Explore our certified heavy-duty power supplies engineered for signaling cabinets, trackside automation, rolling stock electronics, and SCADA control networks.
Addressing the technical challenges of urban transit expansion, tropical climate stress, and critical power conversion in Southern Vietnam.
Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is currently undergoing a historic transit transformation. As Vietnam's economic engine accelerates the execution of the HCMC Urban Railway Master Plan—highlighted by Metro Line 1 (Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien), Metro Line 2 (Ben Thanh – Tham Luong), and expanded regional commuter rail corridors—the demand for ultra-reliable, mission-critical railway automation power systems has reached unprecedented levels. Modern railway infrastructure relies on seamless electrical continuity across trackside signaling, Automatic Train Control (ATC), Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC), SCADA monitoring, and passenger security networks.
Operating railway automation hardware in Ho Chi Minh City presents severe environmental and electrical challenges. Southern Vietnam's tropical monsoonal climate delivers ambient humidity levels exceeding 90%, sustained temperatures reaching +40°C in unconditioned outdoor enclosures, heavy seasonal rainfall, and high lightning strike frequencies. Furthermore, urban grid fluctuations, line surges, and harmonic noise generated by high-power traction drives require robust, isolated switching power supply (SMPS) architectures capable of surviving continuous operation without thermal degradation or unexpected down-time.
A single power stage failure in a trackside signaling cabinet or interlock controller can lead to automatic transit halts, signal failure locks, and cascading delays across the entire HCMC metro corridor. Our modular AC-DC power supplies, DIN-rail switching modules, and isolated DC-DC converters are purpose-built to withstand severe tropical ambient stresses, meeting stringent EN 50155, EN 45545-2, and IEC 62368-1 international standards.
Purpose-engineered parameters designed to eliminate single points of failure in rail automation and control systems.
Rail battery systems suffer from severe voltage dips during locomotive ignition and load swings. Our railway DC-DC converters accept 4:1 wide inputs (18–75VDC, 43–160VDC), ensuring stable 12V, 24V, or 48V outputs despite heavy line drops.
Equipped with 1,500 VDC up to 6,000 VDC isolation barriers, our power converters prevent ground loops, shield sensitive FPGA controllers from high-voltage traction noise, and protect trackside sensors from lethal transient spikes.
Designed for Ho Chi Minh City's high humidity and atmospheric moisture. Internal PCBs are coated with military-grade conformal coating (MIL-I-46058C) to resist salt spray, high humidity corrosion, and dust contamination.

Deployment examples showcasing how our power supplies drive safety and uptime across Southern Vietnam's transit hubs.
Along the 19.7-kilometer corridor of HCMC Metro Line 1 (Ben Thanh to Suoi Tien Depot), trackside control boxes house ultra-sensitive signaling modules, axle counters, and wireless transponders. Our NDR-480 DIN Rail power supplies deliver stable, low-noise 24VDC power to these cabinets, featuring built-in overvoltage protection (OVP) and 150% peak load capacity to handle electromagnetic relay actuation without voltage sags.
Modern passenger trains running through HCMC metro lines require robust DC-DC voltage conversion from the main 110V auxiliary battery bank down to 12V or 24V DC. This feeds passenger info displays, surveillance cameras, automated door sensors, and emergency lighting. Our EN 50155 certified board-mount and chassis-mount converters deliver shock and vibration resistance tested under EN 61373 categories.
Major transit hubs like Ben Thanh Central Station, Opera House Station, and Ba Son Station integrate high-volume AFC turnstiles, ticket vending machines, and central SCADA monitoring units. Our wide-range AC-DC switching power modules and high-efficiency desktop adapters supply clean continuous current, operating 24/7 with zero maintenance under high ambient station temperatures.
Power distribution substations along the rail line demand 48VDC power banks and high-power LED drivers for perimeter security lighting and control telemetry. Products like our 500W DXS-500-48 Adjustable Drivers provide precise voltage calibration, active power factor correction (APFC), and IP-rated weatherproofing to withstand torrential monsoonal downpours.
