Bombardier Transportation introduced the world’s first IGBT locomotive converter in 1997.

World-leading ConvertersNow Bombardier offers the world’s most innovative, efficient and reliable solution based on industry standard IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) modules, combin-ing the best power-to-weight ratio with an environment friendly cooling system. It’s one of the reasons why more than 6,400 MITRAC high power traction and auxiliary converters have been sold to date.

Heart – Transforming and Supplying Power

Solutions for every Power System Europe has four major line voltage systems. Asia and North America have additional ones. The MITRAC traction converter product family can be adapted to any power system in any country, and can therefore handle border-crossing operations. Bombardier also offers converters for diesel-electric and dual power (combination of diesel-electric and electric) locomotives to cover non-electrified routes.

Higher Reliability through Modularity MITRAC 3300 traction converters are based on a unique concept that enables extensive standardization. It consists of one basic modular and scalable design that can be adapted to a wide variety of applications and power ranges.

The converters are based on the MITRAC CM-M (Con-verter Module - Modular). Each tap water cooled CM-M contains up to twelve IGBTs, and is able to provide up to six AC input and output phases. The building block structure allows for a wide range of different CM-M arrangements to meet customer requirements.

One of the features of the CM-Ms is a high degree of maintainability combined with easy and rapid removal and replacement. The water valves in the cooling circuit close automatically when the CM-Ms are removed.

The converter configurations shown below illustrate the wide power and feature ranges that are possible: From 2 to 6.4 MW power at the wheel, all combinations of line voltage systems, providing redundancy configurations with up to 75% residual availability in case of failures and provid-ing auxiliary power and / or head end power for train cars.

Auxiliary Converters Bombardier provides both stand-alone auxiliary converters (MITRAC AU 3000 family) with output power of up to 200 kW as well as auxiliary and train supply converters integrated in traction converters which provide up to 1 MW or even more power to supply auxiliary devices and passenger rail cars.

The MITRAC AU 3320 is the newest member of the AU 3000 stand-alone auxiliary converter family. It is a dual auxiliary unit in a multi-purpose electric cabinet. One key advantage of this air cooled auxiliary converter is its compatibility with the traction converter in areas such as control, modular concept and mechanical design.

Pace-setting DrivesThis success is based on Bombardier’s exacting require-ments on the reliability, safety, energy efficiency and low life cycle costs in the entire product range. The drives optimally exploit the converters’ characteristics and are designed to fit within a bogie’s limited space.

Drives for every High Power Application The MITRAC DR 3000 family offers the right drive solution for every high power freight or passenger train. The selection of appropriate suspension type depends on the required vehicle speed and tractive effort: Partly sus-pended drives are best for very high speed trains; simple and robust nose-suspended drives are maintenance-friendly and fit best for freight locomotives requiring high traction effort at moderate speeds; and fully suspended drives, which have the lowest unsprung mass, are suitable for high speed passenger and universal loco-motives applications.

Vehicle Control The TCMS provides all the management and control functions that inject life into the vehicle. It also collects, processes and visualizes diagnostic information.

Drive Control The drive control units (e.g. the DCU2) are integrated in the traction and auxiliary converters. They control and super-vise all functions in the converter, including high perfor-mance adhesion control for traction motors and effective power management such as energy recuperation.

Wireless Communication The MITRAC CC TWCS (Train to Wayside Communication System) extends TCMS by providing seamless wireless communication between train and wayside. It supports upcoming requirements of railway operators, such as remote access to diagnostic data and real-time monitoring, passenger information systems, updating seat reserva-tions, retrieving trip databases and more. The heart of the TWCS is the MCG (Mobile Communication Gateway).

Game-changing ElectronicsMITRAC TCMS (Train Control and Management System) provides train, vehicle and drive control functions such as those for operating, comfort and train diagnostics. The latter facilitates increased efficiency in operation and maintenance, resulting in greater competitiveness for vehicle builders, maintainers and operators. The backbone of the TCMS is the TCN (Train Communication Network), which consists of the MVB (Multifunctional Vehicle Bus) for intra-vehicle communication, and the WTB (Wire Train Bus) for train-wide information exchange.

Leading in IP TechnologyThe MITRAC TCMS now supports the industry-standard IP technology using Ethernet – the latest and most widely used communication technology. The 100 Mbit/s band-width creates opportunities for increased functionality such as on-board video surveillance, extended passenger information systems and voice communication.
