RAIL VEHICLE SAND FILLING SYSTEMS

THE WORLD LEADER IN LIGHT RAIL TRANSPORT (LRT) SAND FILLING SYSTEMS

Leading through innovation and safety, Klein offers two types of Sand Dispensing systems for light rail and locomotive sand filling applications. Each design uses low velocity sand delivery to the dispensers and rail cars to preserve the sand size and quality, as well as protect the operators from harmful silica dust.

Klein Palmer systems automatically deliver brake sand to individual sand dispensing stations with gentle low-velocity conveying methods, which prevent dust formation and eliminates pipe wear. Each dispensing station can then be activated individually, as needed, to quickly fill rail cars with minimal labor. Return air is swept using a unique dust venturi system that protects operators from harmful silica dust.
