CLASS 10M5 TRAINSET – Transwerk

Description of Electrical Circuits and Systems

1 INTRODUCTION The Class 10M5 Trainset is an upgraded version of the Class 10M2 & 10M3 Trainset. The Class 10M5 traction system is the same as a conventional Class 5M2A microprocessor motor coach. The standard Class 5M2A Motor Alternator or Motor Generator provides the auxiliary power supply that is now being controlled by the Coach Controller to improve the general control of the Motor Alternator or Generator set.

This document will explain the auxiliary control systems for the 10M5 Trainsets. Also included in this document is the explanation of the 10M5 Traction Control Systems with the conventional Class 5M2A Microprocessor.

6 Aux & HT Compartment Earthling Interlocks

6.1 Introduction.

The new Class 10M5 Motor Coaches have been fitted with a modern isolation and earthing system incorporating key controlled interlocking devices.

Separate switches and keys have been provided for the Auxiliary Supply and Traction Supply systems.

The new interlocking system has been developed with the following features.

The Isolation and Earthing switch has to be unlocked and locked using the new Drivers Control Key (DCK) that is used to unlock the Single Handle Master Controller (SHMC).

When the appropriate system has been isolated and earthed, a Master key will be released that is used to unlock the respective High Voltage Compartment. The isolation switch cannot be operated until the Master key is returned to its original position.

This Master key is held captive while the HV door is unlocked.

A Slave key may be removed from the HV door bolt lock to lock the HV door in the open position thus preventing door closure by an unauthorized person.

As the new system is key controlled, as compared to heavy linkage control used on present systems, the system is light and easy to operate.

A Full Operating Description is explained in Chapter 2 of document Isolating and Earthing System for Class 10Mx Motor Coaches Operating Manual.

7 Battery Circuit Operation and Protection ([4011]) a) The batteries provide power for the following;

1. Control circuits - power circuit may be sequenced from batteries if sufficient air supply is available.

2. Auxiliary compressor 3. Coach Emergency lights 4. Coach sliding doors 5. Public Address 6. Cab lights 7. Tail and side lights

b) The battery is a sealed lead acid unit consisting of eight 12 volt units giving a no load voltage of 96 volts. Each motor coach is provided with a set of batteries, which are installed in the equipment room.

c) All the batteries on a trainset may be switched ON or OFF from any cab when all control keys are OFF by means of =4-S101 [4022]. When a DCK control key is ON the batteries cannot be switched from a non-leading cab. This is prevented by NLCR =4-K115 [4022] contact.

When the battery ON train line is energised, B.ON =4-K101 [4024] and =4-K103 [4025] are energised. The battery is connected to the battery bus L4. [4014] When the battery OFF train line is energised then relay B.OFF =4-K102 [4024] de-energises =4-K103 [4025], and the batteries are disconnected from L4 bus.

d) All batteries feed the trainset L4 battery bus, but are prevented from being connected in parallel by means of a diode =4-V102 [4014].

e) The batteries are charged by the battery charger, which is powered by the Motor Alternator or Motor Generator. [4012] All battery chargers supply L4 bus. Therefore L4 bus will be live while any MA is running and all batteries contactors =4-K103 [4014] are OFF.

=4-S101 Battery ON & OFF

f) The Coach Controller monitors the battery current by means of DCCT =4-B101 [4014] and voltage by means of voltage transducer =4-B105. [4016] The battery will be disconnected by switching =4-K103 [4014] OFF if voltage or currents are out of limits. This is accomplished by energising relay =4-K105 [4024] which de-energises =4-K103 [4014]. The coach controller will reconnect the battery to the bus when conditions are safe by energising relay =4-K104 [4025] to close =4-K103 [4014].

g) If A and B bus lines are OFF for thirty minutes, then the Coach Controller will switch the trainset batteries off by energising relay =4-K117 [4029] which energises train line 47 momentarily.

