With a large number of global references, Pandrol’s Rigid Catenary System is an alternative rail transport power supply system to conventional catenary. Its characteristics make it the most widely used system in tunnels, although its lower maintenance costs justify its installation in a wide range of environments.
Rigid Catenary can replace either the contact wire with sustentation wire, the third rail or the suspended bimetallic T-rail to deliver a number of advantages included reduced maintenance costs and extended product life.
