Ventilation control (retrofit) |
 |
evaluated |
 |
|
|
| Traction equipment is cooled by ventilation to prevent over-heating. The energy needed for ventilation can be substantially reduced by demand-controlled operation, i.e. by controlling ventilation power according to actual cooling demand of the motor (or other traction equipment). The technology can be integrated in old stock as a refitting measure in some cases.
