PRESS RELEASE
Funkwerk secures new contract from Bombardier
State-of-the-art audio systems for Hamburg S-Bahn
Kölleda, 20 February 2014 - Funkwerk AG, Kölleda, has secured a further
contract from Bombardier Transportation. The contract involves the supply
of state-of-the-art audio systems for equipment of altogether 60 multiple
unit trains operating in the Hamburg suburban railway system (S-Bahn). The
ambitious project, which is to be completed by the end of 2018, was
commenced without delay.
The electro-acoustic system (ELA) from Funkwerk is already in use and
successful in suburban trains also supplied by Bombardier in Stuttgart and
Frankfurt, enabling the new project to be implemented promptly. Use of
standardised hardware and software components further allows significant
synergies to be realised - such as in spares pooling and through know-how
transfer.
The Funkwerk audio system approved for use up to safety integrity level SIL
2 exhibits a significant degree of automation and high availability. Its
key functions include driver announcements to passengers, control of
on-board and off-train announcements on the correct side, and communication
between passengers and the driver. Up to three vehicles operating in
multiple traction can be interconnected. Proven in use, the audio system
recognises the configuration of the train and, without the involvement of
personnel, allows the communication between passengers and the driver.
