Wherever large diesel engines are used, electrical preheating is an elementary component of the overall system. In train systems, for example, the cooling water circuit is heated to the required temperature before the engine is started. Schniewindt also manufactures various series in the field of resistor technology, which are used specifically in drive technology.
Rail transport is becoming increasingly important as a sustainable means of transport due to rising global demand for both passenger and freight transport. We offer our various CSN® resistors both for installation in rail vehicles and for stationary operation in traction power supply systems.
In safety-relevant railway construction, Schniewindt is certified as a Q1 supplier to Deutsche Bahn AG. Individual heating components are approved worldwide by various maritime certification organisations.
Electric heating coils for air conditioning system manufacturers, convector heaters (also for use in potentially explosive environments), tubular and screw-in heaters for separation systems are just as much a part of the product portfolio as heating flanges or brake resistors.
