Substation
Railway workshop has its own 11/0.4 KV substation. Incoming feeder of 11KV is coming from 66 KV Mohanpura pulia
Jodhpur. Main Equipments of substation:-
— Insulators— Metering and Indicating Instruments— Instrument Transformer— Capacitor banks
Winding Section
All types of machine (AC and DC) used in the workshop are rewinded.
Normally periodic overhauling of the alternators is done here rewinding also when the field coil or armature coils get damaged.
They have designs, winding diagrams of every type of windings used in the workshop, behalf of these winding diagrams they do rewind of machines.
They have following procedure of doing so:-– Cleaning the dirt or dust by highly pressured air.– Checking of faulty connections or faults.
Specification of Megger
Equipment for checking the insulation level of any equipment. Main Purpose of Megger:-– Removing of faulty winding.– Cleaning of remaining structure by kerosene.– After this they connect the whole machine and check the whole working condition.
Vacuum Insulating Plant
• This plant is used for varnish paint on winding.• Varnish paint is done to save the winding from short circuiting
means it provides required insulation to the winding both inside and outside of the winding.
Operation of VPI
Step1: Open valve 1, 3, 6. Close valve 2, 4, 5, Start vacuum pump Step2: Close valve 1, stop vacuum pump. Step3: Open valve 4, varnish will start flowing into the VPI, Tank Close valve 4 when the electric
component is completely submerged in the varnish. Step4: Release vacuum in VPI tank. Open valve 1, 5. Step5: Close valve 3 and 6. Start the compressor build pressure in air tank 3 and 6. Stop air
compressor when pressure gauge shows 3 to 4 kilogram pressure. Step6: Open varnish to storage tank. Open valve 1, 2, 4 and keep these valves open till the VPI
tank empties. Step7: Close valve 1, 2, 4 in series wait for 15 minutes. Open the top lower take out the
component. Put the component in the oven for curing. Step8: Cure the oven for 8 hours at 1200C and for 4 hours at 1500C.S
Air Conditioning Shop
• Introduction• POH Schedule of Air-Conditioning Coaches• Automatic Pump Down• Roof Mountain Packages for Ac coaches
Introduction
Air conditioning means to make air fid to promote comfort and effecting or to ensure proper operation of delicate equipment or to help manufacturing operation more often it involves following operation:-
– To supply duty clean fresh air to keep low order concentration of carbon dioxide and smoke with in low limits.
– To cool the air in summer and to heat in winter in order to maintain proper temperature inside the premises of air conditions.
– To control the humidity of the air conditions. – To obtain air movement without producing annoying draught.
POH Schedule of Air-conditioned Coaches
On arrival a shop first they note down the defects and deficiencies.
The all equipments like compressor & it’s motors condenser including liquid receiver cum dehydrator and condenser monitors evaporator units & its motor ,battery charger cum pre cooling transformer ,battery ,battery box etc….
Before overhauling, measure the insulation resistance of all the electrical equipment such as alternator, motor and wiring to know the condition of the equipments also after POH also test the writing of the insulation.
Automatic Pump Down
The prevention of refrigerant migration back to the compressor and the isolation of the refrigerant, change in the condenser/receiver had been automated by the incorporation by an automatic pump down facility. Thus when the fresh air ambient thermostat stops the cooling of refrigerant in the system is pumped into the compressor and receiver with the reenergizing of the liquid line solenoid value preventing flow of refrigerant back to compressor, the system sucks down through the low pressure cut out switch. Most of the refrigerant change is then isolated in the condenser and receiver.
Roof Mountain Packages for AC Coaches
Train and Lightning
• Introduction• Brushless Alternator• Fan Section
Introduction
• Railways being the public carrier bound to ensure that the passengers are carried not only special safety and punctuality but also comfortably. In view of this the lightning in coaches is an important electrical amenity with the steady increase in traffic, passengers expect cent percent performance of electrical fittings.
Brushless Alternator
It is the backbone of the speed of railways. It has very rugged structure, no carbon brush
problem, least maintenance, no winding on the rotor.
Its main feature is that in this no windingon the rotor is available.
Both field and armature winding are on the stator. Field winding is divided in two big slots 180 mechanically apart and the armature winding is available in small slots distributed on whole of the periphery.
Advantages of Brushless Alternator
Brushless Design, No brushes or slip rings to fail No rotating windings Non-Electrical unitized rotor shaft Large Diameter stator wire Lower I²R winding loss. Cooler stator operation High amperage output. High mechanical to electrical efficiency, saves fuel. Replaceable diodes. Positive, Negative and Isolated ground options Integral alternator and bearing housing casting providing permanent
bearing alignment & oversize grease reservoir.
Fan Section
• Indian Railways used 400 mm and 300 mm Brush Less Direct Current motor (BLDC) fans which are operated by 110V dc in the coaches.
Fan Section
Accessories:-– Regulator– Fuse Protection– Gimbal Ring
Maintenance:- The aim in maintenance is to reduce or compensate for wear and tear in operation so that the installation continues to function well and give good service.
Running Maintenance:-– Excessive noise and vibrations.– Excessive sparking/blackening of commutator and excessive wear of carbon brushes.– Inadequate air delivery.– Poor insulation.
