Acceleration of pantograph

Overhead line diagnostics- Catenary (OptoCat) can measure the acceleration of pantograph (optional) fixing 2 little accelerometers on the pantograph (inside red circles in the photo of pantograph) it is possible to detect the vertical and horizontal acceleration, the data are fully sYnchronized with all other measurements and the kilometer position. The sensors are connected to the acquisition system through optical fibre (photo example of graphical report).
