Description

41-05480-01 LD-W-42.2 Locomotive Decoder, without cable – Precision for AC motors

The LD-W-42.2 locomotive decoder is the perfect choice for all model railroaders who want to control their locomotives with AC motors precisely and reliably. Thanks to its versatility, it supports various digital formats and offers extensive functions for motor control and automation. With its compact dimensions, it can be easily installed in various locomotive models. Whether DCC, RailCom, or Märklin Motorola II—this decoder is ready for a wide range of applications.

Compatibility and Protocol Variety

The LD-W-42.2 supports common digital protocols such as DCC and Märklin Motorola II (MM II), as well as modern data transmission via RailCom and DCC-A. This makes it an ideal fit for sophisticated digital control systems and enables flexible applications on your model railroad layout. Additional support for the ABC braking method ensures realistic braking maneuvers, just like those of real locomotives.

Optimal Motor Control and Protection Functions

With a maximum motor current of 1,000 mA and a total current of 1,500 mA, the decoder provides stable motor control. Features such as a start-up boost and a constant braking distance ensure smooth acceleration and precise stopping of the locomotive. The built-in overload protection safeguards the decoder and the locomotive from damage caused by current spikes or overheating.

Versatile Control Options

The decoder features four switching outputs, each capable of handling up to 300 mA. This allows for easy control of additional functions such as lights, smoke generators, or other accessories. The integrated switching input enables additional control options that expand the range of functions. The interface option allows you to choose between a version with or without soldered cables, depending on the installation situation.

Compact Design and Easy Installation

With dimensions of just 22 x 17 x 4 mm, the LD-W-42.2 fits even in tight locomotive housings. The flexible choice between a version with or without cables simplifies integration into existing systems. Thanks to its support for analog operation, the decoder is also ideally suited for mixed layouts.
