Transportation

AcQ Inducom develops and produces complex and non-complex high-tech modular hardware- and software solutions for transportation applications, which can be qualified according international standards.

One of these international qualification standards AcQ Inducom is able to implement is the IEC61508, which covers the complete safety life cycle. The IEC61508 defines the Safety Integrity Level (SIL) using requirements grouped in two broad categories: hardware safety integrity and systematic system integrity. A device of system must meet the requirements for both categories to achieve a given SIL.

Specific environmental testing according EN-50155 (railways) for custom products can also be an integral part of our development program if this is a requirement.

To meet the requirements in this market our standard products can be delivered with extended temperatures and coating. All our standard products are shockproof.
