Amtrak
Standard Diaphragm
RailPlan has developed a new generation
of diaphragms that could eventually replace all
diaphragms being used on passenger railroads in the US
market. The new diaphragm design meets the stringent
smoke, flame, and toxicity requirements dictated by new
industry standards and was designed to meet the most
stringent operating conditions.
The new design is compliant with the “Amtrak National
Standard” (for compliance with most other passenger
railroads) and combines a balance of state of the art
materials with proven technologies. Two prototypes have
successfully completed bench testing and are currently
in Amtrak long haul and regional service.
