ARLON® Water Resistant Substrate Helps Prevent Snow and Ice Buildup in Doorways
当气温骤降大雪覆盖,列车常面临低温带来的正常运行挑战。其中一个比较严重的问题就是由于恶劣天气造成的列车车门故障。
Exposed to moisture, snow, and ice, these doors are at risk of freezing, which can lead to operational disruptions and safety concerns.
So, what’s the secret behind keeping train doors functioning flawlessly even in the coldest weather?
The answer lies in the integration of a flexible heater with a waterproof substrate that conforms to the door’s shape. This design ensures even heat distribution while preventing moisture ingress, effectively stopping snow and ice buildup in the harshest winter conditions.
Material Design Considerations
When designing for extreme winter conditions, engineers must prioritize materials that offer:
- Flexibility – Conforms to the unique shapes of doorways.
- Water and Environmental Resistance – Withstands exposure to moisture and harsh conditions.
- Durability – Provides long-lasting performance in rugged environments.
- UL Certification – Meets critical safety and flammability standards.
- Heat Transfer Efficiency – Ensures effective and consistent warming.
- Thermal Stability – Performs reliably across a wide temperature range.
