AS303

Automatic Timed Shuttle

The Automatic Shuttle will work on any gauge, but only on DC systems. The Train will stop at each end for an adjustable period from 5 seconds to 90 seconds, before reversing back to the other end. The Sequence is then continuous until the power is removed, so ideal for small straight layouts, or branch line section of a larger layout.
Voltage: 12 DC
Timer: 5 to 90 seconds

CD105

TITAN Capacitor Discharge Unit

The High Power unit will power up to 8 sets of points simultaneously. The purpose of capacitor discharge units is to store up electricity in a capacitor. The electrical charge is released, on throwing a switch, as a burst of a much larger current than a transformer can supply. The CDU can be supplied with either an AC or DC voltage up to 24v. Operating from 24 volts typically gives 4 times the power. In most cases a voltage of 16v AC is ideal to power a CDU. The output of a CDU is always DC.

CN161

LED Dimmable Distribution Board 8 way

The CN161 is an 8 way Dimmable LED distribution Board with 3 brightness levels per channel. Ideal for buildings, Street lights, Security Lighting, in 8 sections of the layout. This means you could have dim lighting from certain buildings or homes, and also bright lighting from other buildings or homes at the same time. It can be used for providing common power to LED's on the Control Panel without having a pesky dropping resistor for each LED. The two way switch allows you to adjust the brightness of each channel.

CN162

Single or Dual Polarity 14 way Connector

How many times have you had to loop one side of a terminal strip (chocolate block) to give you a few common terminals. It's always looks messy and is usually a point of connection problems in the future, and also takes up valuable time.
Now we have the answer for you, a small terminal block 45 x 28mm with 14 screw terminals all connected on the underside of the PCB. Ideal for localised common Negative or Positive. A position where you need to join half a dozen wires together for some reason.

There is 1 input to the Distribution Board, DCC or DC up to 24volts via a green terminal block, DC up to 24 volts via a 2.1mm socket. Each output is double switched as DC or DCC this means that both the Positive and the Negative are switched ON or OFF. Each of the 8 outputs can switch a load of up to 6 Amps.

CN173

Switched 8 way Distribution 8 In - 8 Out

The CN173 is available in Chassis Mounting (CN173) or in Panel Mounting (CN173a). The unit has 8 separate dual line switching, it can switch both the Live (Positive) and Neutral (Negative) at the same time giving a fully isolated section after the switch. As each switch has its own Input and Output, this means you can switch different types of
voltage on the same board. Channel 1 could be 16v AC for Points, Channel 2 could be 3v for LED Lighting circuits, Channel 3 could be 12v. from speed control to switch Programming track, or just isolate a section

Channel 2 could be 3v for LED Lighting circuits,
Channel 3 could be 12v from speed controller.
Channel 4 could be the Programming track, and so on
Board size is 97.5 x 65mm, Voltage Range: 2v to 48v AC or DC, Current Rating: Max 8 Amps per Channel

FR609 FR610

Forward / Reverse Switch with Indicators

The FR609 & FR610 are triple Pole Double Throw mini toggle switches. The FR609 is ON – ON, whereas the FR610 is ON – OFF – ON. 2 of the poles are used to reverse the polarity of the incoming power so that when the switch is moved across the output polarity is reversed. Instead of complicated wiring on the back of the switch the PCB does all this for you. The 3rd pole gives an LED Indication of the status of the Power the complete PCB with switch and indicators is only 26 x 28mm
LED Indicators are supplied separately and can be plugged into the Sockets on each side of the switch. The LEDs are in the same line as the switch and the leads can be cut to give the correct length for the front panel, and can either be insert into a bezel (6.5mm hole) or directly into the panel (5mm hole)

JC251 JC252

Table Connection Kit 25 way with 1m or 2m cable

Ideal for converting 24 individual wires into one cable and then back again in another place. between Tables at an Exhibition, between rooms on a layout.

PM111

Diode Matrix Route Selector

The PM111 Diode Matrix can switch 8 Point Sets and can have 8 route switches. The board is 139 x 64 mm with fixing holes in each corner. It comes complete with 4 self-adhesive stand offs, and 50 x 1N4004 diodes. Each diode will handle up to 400v at 1 Amp.
It is recommended that you use our ‘Titan’ Capacitor Discharge Unit (CDU) as this can handle in excess of 8
point sets at one time.
A Diode Matrix is simply a set of Diodes placed in an order between a switch and a set of Points. You will remember that a diode only allows current to pass in one direction. So we can use this ability to set a number of points to change to create a path for the train to travel, all from one switch. As you will have in certain cases more than one switch connected to a point motor, the diode stops the current flowing to a point set that you do not need at that point in time.

SS600

Scenic Sound System

Take your layout to new levels of realism. Brimal Components introduce their new Sound System SS600
Scalable from the largest of layouts to smaller single track bookshelf type layouts irrespective of gauge.
With up to 15 sound effects available to play on demand, they can be played either individually or together to to give a richer mix to the scene. For example, sounds of sea birds combined with those of rain, traffic or people. All soundtracks can be initiated by moving the toggle switch down momentarily, or with the toggle switch in the UP position by using magnetically activated switches in the track bed too, from a small magnet fitted under the locomotive or rolling stock. Sound of coaches passing, of wagon couplings, together with Locomotive sounds. All this bringing the realistic sound of the trains together with trackside operations and the surrounding environment for both the analogue and DCC layout alike.
You pick the sounds you want from the list which can be downloaded or you can start with sounds pre-loaded on to a micro SD card. So if you run steam locomotives and Diesels you can have the option to swap the sound card to suit exactly what your running.
The SS600 comes complete with a small internal speaker for checking sounds and a built in 5w stereo aplifier for external speakers. Powered from a 9-16 V dc supply the unit can be powered either from the Aux output of your speed controller via the terminals at the rear of the unit, or a plug in power pack set at 12vDC
