BTM-SG      

Booster Keep Separate Module

for a secure electrical separation of

Booster Current Circuits

for all digital formats of the Digital-Professional-Series !

If a manufacturer of a Digital Command Station (e.g. Central Station 2 of Märklin) request a complete electrical separation to other booster circuits both rails and for the 3 conductor rail system additionally the center conductor have to be electrical isolated at the separation points between two booster circuits.

This is theory only! In praxis will cancel every train the isolation temporarily during passing the separation point.

In case the train will stop on the separation point the train will initiate a permanent electrical connection between the booster circuits. This will result to electrical damage at the Digital Command Station and Booster.

The Solution:

• The Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG provides a secure electrical separation of the Booster Current Circuits.

• With this wiring will get the switch-over track, which is situated between two booster current circuits as separation point, the digital current supply from one of the two boosters only. Corresponding to the driving direction will be the digital current supply to the Switch-Over track automatically switched to the competent booster circuit under the travelling train.

• The Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG will monitor the direction of a train between two isolated track sections. This isolated track sections are a so called Sensor-Track with an optimal length of 5 to 20 cm.

• Between the two Sensor-Tracks will be the Switch-Over track. This Switch-Over track has to have at least the length of the longest train on the layout.

• The Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG is able to switch a Digital Current of up to 8 Ampere.

• The Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG can operate without any problems on a layout in combination with any different boosters of various manufacturers and with various electrical characteristics.

• Further sample connections for the Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG can be found for downloading here!

• Components from the Digital-Professional-Series can operate on your digital layout without any problems. You will receive on finished modules and finished modules in a case 2 years limited warranty.

• Each Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG comes with a detailed operation- and assembly instruction.

• The Booster Keep Separation Module BTM-SG is available as kit, finished module or as finished module in a case.
