Mors Smitt has delivered a range of different relays suitable for different applications for M9 Electric Multiple Unit in Long Island, USA. These trains manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries consist of 92 seven-car trains. The first trains entered into service in 2019.

Challenge and solution
The different applications required different relay types all with proven reliability. Besides this, fast prototyping for mock-up and pilot car testing required very short delivery times for the relays. Mors Smitt has a complete relay line for any application and is used by all major North American operators for many years. The one-stop shop (relays for every requirement) in combination with very high reliability and value for money, made the Mors Smitt relays the optimal solution. Local presence at all customer locations to support technical requirements and relay selection, completed the package.
