Main benefits
Recovery of waste energy from braking
Line voltage regulation to offset voltage drops
Optimization of the distance between traction substations
Independent rectifier/inverter mode operation
Fast response time
Low maintenance and easy access to all parts
High reliability and robustness
High energy efficiency, minimized losses
Sécheron has been developing and manufacturing power converters for traction power substations for many years. We also offer a reliable, high-performance solution for reversible substations (or double converters). Our EFFICIENT-REV reversible controlled converter is based on the design of our air-cooled rectifier equipped with high-overload thyristor blocks and force-cooled, modular IGBT stacks for energy recovery. EFFICIENT-REV reduces overall energy consumption and is maintainable and durable.
