DE-ICE SYSTEM

Train depot - Kärråkra

Efficient fully automatic de-icing systems. De-Icing is a patented solution to effectively prevent the build-up of snow and ice. With an EP 70, electric boiler 70kW, environmentally friendly and biodegradable propylene glycol is heated via a plate heat exchanger in a heating circuit designed and produced by Värmebaronen.

In winter, the train's undercarriage freezes again, with reduced functions as a result.
Snow and ice are removed using the de-icing system.

After DE-ICING, a thin film is left on the undercarriage to prevent refreezing. The system is extremely energy-efficient and enables quick servicing of the train.
