high-pressure blower.
Main Housing Unit
Track Duct: A rigid aluminum duct
•
mounted to the railroad ties. The
track duct is electrically isolated with
gaskets and fiberglass bushings that
are low in moisture absorption and
high in dielectric strength.
Directional Nozzles: Rigid aluminum
•
nozzles attached to the track duct
which can be moved to direct airflow
onto the switch points.

stainless-steel insulated duct
connecting the main housing unit to
the track duct. The connecting hose
allows for the convenient placement
of the main housing unit relative to
the rail switch and isolates the track
duct from the electronics in the main
housing unit. Placement examples for
the main housing unit can be found
in

and directional nozzles are
manufactured from heavy-wall
corrosion-resistant aluminum
providing high strength and durability
with reduced weight. All fasteners are
manufactured from either corrosion-
resistant aluminum or plated steel.