7. Pantograph and Auxiliary Compressor Control ([4031]) a) When the batteries are ON, and the Coach Controller is operational, the

pantograph of a single motor coach may be raised by pushing PANTO RAISE, =4-S103 [4033].

b) To raise all the pantographs on a trainset, the DCK must be switched ON. This will permit train lines 4 or 5 to be energised from the master controller. The reverser handle must then be placed in the FORWARD or REVERSE position. Relay =4-K106 [4032] will then be energised, and will permit =4-S103 [4032] to energise train line 9 to raise the trainset pantographs. [4035]

c) Pressure governor ACG (=4-B102) [4036] monitors the pantograph reservoir air pressure. [4036] If there is sufficient air pressure (>480 kPa), the Coach Controller will energise the Panto Raise Valve (PRV) (=4-Y101). [4035]

d) If the air pressure in the panto reservoir is too low (<480 kPa) i.e. ACG (=4-B102) [4036] is closed, the Coach Controller will first run the auxiliary compressor (=4-M101) [4038] by energising =4-K107 [4038] contactor. The Coach Controller will run the auxiliary compressor for 90 seconds and will attempt to raise the panto by energising panto raise valve =4-Y101 [4035]. When the pantograph is raised and the MA or MG started and 110VDC is detected on B-Bus or L2-Bus [2023] & [4072] the auxiliary compressor will be stopped by de-energising contactor =4-K107 [4037]. Else if the air supply is sufficient (>640 kPa), the coach controller will then re-energise the panto raise valve and stop the compressor.

e) If the Fault Lockout Relay (FLR) is tripped it will not be possible to energise the Panto Raise Valve. [4034]

f) Pushing panto lower will lower all pantographs no matter what position the reverser handle is in by energising PLV (=4-Y101) and train line 10. [4035]

g) If a fault occurs in the traction circuit of a motor coach, the traction controller will energise the Panto Trip Relay (PTR) [3085], which will de-energise the PLV (=4-Y101) [4034] on that coach only once LS1 has opened. Train line 10 is not energised in this case.

h) If the auxiliary compressor runs for more than 20 minutes without attaining 640-kPa air pressure or due to a faulty pressure governor the Coach Controller will automatically switch it off and attempt to raise the pantograph.

i) If Panto Lower push button =4-S104 [4034] is energised while the auxiliary compressor is running, the Coach Controller will stop the compressor.

j) In a non-leading cab, the pantograph control button is disabled by NLCR contact =4-K115 [4033].

8. Auxiliary Power Supply Control.

a) Introduction

Traditionally, the Motor Alternator or Motor Generator control circuit was powered from the 3000-volt supply via dropping resistors. The control system was simple and yet complicated. There was no system monitoring which lead to difficult fault finding.

The new control system is implemented with the existing Coach Controller powered from the coach batteries. All equipment is now controlled and monitored by the Coach Controller. To improve the control, some components have been added.

The status of all equipment can be seen with LED indicators on the Coach Controller. The entire control system can be tested when the Auxiliary HV is open. Improved System monitoring with fault lockout is also provided. The MA or MG may be stopped and started by means of a small switch. Aux HT Frame for MA or MG

[2028] the Voltage Regulator Start Relay (VRSR) =2-K104 [2046] & [2027] is energised. This relay energises the Voltage Regulator (VR) =2-A104 [2027] through diode =2-V104 [2027] and the normally close contacts of the VROUT =2-K103 [2027] relay via wire 20404. The VRSR relay is supplied from batteries via MA or MG Control MCB =2-Q102 [2045].

o Diode =2-V103 [2026] prevents the battery power to energise wire RP.

o Diode =2-V104 [2027] prevent RP when the MA or MG is running to energise wire 20401 that is supplied form batteries.

• When the supply to the VR has been confirmed via wire 20411, then the MA Main Contactor (MAMC) [2021] is closed when OSS, MAOL and AHVDCIL contacts are Normally Closed [2045]. The MA Main Contactor close status is confirmed by the MAMC check back signal [2044].

• The MA will start to run and to generate 110-volts. The MA Output RP is now monitored by the Coach Controller via wire RP [2032], as well as the MA Over Voltage Relay (MAOVR) via wire 20305 [2033].

o The Voltage Regulator regulates Z & ZZ field through the VROUT relay normally close contact =2-K103 [2026] to maintain an 110V DC output.

