Converters for Trams
KONČAR’s modernisation of tramcars includes integration of new main drive and auxiliary drive converters in the existing tramway vehicles. The result is a completely new and modernised vehicle characterised by high functionality and reliability with reduced maintenance costs.
Converters for Trams
High functionality and reliability with reduced maintenance costs
KONČAR design, manufacture and maintain electronic equipment for electric tramcars. KONČAR converters supply the main and auxiliary drives of trams.
They also offer the modernisation of the tramcars which includes integration of new main drive and auxiliary drive converters in the existing tramway vehicles. The result is a complete new and modernised vehicle which is characterised by high functionality and reliability with reduced maintenance costs.
KONČAR’s range of converters for trams includes: KONTRAC GP170DC, KONTRAC PN35DC and KONTRAC PN25DC.
Propulsion Converter for Trams – KONTRAC GP170DC
KONTRAC GP 170 DC converts 600VDC or 750VDC line voltage into propulsion power to control and drive asynchronous traction motors on tram vehicles. The converter supplies two asynchronous traction motors connected in parallel. The electrical motor drive operates in two modes: traction mode and braking mode.
