COBRA New Generation AWS Magnets

COBRA New Generation AWS Magnets

COBRA is Haide Technologies’ next-generation range of fixed installation AWS magnets, developed for legacy and new 24VDC and 110VAC applications. Designed to deliver reduced weight, stronger resilience and dependable performance, COBRA provides a modern trackside detection solution that remains fully compatible with existing infrastructure.

Engineered without on-board electronics, firmware or microcontrollers, COBRA magnets remove the switch-on inrush currents and switch-off transients typically associated with conventional AWS magnets. The result is a lighter, more reliable and more robust solution that is resistant to impact, immersion and thermal degradation—helping rail operators improve resilience, simplify installation and support long-term asset performance.