• Once RP is confirmed, and the MAOVR is not tripped, then the MA Starting Contactor (MASC) [2023], [2044] is energised. This is confirmed by the MASC check back signal [2044].

• After a short delay, the Alternator Contactor (AC) [2034] is energized.

• After a short delay the MA Trip Relay (MATR) [2047] is energized, which in turn de-energizes the MA Fault Indication train line 30 [6133].

• The system is now running normally.

f) Control System Modes ([2021] – [2041]) The Control System may be in any one of a number of Control Modes or States. The system can only be in one state at a time.

No State Functionality

1 INITIALIZATION All system control parameters are initialized. When completed, control Is passed to MONITOR State

2 MONITOR The System is monitoring the line voltage. When line volts increase above 1850 volts and the MA RUN/STOP switch is in the RUN position, the system moves to VR_START State after a time delay.

IF VR_CUTOUT signal is present, then control will be passed to VR_CUTOUT state when line volts increase above 1850 volts.

3 VR START The VRS Contactor is energised, and the VRS Check Back signal is monitored. The system will remain in this state until the CB_VRS signal is received. Pushing Auxiliary reset will move control back to MONITOR State.

When the CB_VRS is received control is passed to MAMC_CLOSE state.

No State Functionality

4 VR_CUTOUT THE MAOL reset coil is momentarily energized together with the VROUT contactor. The VROUT contactor will provide a holding contact.

When the MAOL reset coil is de-energized, control is passed to the VR_START State.

5 MAMC_CLOSE The MAMC is energized, and when the CB_MAMC is received and RP is present, and MAOVR is normal, then control is passed to MASC_CLOSE State.

If the CB_MAMC, or RP are not received within a time limit, or MAOL or OSS should occur, then control will be passed to MA_LOCKOUT

6 MASC_CLOSE The MASC is energized, and when the CB_MAMC is received, control is passed to AC_CLOSE State.

If the CB_MASC is not received within a time limit, or MAOL or OSS should occur, or RP should disappear, then control will be passed to MA_LOCKOUT.

7 AC_CLOSE The Alternator Contactor is closed. When BUS B is detected, control is passed to MA_RUN State.

If AOL, or MAOVR should occur, then control will passed to ALT_TRIP state.

8 MA_RUN This is the final state, and the MA will be running with 110-volts being supplied to the train.

The MATR contractor is energized which in turn de-energizes the MA fault Indication Train Line 30.

If either RP, MAOL, Over Speed, CB_MAMC or CB_MASC input should be lost, control will be passed to MA_LOCKOUT state.

If AOL, or MAOVR should occur, then control will passed to ALT_TRIP state.

If the Line Volts should become less than 1850-volts, control will be passed to VOLT_DIP state.

In this state, the fault counters are reset to zero.

9 VOLT_DIP If the line volts return to above 1850 within a time limit, then control is passed back to MA_RUN state.

If the Line volts remains low, then control is passed to the MONITOR state, and the MA will be shutdown.

10 ALT_TRIP THE AC Contactor is de-energised.

When the AOL and MAOVR signals have been restored to normal, and Auxiliary reset is energized, then control is passed to AC_CLOSE state.

On the third occurrence of such a fault without attaining MA_RUN state, then control will be passed to the MA_OUT state.

11 MA_LOCKOUT All contactors are de-energized, and the MA is shutdown.

If all monitored fault signals are normal, and auxiliary reset is energized, then control is passed to MONITOR state, and a start up sequence will be repeated.

On the third occurrence of such a fault without attaining MA_RUN state, then control will be passed to the MA_OUT state.

12 MA_OUT When control is passed to this state, than the MA will be LOCKED OUT and will not be able to be restarted until the correct Lockout Reset Sequence has been implemented.

When Auxiliary Reset is energized in this state, then the MA Fault indication light will flash to serve as indication that this state has been attained. (This requires that no MA control circuits of any another coaches on the same train are tripped.)

