideration for operators seeking to rebuild passengers\u2019 trust in rail travel. At InnoTrans,\u00a0 Knorr-Bremse brand Merak will present solutions that make passenger compartments more\u00a0comfortable by maintaining pleasant, even temperatures and removing pathogens from the\u00a0 air. Visitors interacting with the\u00a0custom[air] exhibit\u00a0<\/strong>will be able to combine different climate\u00a0control technologies to create their own integrated air-supply solutions, including simulations\u00a0 of the company\u2019s \u201creal air feeling\u201d: Passengers traveling in train compartments equipped with\u00a0 Merak\u2019s\u00a0clean[air] suite\u00a0<\/strong>will have no difficulties breathing deeply and easily.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Modular and retrofittable, the suite\u2019s customizable combination of fresh air, smart ventilation,\u00a0 highly efficient filters and air purifiers creates a healthier, more comfortable environment.\u00a0 Passengers traveling with participating operators can use an app to check the quality of the\u00a0 air in their train in real time. Key features for delivering pure, clean air include vertical air\u00a0 circulation and intelligent ventilation concepts, combined with air purification features for\u00a0 removing particulates, aerosols and pathogens such as UV-C lamps and electronic\u00a0 nearfields. Working together, they make a major difference both seasonally \u2013 in summer or winter \u2013 and when trains are filled to capacity, for example during rush hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Barrier-free access with ZeroStepBoarding\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

A core premise of modern rail travel is that it should be available and accessible to all. At\u00a0 InnoTrans, the\u00a0ZeroStepBoarding\u00a0<\/strong>entrance concept showcased by Group brand IFE\u00a0 enables passengers with reduced mobility \u2013 including people in wheelchairs or using walking\u00a0 aids \u2013 to easily enter and exit trains without any barriers. The ingenious entrance concept,\u00a0 sporting a TSI PRM-compliant threshold with 18% (10.2\u00b0) gradient and a step height of only\u00a0 9 mm, is especially designed for use in intercity and high-speed trains with doorways up to\u00a0 1.6 meters wide. The new sealing system does not require a matching counterseal on the\u00a0 ramp-shaped doorsill \u2013 the clever design is inherently capable of building up sufficient\u00a0 pressure to seal the train against the pressure waves caused whenever trains pass each\u00a0 other or enter tunnels.<\/p>\n

Unlike other barrier-free solutions, ZeroStepBoarding works without any additional active\u00a0 elements such as hinged sealing flaps or rising steps. With less to go wrong, this reduced\u00a0 complexity results in higher availability and greater reliability. The ZeroStepBoarding door\u00a0 exhibit on display at InnoTrans is also fitted with a multifunctional access aid. In ramp mode,\u00a0 the aid does also meet the TSI PRM specifications.\u00a0<\/p>\n

ZeroStepBoarding \u2013 which can also be integrated into the train\u2019s smart system monitoring\u00a0 solution \u2013 has a similarly positive impact on traffic flow. By making the boarding and alighting\u00a0 process safer and faster, the system speeds up train departures, saving customers and\u00a0 operators valuable time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
