Walter Kraus GmbH

Safe, trouble-free rail traffic can only be guaranteed by equipping it with high-quality components that are reliable in terms of safety and functionality. We do our part by producing disconnectors and earthing switches for the entire area of ​​railway infrastructure: as a component for all types of railway vehicles, but also for the entire area alongside the route.

The increased safety standards that apply in the field of rail traffic technology are reflected in the high material and manufacturing quality of our components.

In addition to disconnectors, our portfolio includes earthing switches, which, installed in the rolling stock and track side, guarantee the safety of maintenance or repair work.

Earthing switches must be used to avoid possible personal injury due to residual voltage remaining in the rail vehicle even after disconnection from the network. Our switches ensure optimal protection as part of an effective security solution.
