Smoke Generators for large sale decoders

ZIMO smoke generators are specially designed for ZIMO large-scale decoders, their characteristics and connections. The supplied cable can be connected directly to the loco board matching the decoder, without risk of twisting or mixing up the connections. The use of non-ZIMO decoders is possible under certain circumstances, but with restrictions.
For controlling single smoke generators from other manufacturers for H0 gauge (and small 0 gauge) together with ZIMO H0 gauge decoders, ZIMO offers the RAUSIH01 board.

RAUSI1

single-
smoke
generator

 

The RAUSI1 single smoke generator is suitable for operation together with ZIMO large scale decoders. The RAUSI1 has a heating element and a small fan. A temperature sensor protects the heating element from overheating and destruction when the tank is empty. This tank can easily be filled from above via the chimney.
A 4-wire cable with plug is connected to the RAUSI1. The cable is 50cm long and can be shortened to the desired length at the end without a plug and then connected to the large scale decoder or the loco board.

 

Dimensions L x W x H:
Casing without screwed-on chimney extension: 49 x 29 x 27 mm
(Height with screwed-on top chimney extension: 45,5 mm; width with screw lugs 36 mm)

RAUSI2

single-
smoke
generator

 

The RAUSI2 single smoke generator is suitable for operation together with ZIMO large scale decoders, especially in gauge 0 models. Like the RAUSI1, the RAUSI2 has a heating element and a small fan. A temperature sensor protects the heating element from overheating and destruction when the tank is empty. This tank can be easily filled from above via the chimney and has the same volume of 4ml, despite the smaller dimensions of the RAUSI2, but should only be filled with 3.5ml to avoid overflowing.
A 4-core cable with plug is connected to the RAUSI2. The cable is 50cm long and can be shortened to the required length at the end without the plug and then connected to the large-scale railway decoder or the locomotive circuit board. 

 

Dimensions L x W x H:
Casing: 45 x 24 x 25 mm
(Height with chimney: 30 mm; Width with screw lugs 32,5 mm)

Oil tank volume: 3.5 ml (max 4 ml)

RAUDU1

dual-
gmoke
generator

The dual smoke generator RAUDU1 is suitable for operation together with ZIMO large scale decoders. In order to be able to control the chimney steam and the cylinder steam separately, the RAUDU1 has two separately controllable heating elements and two separately controllable small fans. Two temperature sensors protect the heating elements from overheating and destruction when the tank is empty. The common tank can be easily filled from above via the chimney.
A 6-core cable with plug is connected to the RAUDU1. The cable is 50cm long and can be shortened to the desired length at the end without a plug and then connected to the large scale decoder or the loco board.

 

Dimensions L x W x H:
Casing without screwed-on chimney extensions: 49 x 29 x 31 mm
(Height with screwed-on top chimney extensions: 67,5 mm; Width with screw lugs 36 mm)