13 MA_TEST When the MA Test button is pressed, control is passed to the MA_TEST state. Each component controlled by the Controller will be tested.

g) Fault Protection Scheme, Lock Out Reset and Auto Test Procedure

Faults are subdivided into MA Run and Alternator. When a fault is detected, it must be reset with the Auxiliary Reset Push Button. After the third time that the fault has occurred without a successful start up, the MA will be shut down and locked out.

h) Fault LOCKOUT Reset Procedure

When the MA / MG has been locked out, and even if the Coach Controller is restarted it can only be reset by applying the procedure below.

• Open the Auxiliary HV Compartment.

• Press the MA / MG =2-S103 [2014] Test Button. This will initiate the automatic test procedure, and reset the lockout mode. The Test Button is found on the Aux HT Frame.

• Close the Auxiliary HV and restart the MA / MG.

i) Auto Test Procedure

When the MA Test button =2-S103 [2014] located in the auxiliary HV on the HV frame is pressed, control is passed to the MA_TEST state. Each component controlled by the Controller will be tested. While each component is being energised and de-energised in turn, the Line voltmeter will sweep to max volts and back to zero.

As each component is energised, the appropriate check back signals may be viewed on the Controller Digital input card.

Simultaneously, the MA fault light will flash. (No other MA equipment on the train may be tripped; otherwise this light will be permanently energised.

j) MA / MG RUN/STOP Switch

For the MA / MG to run, this switch ==2-S104 [2047] must be in the RUN position.

The MA / MG may be stopped at any time by placing this switch in the STOP position.

When the switch is moved back to the RUN position, the MA will restart automatically if all conditions are normal.

This switch must be left in the RUN position at all times for normal in service operation.

k) Abnormal Start Up Sequence (Voltage Regulator Cut OUT) ([2021] –

[2041])

The start up sequence is the same as with the VR Cut IN except for the following.

• To cut out the Voltage Regulator from the control circuit the VROUT Relay =2-K103 [2028] must be energised.

o When the VR Out switch is ON a digital signal is provided to the Coach Controller via wire 20412 [2028] & [2048].

o With the VR OUT Signal present the Coach Controller will energise the MAOL Coil momentarily. This will complete the circuit for the VROUT relay =2-K103 [2028] to be energised via wire 20208 through the blocking diode =2-V102 [2017]. To keep the VROUT relay energised a retaining circuit is required. This is accomplished through a VROUT relay =2-K103 [2027] contact.

o With the VROUT relay permanently energised the following contacts is affected.

Buss power or RP Power is prevented to the Voltage Regulator [2027]

MA or MG Z & ZZ Field is disconnected from the Voltage regulator, but reconnected to the VR Out resistor =2-VRCOSR [2026].

Also the FIT Current transformer is also connected to the Z & ZZ field of the MA through the VROUR relay contact [2024].

As long as the VROUT Switch is switched ON the above start up sequence will be followed when the MA or MG is re-started.

l) Motor Alternator Over Voltage Relay ([2031])

1. Purpose

The purpose of the Motor Alternator Over Voltage Relay (MAOVR) is to detect when the output voltage of the MA is greater than 135 volts. When this occurs, the MAOVR will open the alternator contactor to remove the high voltage from the trainset.

2. Operation

a) The MAOVR is connected in series with the supply for the Alternator Contactor (AC). [2032]

Page 47: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

Class 10M5 Description of Electrical Circuits (Chapter 1)

10M5TWKCircuitDescriptions-2005-09-16.doc (W2002) 9/16/2005 Page 43

b) On MA or MG start up, the AC Contactor will be energised when the output voltage is approximately 90 volts. The MAOVR is now in ON mode.

c) If the output voltage increases to more than the trip value (>135 volts), the AC will be opened, and the MAOVR will remain in TRIP mode until the output voltage has reduced to less than 60 volts.

d) If the MAOVR is in TRIP mode, it can be reset by pressing the TOP reset push button on the MAOVR.

e) Pressing the red TEST push button, and then reset again with the RESET push button may also test the system.

m) When MAOVR is in TRIP mode, train line 30 will be energised to give indication that a trip has occurred. [6133]

n) Three LED’s are provided to indicate:-

that the MA has output - SUPPLY,

that the MAOVR is in the ON mode, and

That the MAOVR is in the TRIP mode.

