INTRODUCTION

Straight track with built-in contact switch

The straight track with built-in contact switch is 55.5 mm long. This corresponds to the length of one straight track 9103.
The built-in contact switch is a momentary impulse switch suitable for a maximum of 0.8 A switching current of 12 – 14 volts. A. C. power, which is independent from the running power. The switching impulse will be activated by the switch magnet 942601 / 942701 which can be mounted on the chassis of either locos or wagons.
The switch magnet 942601 / 942701 can be glued in position in the centre of the wagon chassis inbetween the axles at a height of 2 – 5 mm away from the contact switch (Fig. 1). On longer vehicles with bogies, the magnet should always be fitted to the bogie so that it will always be in the centre of the track even when negotiating curves.
To prevent a permanent contact, which could burn out electrical accessories, the vehicle bearing the magnet should not stop and remain stationary over the contact switch.
Fig. 2 shows the basic switching diagram. One white wire from the track with the contact switch is connected to the white clip of the A. C. output of the transformer. The other white wire is then connected to the colored wire of the electrical accessory to be operated. The black wire of this electrical accessory is then connected to the black clip on the transformer. When operating accessories with a double spool action, (i. e. points, relays, semaphore signals) then each spool will need to be operated by a contact switch, in other words, a 9115 track. Therefore, two 9115 tracks will always be required.

Important :
If several electrically operated points and lighting accessories are to be connected to one transformer, then we recommend the use of the A. C. transformer 6706 to cater for the higher current consumption
