Traction Inverters

Locomotive Traction and Marine Propulsion Inverters

Locomotive Power Converters

The ATS traction and propulsion inverters convert power provided by the common DC bus to AC power of suitable voltage and frequency to achieve the required motor speed for traction or propulsion as requested by the operator.

If the maximum power limit of all the sources is reached, the commands from the operator are modified proportionally so as to remain within the power limit but preserve the ratio of the motor speed.

Suitable for induction or permanent magnet motors.

Highlights

  • There are two lists here generally.
  • Unordered lists shows bullets but you could use ordered list
  • The first list usually shows quick features
  • Over 30 locomotive systems in daily operation
  • Modular rack construction
  • Automatic wheel-slip and wheel-slide control

 

  • The second list starts here and has more in-depth descriptions and benefits.  They can be quick one liners or full paragraphs.
  • Again, this can be unordered lists that show bullets or ordered lists that show numbered items.  The choice is up to you.
  • Of course, you can and add any other text, or images in or out of the bulleted items, but this is the layout generally used for product pages.
  • For the links to PDF documents to show up, use the “Download Attachments” section below the editor.  Click “Add new attachment” to select already uploaded files or upload new ones.  You can reorder the files by dragging on the 3-line icon up and down. You can change the name that display by changing the title of the document that you uploaded. (this can done at upload time or later in the Media Library.
  • The files listed in the “Download Attachments” section will automatically appear on the page on the right side.  This is possible through the use of the short code in the column to the right.
  • Make sure that click the blue “SAVE” button in the “Download Attachments” section after you upload files or make any changes there, in addition to clicking “Update” or “Publish” for the whole page.  Otherwise you’re files won’t be attached or your changes won’t be saved.
  • The A300631 Rectifier Module converts 480V, 60Hz AC power to DC power at a voltage of approximately 650V. The output of the rectifier module is smoothed by six A300636 parallel-connected capacitors. Line reactor, A300637, reduces the harmonic load on the 480V supply. The A300631 rectifier module consists of a half-controlled SCR / Diode bridge for the purpose of limiting the charging current drawn by the bus capacitors during power up
  • The A300633, A300634 and A300635 Chopper Modules are power converters designed to operate over a DC bus voltage range of 500V to 800V. They are used as components of a power conversion system consisting of several modules sharing a common DC bus filter capacitor
