PAS / Radio sets

Public Address System (PAS) sets are designed for use in rolling stock and for, single-purpose motorised and electric units to provide sound in the passenger compartment. If needed it can be choosen between compact, modular and slim design - these sets may be installed separately into a switchboard with the control telephone installed in a more ergonomically accessible location. Sets may be installed in locomotives, in service wagons or in passenger carriages where they perform specific functions.

Deliver information to passengers efficiently
Broadcast information via the on-board intercom speaker system
Increased convenience for train personnel
Connect calls from a single location, to the engineer, passengers in the carriage or the entire train
