RPM Tech: AF1 Cold Air Blower Mounted On Hi-Rails

RPM Tech

The AF1 cold air blower system is the ideal solution for clearing rapidly accumulating snow, ice and hard-packed snow from tracks, third rails, switches, and even loading platforms in some cases – and do so safely. It comes with an adjustable nozzle to control and direct the desired airflow to ensure precise and efficient cleaning of targeted area. The AF1 vehicle can travel at speeds of up to 56mph (90 km/h) on roads or up to 19 mph (30 km/h) on tracks for snow removal and track maintenance. The AF1’s hi-rail system is rapidly engaged hydraulically which enables the operator to travel from one site to another thus increasing productivity.
