High reliability and safety redundancy
Rail and airport equipment demand high reliability, so the protection strategy, structure and consistency are settled at the design stage.
Rail transit battery packs: auxiliary power and backup
Rail vehicle auxiliary power, signalling backup and airport tractors demand high reliability and safety redundancy. We deliver packs for auxiliary power and ground equipment applications.
Requirements
What this application demands of the pack
These are the electrical and mechanical points that matter in this application.
Wide operating temperature
Outdoor and semi-outdoor environments see wide temperature swings, so the operating range follows the installation and climate.
Long-life design
These assets are costly to service, so long-life design (actual life depends on the operating conditions) is a selection priority.
Scope

Checklist
What we need from you
Give us these and while meeting your performance needs we pick the most cost-effective option for you.
| Item | What to tell us |
|---|---|
| Equipment type and use | Auxiliary power / inspection vehicle / signalling backup / tractor / baggage tractor / boarding bridge |
| System voltage and capacity | System voltage and the backup duration required |
| Continuous and peak current | Continuous working current and peak current requirements |
| Installation space and interface | Battery bay dimensions, mounting method and connector form |
| Certification requirements | Target market and the certification items needed |
| Capacity & discharge | Built from 0.1 Ah to 600 Ah to your requirement — common levels such as 10 Ah, 20 Ah, 50 Ah, 100 Ah and 200 Ah are all confirmed per model; continuous and peak rates are matched to the duty cycle |
The above describes the general matching logic only. The final selection is made by us — your requirements come first, and we work to reduce your cost as far as safety allows.
FAQ
Questions about rail transit and heavy duty packs
Which applications are covered for rail transit packs?
We cover auxiliary power, track inspection vehicles, signalling backup, tractors and baggage tractors, boarding bridges and similar auxiliary and ground equipment — not metro traction. Tell us the specific use in the enquiry and we will put together a selection plan.
Can the pack be built to our system voltage?
Yes. Series/parallel layout and mechanical design follow your system voltage, capacity and backup duration. The form factor is prismatic, built to your mounting and interface requirements.
How is safety redundancy ensured?
The protection strategy, structure and consistency are settled at the design stage, and samples are produced to the same technical requirements and inspection standards as volume production so later batches match the samples.
How is certification handled?
We hold 17 certifications and reports including CE, IEC 62133, UL 2054, RoHS and REACH. Mature models come with existing certificates, provided directly; newly customised models are checked item by item against your target market and specifications. New certifications are handled end to end by our team, with testing costs and timelines set out in the proposal for your confirmation before anything starts.
