Track Module 2024 for two-wire DC, analogue, specifically for block operation

Anyone who has built electronic modules for controlling starting and braking into their system before is familiar with a particular problem – while one train reaches its precise stopping point, a second stops hugely short of it and a third even continues at such a speed that it overshoots the mark entirely or halts abruptly! Regardless of what control attempts are made, nothing is 100% suitable for all vehicles! This is the result of the varying driving characteristics of each of the individual traction units. Therefore, we have developed a track module with speed-regulated delay. By measuring the approaching train, the slow speed during deceleration is set. In this way, faster trains are decelerated more, whereas slower trains are decelerated to a lesser extent, thus allowing each train to arrive at its intended target.

This microprocessor-controlled module functions using pulse width control. 64 speeds are available. It is specifically for use in block sections and is controlled by the input for occupancy indication for the next track section or ground potential (=free) in connection with the three built-in track occupied indicators.

For use in block sections, single- and double-track, without influence in opposite direction. Aside from the occupancy indicator outlets for all three individual sections, there is also an overall occupancy indicator outlet for switching multiple track component 2024s in a row in automatic block section operation or for feedback via feedback modules 1051 and 1151. In addition to this, a light block signal can also be attached. As such, this compact device enables complete and independent block control. One 2024 module is required per block section.

Transit in the opposite direction at a red signal is possible and occurs without influencing the train.

Requires a traction current source (max. 12V=) and an adjunct current supply (16V~ or =) to operate.

Also available without casing at a lower price as 2124.
