Distribution And Traction Transformers

Product Description

Distribution- and traction transformers - Tractronic®

Designing and manufacturing traction transformers for rail operators and train manufacturers worldwide, Siemens produces transformers that increase train efficiency and performance - handle highest ratings in a minimum of available space - serve local content demands for worldwide application - afford maximum reliability and flexibility.

Compact, light and efficient

Siemens develops and produces traction transformers for rolling stock applications of all relevant ratings and voltage levels. The focus is on maximum reliability, economic efficiency and safety  and ensuring that the transformers are perfectly in line with the customer requirements.

Design options

• power ratings  frequency, capacity and voltage
• size, weight and place of installation
• dissipation and short-circuit voltages
• losses and impedance voltage characteristics
• driving patterns and medium-frequency performance
• materials and technologies to meet environmental requirements (e.g. ester coolant)    

Leveraging data for maximum transformer performance

Siemens Transformers offers the opportunity to track the transformers in operation. Operators can not only monitor but optimizetrans former performance. Monitoring and data analysis are the important factors for digitalization of traction transformer for rolling stock applications.

A new generation ofsensors monitors transformer health

A modular multisensory system continuously monitors the status of the transformer and modifies operation behavior according tothe results of an onboard optimization algorithm. The Siemens monitoring systemleverages a new generation of sensors. These sensors transmit data to a local,remote or cloud-based control system. After data processing, the actors will if necessary – receive commands for correcting the operation behavior.

Benefit from the performance data of other traction transformers

Economical and technical information of each traction transformer is updated online and collected to optimize all similar transformers in operation. Our real-time monitoring system optimizes cost of operation cost and maintenance intervals, increasing energy and economic efficiency.