In any event were the MAOVR has tripped the Auxiliary Rest Button must also be pressed to enable the Coach Controller to energise the AC Contactor.

9. Main Compressor Control ([4041]) a) With the Motor Alternator running, C bus will be energised, and the main

compressor circuit will be energised. [4042]

b) The Coach Controller controls the main compressor.

c) Compressor Governor (CG) monitors the main air pressure and energises train line 28 between the set points of 480kPA and 640kPa. [4047]

d) If the compressor over load is normal, and compressor synchronisation control train line 28 is energised, then the Coach Controller will energise the compressor contactor (CC), and the Compressor over load holding coil (COLHC) for half a second. The compressor will then run.

e) When train line 28 de-energises, [4046] the controller will de-energise the contactor, and energise the automatic drain valve (ADV) (where installed) for half a second. The Auto Drain Valve is energised for the first three times after the system has started up. Thereafter, the valve is energised every 15th time the compressor stops. This is to prevent the main compressor cycling continuously if the drain valve discharges too much air. [4045]

f) If the compressor overload trips, the controller will stop the compressor by de-energising CC. [4043]

Main Compressor Governor =4-CG [4047]

10. DCK and GCK Functions ([4121]) a) The various functions of the trainset are controlled by means of a driver’s key

- DCK [3107] and a guard’s key – GCK [4127]. Certain functions are possible such as starting a motor coach and energising coach lights without any keys. This allows cleaning staff to carry out their duties without hindrance. (DCK key switch BOTTOM & GCK key switch TOP)

b) Interlocking is provided to prevent more than one DCK from being active on a trainset at a time. This is accomplished by NCLR contact =4-K115 [4122] & [4132].

c) The GCK is however always active regardless of the number of GCK keys on, within a trainset.

d) The DCK activates all the functions of the GCK =4-K112 [4126], on the motor coach where it is inserted except for the Guard’s speedometer unit, and the public address system =4-K111. [4128]

e) The control keys energise DCK and GCK relays, which control the appropriate circuits. The DCK [3107] energises the Leading Cab relays =4-K108 [4122], =4-K110 [4124], =4-K112 [4125] and =4-K116 [4156].

f) Relay =4-K112 [4125] energises the repeater signal for train line 13 [4132]

g) The guard's control key switch energises the =4-K113, =4-K118 and =4-K111 relays.[4126]

h) In a non-leading cab, train line 13 energises the Non Leading Cab Relays =4-K115 and repeater relay =4-K114 [4131]. These relays isolate non-leading cab functions when a DCK is ON.

c) If the exhauster over load is normal, the Oil Level Switch (where fitted) is normal, =4-Q112 is closed, and DCK is ON, then the Coach Controller will energise the exhauster contactor (EXHC), and the exhauster over load holding coil (EXHOLHC) for half a second. The exhauster will then run. [4054]

d) The controller will also provide a negative for the weak field contactor (EXHWF), so that this contactor may be energised when exhauster weak field is requested via the SHMC and train line 16 is energised. [4052], [4057].

e) The controller will stop the exhauster if any of the following occur;

exhauster over load trips, then U303 will be de-energised,

DCK is OFF, or =4-Q112 [4054] is tripped, then U302 and U303 will be de-energised,

the Oil Level Switch opens, then U302 and U303 will be de-energised

12. Traction Blowers and Traction Ventilation Control ([2051]) a) With the Motor Alternator running, C bus will be energised.

b) The Traction Blowers are controlled directly by the DCK to energise the repeater relays, which energises the blower and fan circuits via relay contact =4-K109 [2052]. The Traction Blowers are also interlocked with the Fire System Relay =9-K102 [4123] & [9063]. This relay will be energised when the fire system is normal.

c) With the 10M5 design Motor Blower 1&2 is also used to pressurise the Auxiliary and HT Compartment. Due to this wire 20505 are used to de-energise and energise the OK signal to the driver indication (Traction Ventilation [6168]) [2054] panel and traction controller [3023] & [3026] respectively when Motor Blower 1&2 is running when switched on by means of the DCK key some were on a trainset.

