Sécheron / Sécheron Hasler Group

Sécheron is a leading supplier of electrical and electronic safety components and solutions for rail vehicles and traction power systems for the railway industry. Providing our customers worldwide with the best-in-class solutions since 1879, Sécheron achieves long-term sustainability through technological innovation, superior quality and unrivalled customer service.

With extensive experience and a century-long international presence, we possess unique skills and knowledge of railway applications.

Rail vehicles

Sécheron offers a broad range of solutions for AC, DC and multi-system rail vehicles.

We design and manufacture standard and custom AC and DC circuit breakers, contactors and off-load switches, AC voltage & current sensors, and other components that cover all the needs of the vehicle traction chain in terms of electrical safety, switching and energy measurement.

Sécheron’s electrical safety equipment protects medium-voltage AC and DC circuits from over-currents, short circuits, surge voltages and unsafe catenary voltages, all while guaranteeing the safety of maintenance technicians.

Our broad range of contactors and disconnectors perform all switching functions for the traction chain on a very high reliability level, while ensuring that all electrical devices are optimally coordinated.

We offer a complete Energy Measurement System, certified according to the most stringent standards in the railway field, with solutions for voltage and current measurement (VMF, CMF), energy calculation (ECF) and data handling systems (DHS) to allocate consumption, compile energy billing data and send it to ground-based receivers.

For customers seeking turnkey solutions, or for vehicles operating in harsh environmental conditions such as snow, ice, sand, dust or pollution, Sécheron produces complex subsystems which seamlessly integrate our own and third-party components in compact high-voltage cabinets for installation on the roof or under the frame of the vehicles.

All our solutions and components have unrivalled track records and are supported worldwide by superior service for optimal reliability and performance.

Traction Power Substations

As the world’s leading supplier of electrical equipment for DC traction substations, our large installed base spans the globe and includes equipment like innovative power conversion systems, DC switchgears, distribution panels, electrical protection and supervision systems. All of our products are backed by value-added services throughout projects and equipment lifecycles.

A long collaboration with Japan

For over 30 years, we have supported the Japanese railway industry (Mitsubishi Electric, Toshiba, Hitachi, Fuji Electric, Kawasaki, Kinki Sharyo, and others) with our technology and components for both domestic and export markets. Our devices are in operation on thousands of vehicles at JR-East, JR-West, JR-Central, Tokyo & Osaka Metro and many other networks in different Japanese cities.
