Parker Hannifin

With weather extremes come challenges from ice forming on rail vehicles and vehicle equipment, increasing the friction and power required to move anything needing motion control (including door systems or the valves that operate almost anything). Maintenance technicians must also be ready to deal with what happens when freezing conditions occur —or when extreme pressure or temperature differentials create the potential for condensation, humidity and moisture within control systems.
