Switch Heating

Product Description

Proper Switch function is vital to the safe and reliable movement of all types of Rail Cars.  Snow and ice build up between the Stock and Switch Rails can cause malfunction of the Signaling System and increase the risk of equipment damage and derailment.

RTR's Switch Point Snowmelter and Switch Rod Heating Systems help eliminate service Interruptions and equipment failure caused by compaction and compression of ice and snow in switches.

RTR offers complete Snowmelter Systems with a variety of Controls including Hard Wired, Radio Frequency, Fuse Disconnect Boxes and Junction Boxes.
