Electr ic Mult ip le Units

PESA Bydgoszcz SA, employing cutting-edge tech-nologies and relying on its experience in the pro-duction of EMUs, has designed and built electric multiple units of the next generation. First of all ELFs, the first Polish family of rail vehicles, which comply with the requirements of the four collision scenarios.

The most important advantages of the EMU include:

AC drive motors on extreme or middle motor bo-gies, depending on the car configuration, powered by IGBT-based inverters;

modern anti-slip system;microprocessor-based control system;closed-circuit toilets;wide entrances, elevators or entrance ramps, as

well as places for disabled people; extendible steps to facilitate getting on and off the train from plat-forms of different heights.

The modular system gives each client the freedom to freely design the interior. The length of the vehi-cle (number of cars) and its technical parameters can be tailored to the client’s requirements.

Internal and external monitoring systems ensure passengers’ safety, offering views and automatic recording in the driver’s cab. In addition, all the necessary information is communicated to pas-sengers on clear displays and via the automatic audio system. There is also a passenger-driver communication system available to passengers (intercom). Some vehicles feature a system of ad-vertisement broadcast and a passenger counter.

The EMU ELF family is PESA Bydgoszcz SA’s answer to the growing demands of Polish and world markets.

In the last two years PESA’s contracts and deliveries covered almost 100 vehicles of this type.

The Elf (ElectricLowFloor) isa comfortable and very safe vehicle. Its various versions are dedicated to regional (see the pictures above), inter-regional and conurbation (see the picture below) transport services. The materi-als used in construction are at least 80% recyclable, which makes it environmentally-friendly. The ELF family can be composed of 2-8 car sets, and the whole units can be connected with one another in multiple traction. The vehicle platform can be powered with various volt-ages - AC 15kV/25kV and DC 1.5kV/3kV.

The ELF complies with the most most stringent crash-worthiness standards today (the EN 15277 standard), meeting the requirements of the four collision scenarios. There is no more demanding safety standard than that.

Its basic version can reach up to 160 km/h. Optionally, it is possible to increase the speed to 190 km/h.

The vehicle doors in the floor area, at 760 mm, ensure the servicing of 300-960 mm platforms and, with the use of the extendible step, also lower platforms. An ad-vantage of the ELFs’ modular design is the possibility to freely arrange its multi-purpose areas, e.g. for children, for transporting bikes, large luggage, a buffet corner, vending machines, ticket machines, etc.

The vehicle conforms to all the requirements of the TSI PRM specification, which stands for full travelling com-fort for passengers with impaired mobility.

By undertaking increasingly complex technological challeng-es and responding flexibly to clients’ demands, PESA can now offer non-standard products tailored to clients’ spe-cific needs. One of them is the Electric Multiple Unit 33WE of the EN97 series (see the picture below) for Warszawska Kolej Dojazdowa, designed for rendering suburban trans-port services. The vehicle features a multi-voltage power supply system.

This modern two-directional EMU comprises two three-car modules. Spacious driver’s cabs are at both ends of the vehicle, while an additional control panel facilitates driving it when the trainsets have separated. During shunting, a single three-car module can move in both directions at a limited speed. With such a configuration it is possible for

the EMU to ride even through very small track arches of up to 22 m.

The 33WE EMU offers a very high travelling standard. The vehicles are designed for carrying approx. 500 people. The two-stage spring suspension (with air springs in the second-ary suspension stage), air-conditioned interior, and large volume of passenger space all offers comfortable travel-ling conditions. Eight doors, wide clearance and a low floor (500 mm) in the entrance zone make embarking and dis-embarking easier, reducing the duration of vehicle stops at stations and halts. The visual and acoustic passenger infor-mation system, as well as anti-vandal and aesthetic arm-chairs ensure a comfortable and safe journey. The interior and exterior monitoring system with view recording, along with the passenger-vehicle staff communication system significantly boost travelling safety.
