Roco 42615 model turntable with electric drive: Precise control and versatility for your model railway

The Roco 42615 model turntable is an indispensable accessory for discerning model railroaders who want to turn their locomotives on the layout in style and efficiently. This turntable with electric drive enables precise control of the turning movements, allowing locomotives to be maneuvered quickly and reliably in the desired direction. With the enclosed control unit and numerous customization options, the turntable offers flexibility and functionality for any model railway layout, regardless of whether you run on direct or alternating current.

Functionality and precision of the Roco model turntable

The Roco 42615 turntable model offers a variety of practical functions that make shunting and positioning locomotives much easier. The minimum angle between two track exits is 9 degrees, which makes it possible to place track exits at different angles. The turntable also comes with filler pieces with pitches of 1°, 3°, 6° and 9°, so that the track exits can be flexibly adjusted in 1° increments. This allows you to adapt the turntable individually to your layout and ensure the most realistic operation possible.

Technical highlights of the Roco 42615 model turntable

The Roco 42615 is equipped with a powerful electric drive that operates with a supply voltage of 14 V ~. This ensures smooth and reliable operation. The turntable offers two selectable rotation speeds, making it possible to adapt operation to different scenarios. The control unit can be used to preselect the direction of rotation and start the rotary movement. When the turntable switch is released, the turntable stops automatically at the next track exit, allowing precise handling.

• Minimum angle between two track exits: 9°: The track exits can be flexibly positioned at different angles, allowing optimum use of space on the layout.
• Fillerpieces for flexible adjustment: The enclosed filler pieces with pitches of 1°, 3°, 6° and 9° allow precise adjustment of the track outlets in 1° increments.
• Two selectable rotation speeds: The user can choose between two speeds to individually adapt the turntable operation to the layout and operation.
• Traction current feed into the turntable: The traction current is fed directly into the turntable. This ensures that the power supply is also reliable during the turning process.
• Control of the track outlets: The control unit can be used to assign the traction voltage supply to the track outlets in order to prevent locomotives that are parked from moving off unintentionally.

Installation dimensions and compatibility

The Roco 42615 turntable is designed for easy integration into model railroad layouts. The installation opening is 280 mm in diameter, while the installation depth from the top edge of the table is 50 mm. The outer diameter of the turntable without track outlets is 307 mm, and the platform length of 253 mm is sufficient for locomotives with a wheelbase of up to 250 mm. This generous capacity enables larger locomotives to be turned and makes the turntable particularly versatile.

• Required installation opening: 280 mm
• Installation depth: 50 mm
• Outer diameter of the turntable without track outlets: 307 mm
• Platform length: 253 mm, suitable for locomotives with a wheelbase of up to 250 mm
• Minimum radius: 600 mm

Versatile application possibilities and safety

The Roco 42615 model turntable is suitable not only for direct current (DC) but also for alternating current (AC) systems and can be operated on all NEM-compliant two-wire direct current and three-wire alternating current tracks. Thanks to the precise control and the option of assigning the track outputs individually, the locomotive remains safe and reliable even in tricky situations.

Another advantage is the safety function integrated in the control unit, which prevents two opposing track outlets from being energized at the same time. This protects your parked locomotives from unintentional start-up, which significantly improves the safety and operation of your model railway layout.

Why the Roco 42615 turntable is an enrichment for your model railway layout

The Roco 42615 model turntable offers model railroaders a flexible and versatile solution for turning and shunting locomotives on the layout. Thanks to the precise control system and the option of adjusting the track angles in 1° increments, the turntable can be perfectly integrated into any layout. The two selectable turning speeds and the integrated safety functions make it an ideal addition to sophisticated model railway layouts where functionality and reliability are paramount.