d) Because the driver’s indication panel is moved to the desk position, the indication lights for these blowers and fan will be ON when the fans are OFF or the appropriate MCB’s are tripped.

e) Two Current Transducers monitor the Traction Blower current. If the blowers are running, then “blowers OK’ signals are send to the Traction Controller and the Blower Fault Indication lights on the Driver’s Indication Panel will be extinguished. The two current transducers are =2-B101 [2052] for Motor Blower 1&2, =2-B102 [2057] for Motor Blower 3&4. Blower 1&2 current transducer is also used to send a pressurising Fan OK.

b) Each coach consists of 4 ventilation circuits. For a trailer coach, each circuit comprises of two fans, and for a motor coach, two of the circuits consist of one fan each.

c) The fans are equally supplied from A bus and B bus to distribute the load over two motor alternators.

d) The current in circuits one and three are monitored by =7-B101 [7012], =7-B201 [7032] and circuits two and four are monitored by =7-B102 [7017], =7-B202 [7037] The coach controller supplies 24 volts to power the DCCTs.

e) The temperature in the coach is monitored by means of a temperature monitor, =7-B103 [7029] which is situated in one of the monsoon ventilator ducts. =7-B203 [7049]. The coach controller supplies 24 volts to power the temperature monitor.

f) The Coach Controller monitors the temperature, and switches the blower contactors accordingly. [7011] – [7016], [7041] – [7045].

g) For the fans to operate A and B bus must be energised, and the DCK must be ON (Train line 13 energised). If any of these inputs to the controller are OFF, the fans will not be energised. In this way;

1. The load is distributed between two motor coaches.

2. Fans will not run unnecessarily when the trainset is powered up but unmanned.

3. If a Motor Alternator fails, then the fans will not operate thus reducing the load on the remaining Motor Alternator.

h) The operation of the fans is staggered relative to their position, so that the air may be evenly circulated within the coach.

i) The temperatures are set as follows

VENTILATION CIRCUIT

ON Temperature OFF Temperature

VENT1 10 deg C 9 deg C

VENT2 14 deg C 13 deg C

VENT3 18 deg C 17 deg C

VENT4 22 deg C 21 deg C

17. Coach Lights control ([6011] – [6161]) a) The Coach Controller controls the coach lighting system.

b) The coach fluorescent lights are divided into three circuits;

1. Emergency lights fed from battery L4 bus.

2. Half lights fed from A bus

3. Half lights fed from B bus

c) In this way the load is distributed between two motor coaches.

d) When LIGHTS ON is switched ON =6-S101 [6011] in the cab, the lights ON relay =6-K101 [6011] is energised, which energises train line 19 and the lights on indicator =6-H101 [6017].

The Coach Controller monitors train line 19 as well as A and B bus. If Train Line 19 is ON then the controller will energise the emergency lights relay =6-K104 [6016]. If A or B bus are ON then the main lights relay =6-K103 [6015] will be energised.

e) By switching LIGHTS OFF =6-S101 [6012] will energise relay =6-K102 [6013] via train line 39. Relay =6-K102 [6013] NC-contact will open and de-energise relay =6-K101 [6011] and Train Line 19 [6013].

f) When panto lower is depressed, the lights are automatically switched off by energising the lights OFF relay =6-K102 [6013] in the cab via train line 10 and diode =6-V102 [6013]

g) Only one lights ON relay need be energised to energise train line 19. The lights may be switched OFF from any cab via train line 39. [6013]

h) In an unmanned cab, the light control circuit is disabled by repeat relay contact =4-K114 [6011]. When a DCK is turned ON. When a GCK (or DCK) is switched ON then the repeat relay contact is bypassed with a GCK contact =4-K113 [6012]. In this way coach lights may only be operated from cabs that are manned.

i) If a Coach Controller fails to operate, and the SYSCK relay is not energised inside the Coach Controller then, Train line 38 will supply a negative return

• These controllers will only be operational when a Driver Control Key (DCK), or the Guard Control Key (GCK) is switched ON.

