All switches are fitted with movable, load bearing tongues.
The switch mechanism is mechanical and is operated by a chain. For the standard mechanism the pull chain is located at 500 mm from the monorail. On request a lengthened mechanism can be supplied so that the pull chain is suspended further from the track.
Executions of the RAILTECHNIEK switches
The switches are schematically indicated in top view. For the standard execution of the 2 way switches the pull chain for the operation of the switch mechanism is suspended to sidewards the straight track. On request the pull chain can be suspended sidewards to the track curve.

- 3 way switch 250.738 3 way switch with special switch operating device This 3 way switch is composed of a combination of switches with different functions.
Ex. A 3 way switch may be composed of a switch without operation and of a second one
spring operated.
As this 3 way switch is composed of two separate working switches the function is
indicated with a identification number of 5 figures which follows the order number of the
switch.
The first three figures of the codification refer to the mechanism of the right switch and the
last two figures of the identification number refer to the mechanism of the left switch.
The reference is for instance: 250.607/00307
This is a 3 way switch 2x90° of which the switch without operation is the right one and the
spring operated the left one. Switches with lengthened pull chain The switches are fitted out with a lengthened pull chain in case of transport of large loads.
In this execution the pull chain is suspended at 1meter from the monorail.
Identification number:
Ex.: -Standard switch - with lengthened pull chain: 250.510.005
-Y-switch - with lengthened pull chain left: 250.620.005
-Y-switch - with lengthened pull chain right: 250.620.006 Remark
The track switches also can be fitted out with a pneumatic or electrical switching device. For farther information please contact our engineering department.
