This pantograph model is used on all types of DC electric locomotives, as well as on AC electric locomotives of the "Hexie" series produced by CRRC Datong and Dalian plants.
Its airbag-based lifting mechanism ensures excellent control and contact performance, while the ADD (Automatic Drop Device) enables rapid pantograph lowering in the event of a catenary fault, protecting the overhead line. Currently, this product is widely applied to various passenger and freight locomotives operating at speeds below 200 km/h.
