SMRH Tas Model
Railway Products
SMRH
manufactures transistorized hand-held controllers that outperform
conventional resistive controllers in smoothness and sensitive control for
slow running such as shunting. Of late, its digital controllers that lead
the technology race for modellers but personally speaking, I enjoy the
safe running and reliability of DC control. The
SMRH hand-held controllers can be utilized on any layout that is wired
conventionally or wired for sectional power control (also referred to as
cab control). The controllers feature a three metre soft flex cable
allowing the operator to move around the layout. They make the job of
fixing derailments easier when the power control is in your
hand All
controllers have in-built electrical overload protection device that
prevents the controller from ever being damaged by short circuits etc. As
soon as the short is removed from the track the controller is ready to
use. The controllers are built rugged for durability and is supplied fully
assembled and tested. Warranty expressed as two years. (Items covered
components, and labour) Part No.
DC15A - 1.5 Amp hand-held controller
This model is suited to operators who require up to
two locomotives running in tandem off the same controller. The components
are all mounted in the hand-held itself and the matching panel socket is
included. Power input may be any existing controller or power pack capable
of either 12-15VDC with at least 1.5 Amp output. The model features an in
built independent output for reverse loop wiring that allows continuous
operation without stopping the train to change the polarity. Part No. DC4A – 4 Amp hand-held controller
This model is designed for layout operators who need
high current, for example, to operate multiple locomotives on the same
train. This requirement is mostly seen in American modelling where running
four to six locomotives is not uncommon. Exhibition and O gauge operators
have also found the extra current capacity useful on large layouts and for
prolonged running of long trains. The 4 Amp controller is supplied as a
two piece unit comprising of a hand-held controller attached by a
three-metre soft flex cable to a control box. The controller requires a
12-15 volt DC supply capable of producing at least 4 Amps. (There is no
limit on the supply capacity current) It is recommended to feed this
controller with a supply that exceeds 4 Amps to allow the maximum output
through the controller for multiple loco operation. Track feeder wires
around the layout should also be min 2.8mm core size to cope with the
current supply
