Viessmann 5017 Stromführende Magnetkupplungen, 2-polig, 3 Paar

Viessmann 5017: Current-carrying magnetic couplings H0, 2-pole, 3 pairs

The Viessmann 5017 current-carrying magnetic couplings offer an innovative way of making electrical connections between wagons. This high-quality accessory for the H0 scale (1:87) includes three pairs of two-pole magnetic couplings that ensure reliable and safe power transmission. Ideally suited for interior lighting and other electrical consumers, these couplers make it much easier to supply power to your trains. Thanks to simple installation and precise workmanship, they are an excellent choice for model railroaders who value functionality and quality.

An overview of the Viessmann 5017 magnetic couplers

The current-carrying magnetic couplers have been specially developed to supply electrical consumers such as interior lighting, tail lights or special effects in the carriages without the need for additional cable connections. The couplings are plugged into the standardized NEM 362 shaft and are therefore compatible with a large number of H0 wagons. They are particularly suitable for model train enthusiasts who value realistic design and functionality.

Technical details

The Viessmann 5017 magnetic couplers are characterized by their sophisticated technology and high quality. Here is an overview of the most important technical features:

• Track gauge: H0 (1:87)
• Number of poles: 2-pole, for versatile applications
• Maximum current consumption: 750 mA, ideal for interior lighting or other electrical consumers
• Cable diameter: 0.6 mm, for easy laying
• Compatibility: Suitable for NEM 362 coupling shaft
• Scope of delivery: 3 pairs of current-carrying magnetic couplings, including adapters in three lengths (S: standard, M: +0.3 mm, L: +0.6 mm)

Installation and adaptability

The installation of the Viessmann 5017 couplers is very simple. They are plugged directly into the NEM 362 slot, which is standard in most H0 wagons. The adapters supplied in three different lengths allow the coupling length to be optimally adapted to the respective wagons. Whether narrow or generous coupling distances - the magnetic couplings can be used flexibly.

Thanks to the thin connection cables with a diameter of just 0.6 mm, they can be easily laid inside the wagons without affecting the structure or appearance of the model. The couplings cannot be uncoupled automatically, which ensures a stable connection and reliable power transmission. At the same time, they can be easily disconnected manually if necessary, which makes maintenance easier.

Possible uses and areas of application

The current-carrying magnetic couplers are ideal for a wide range of applications on the model railway layout:

• Interior lighting: provide your passenger carriages with realistic interior lighting that enhances the charm and atmosphere of your layout.
• Tail lights: Attach illuminated tail lights to the end cars of your trains to increase authenticity.
• Special effects: Use the power connection for additional functions such as illuminated advertising signs, animated scenes or effects in special cars.
• Modular train compositions: Create flexible train compositions where electrical connections can be made and released without complication.

By using the Viessmann 5017 couplers, you can dispense with annoying cables between the wagons, which makes the layout of your system clearer and more visually appealing.

Quality and reliability

Viessmann is known for its high-quality products in the field of model railroads, and the current-carrying magnetic couplers 5017 are no exception. Manufactured from robust materials, they offer a long-lasting solution for the power supply on your layout. The precise workmanship guarantees a safe and reliable connection between the wagons, even with longer trains or demanding routes.

The couplings are designed to retain their functionality even with frequent coupling and uncoupling. This makes them a durable and easy-to-maintain addition to your model railway layout.

Integration into your model railway layout

Compatibility with the NEM 362 shaft makes the Viessmann 5017 couplers universally applicable. They are suitable for both modern and historical wagons and can be seamlessly integrated into existing layouts. The possibility of using several couplers in one train makes it possible to operate even complex train compositions with electrical consumers easily and efficiently.

Practical tips for use

To get the best out of your Viessmann 5017 couplings, please note the following tips:

• Use the appropriate adapter lengths to set the ideal coupling length for your wagons.
• Make sure that the connection cables are laid and fastened properly to avoid interference during operation.
• Test the connection after installation to ensure that the power transmission works properly.
• Use the couplers for trains with fixed train compositions to ensure a permanent and reliable power supply.
