Decoupler


Product Details
DESCRIPTION
The decoupler track is designed to decouple cars from LEGO® trains. When the decoupler is open the cars can pass; when it's closed the claws of the decoupler block the wheels of the first car and the train leaves without the cars.



The decoupler track is fully compatible with the PF track system. It has a servo motor to actuate the claws. It also has an integrated sensor that can detect the magnets of the train couplings. This allows you to check whether the train is positioned correctly on the decoupler.

The decoupler motor can be controlled with a Quad Switch Contoller or a motor port of a Starter Contoller. The sensor needs to be connected to a Quad Sensor Contoller or the sensor port a Starter Contoller. Our free nControl train automation software provides a user friendly interface to use the decoupler.

You can also control the decopuler with your own Arduino® based control system.

The decoupler also has a mechanical safety to make sure the motor is not damaged when the trains wheels block the claw when the decoupler is being closed. The integrated sensor should help you to prevent this by providing real time feedback on the positinging of the train.

DIMENSIONS
The decoupler track is 8 studs long, so you might need a half straight track to fit it into your layout. The motor extends 6 studs beyond the edge of the tracks. On the other side it extends 1 stud beyond the standard track.

The integrated servo motor gives the decoupler a small footpint and allows to use multiple decouplers in a standard rail yard.




COLOR
Dark Bluish Gray; to match the LEGO® PF tracks.