• Relay contacts =4-K114 [5012] (Repeater Relay) & =4-K113 [5014] (DCK & GCK Relay) & =4-K108 [4073] (DCK Relay) through wire 40705 will be closed and energised when a Divers Control Key (DCK) is activated.

• Through wire 40705 that is energised by =4-K108 [4073] (DCK Relay) the controller will recognise that a Driver is present in the cab.

• Relay contacts =4-K113 [5012] (DCK & GCK Relay) & =4-K111 [5014] (GCK Relay) will be closed when a Guards Control Key (GCK) is activated.

• Through wire 50102 that is energised by =4-K111 (GCK Relay) [5014] the controller will recognise that a Guard is present in the cab.

• Only when a Drivers Control Key (DCK) is switched ON some where on the Trainset, will a unmanned Motor Coach door control circuit be active without activating the Door Control push buttons by means of repeater relay contact =4-K114 [5012].

NOTE:

• When a Guards Control Key (GCK) is switched ON before a Drivers Control Key (DCK) only the Motor Coach where the Guards Control Key (GCK) is ON will close and release the doors. Also ONLY this Motor Coach will sound the Warbler.

• This Door Warbler Controller can not detect if a door is open. HOWEVER, it can detect if the signal is given to close or release the doors train lines (TL24, TL25, TL26, and TL27).

• The time delays are designed to allow the doors sufficient time to close.

19.3 Operation for a fully manned trainset

Door Close is activated by the GUARD or DRIVER by means of door close push buttons.

1. The Driver or Guard must switch on their Control Keys to allow operation of the doors from the leading cab or trailing cab.

2. In an unmanned cab, the door control push [5014] – [5016] buttons will be

energised but due to no key recognising (DCK or GCK) by the Door Warbler Controller Door Close or Release push button operations will not be acknowledge.

3. The Driver or the Guard is able to close the doors by pressing the desired push

button either on the right-hand or the left-hand Side or the push button on the Door Warbler it self.

The following timing diagram will show the process in detail: Train set closing the doors A or B Side or both sides Warbler Sounds Traction inhibit Door Close A or B Side (TL24 or TL26)

19.5 Traction Inhibit.

1. If the Guard, Driver or the Leading Motor Coach is closing the Doors Traction inhibit will be activated on the Leading Motor Coach. This function is used to prevent the Driver from Powering before the doors are given sufficient time to close. The above time diagram explains the operation of the Traction Inhibit.

2. In front of the driver where the old Bell push button was installed, a new control box

is installed with three functions. • Bell Push Button for the Guard or Driver. • Guard’s Control Key. • Traction Inhibit Fault Indication and Traction Inhibit Override.

3. The Traction Inhibit Fault Indication will only be ON when the Master Controller is

moved to Notch 1 and the Traction Inhibit is illuminated on the Door Warbler. (Normal Operation).

4. BUT if the Traction Inhibit Light is OFF on the Door Warbler Controller and the

Traction Inhibit Fault Light is still ON when the Master Controller is in any Notch, a fault has occurred. At this stage the traction inhibit can be overridden if the Master Controller is moved to Notch 1 and the Traction Inhibit Push button is pressed and released. BUT if the Master Controller is moved to notch OFF and moved back to notch 1 with the Traction Inhibit Fault Light still ON in front of the Driver the same actions must be repeated as explained above. THIS IS NOT THE NORMAL OPERATION AND MUST BE REPORTED TO THE FAULT PERSONELL.

19.6 Trainset Power Testing.

1. With this door control system, it is not possible to isolate the door control circuits from the Driver’s Control. Consequently, when a driver performs a power test of the trainset, the warbler will sound, and the doors will be closed. This is not a good situation to occur within the confines of a station, as passengers will be confused and could lead to panic.

2. To permit the driver to perform a power test without door control taking place, the

following procedure must be implemented.

Switch on control in normal way Apply brakes Select forward or reverse Push in and hold Auxiliary reset Perform power test and notch off Release auxiliary control push button

Note:

If the auxiliary reset is released before the master controller is returned to OFF position, then a door close cycle will be initiated.

