AERIS-A™
Advanced Environmental Rail Intake System
AERIS-A governs how outside air enters the coach and how it is conditioned before reaching the cabin. It works as part of an integrated air-management architecture together with THERM-R — it does not independently "purify all air"; it manages intake, filtration and environmental sensing at the point of entry.
Functions
- Intelligent fresh-air intake
- Multi-stage filtration
- Air-quality sensing (PM2.5 / PM10 / CO₂)
- Particulate monitoring
- Environmental condition monitoring
- Controlled ventilation
- Airflow optimisation
- Cabin air-quality intelligence
- Interaction with thermal management
Sensors & Interfaces
- Particulate matter (PM2.5/PM10)
- CO₂ concentration
- Temperature & humidity
- Differential pressure across filters
- Damper position feedback
Inputs
- Ambient air
- Cabin return air
- CORE-ERMC control signals
Outputs
- Conditioned intake air
- Air-quality telemetry
- Filter-life diagnostics
Indicative dimensions
~2000 × 1200 × 750 mm — subject to detailed coach survey, structural, thermal, aerodynamic and manufacturing engineering.