19.7 Door Mode Control

1. The door control push buttons and relays are energised via, wire 40302 and MCB =4-Q105 [4033] with relay =4-K113 [5014] the door circuit is energised when a DCK or GCK is switched ON.

2. The close push buttons are =5-S101 [5014] and =5-S103 [5015], and the release buttons are =5-S102 [5014] and =5-S104 [5105].

3. The door Warbler is energised by the respective door control train lines. The Warbler keep the closed or release train lines high until the mode is changed via the switches, or the GCK and DCK in all cabs are switched OFF.

4. When the pantograph is lowered and the DCK or GCK is ON, then the door train lines are energised via train line 10 and diodes =5-V103 [5015] and =5-V104 [5014] . The doors will then be closed. When the control keys are removed, the door train lines will be de-energised, and the doors will release. This ensures that the train doors are closed when the train is stabled.

5. If the power had to fail, so that the battery bus is de-energised, the doors will be released.

b) These coaches are fitted with the Faiverley air-piston screw drive door system.

c) Each door control unit comprises the following components;

Page 66: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

10M5TWKCircuitDescriptions-2005-09-16.doc (W2002) 9/16/2005 Page 62

1. One air piston. 2. One lock mechanism. 3. Three solenoid valves – Emergency Release Valve, Door Open

Valve, Door Close Lock Valve. 4. Two positioning sensors for the doors – Door Close Sensor and a

Door Open Sensor

d) The Coach Controller separately controls each door. The controller monitors and controls the following;

1. Door control train lines 24 for Right hand side, and 26 for Left hand side.

2. Train line 23, which is energised by the traction controller and Low Speed relay when the train speed is above 5 kph. [5022]

3. The main air supply pressure by means of a pressure switch =4-B103 [4076] (for a motor coach) and =4-B201 [4087] (For a trailer coach)

4. The door positions sensors to determine whether the door is in the open or closed position. These switches are normally closed, and open when the position is detected.

5. Emergency push buttons. These push buttons are used to open or close the door, and to release the door in an emergency if the speed of the train is less than 5 kph. Two buttons are situated at each door. The two switches are normally closed and connected in series. [5045] – (For a Motor Coach) and [5064], [5068], [5086] – (For a Trailer Coach).

6. Obstruction is determine by a time-out timer in the Coach controller software. For instance if the door does not close in a given time the coach controller will react as if there is an obstruction at that specific door.

7. The controller energises the three solenoid valves FAST, SLOW, and OPEN.

8. An input signal is also provided for a six-door coach (Trailer Coach), which will invoke further control, by the coach controller.[5032]

9. The system has made provision for door closing alarms [5024] and local door alarms [5044], [5047]. These have not been implemented in the present specification.

e) The normal door control is performed as follows;

1. At system start up, the controller waits for the LOW AIR input to be de-energised (at 320 kPa).

Page 67: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

10M5TWKCircuitDescriptions-2005-09-16.doc (W2002) 9/16/2005 Page 63

2. The position of the door needs to be determined. If the door is either open or closed, nothing happens. If the door is neither open nor closed as detected by the sensors, then the door is closed slowly. When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the door is released. The controller then waits for an instruction.

3. If the door is closed and the emergency push button is pressed, or the door is opened slightly, then the OPEN valve is energised, and the door powers open and releases in the open position after a time delay. The time delay is introduced to discourage passengers from continuously opening and closing the doors when the doors are released.

4. If the door is closed and the door close train line is energised, the FAST valve is energised, and pressure is applied to the piston. As long as the train line remains high, the door will remain closed and locked. The locking function id performed by means of a small air piston.

5. If the door is open, and the emergency button is depressed, or the door is closed slightly, then the FAST valve is energised, and the door starts to close. When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the door is released and remains closed. The piston has a mechanical damper to cushion the door closed.

6. If the door is open, and the close train line is energised, then the FAST valve is energised, and the door starts to close When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the FAST valve remain energised to keep the door closed and locked.

7. When the train speed is above 5 kph, train line 23 is energised, and the FAST valve is energised. The door is then mechanically locked and cannot be opened by using the emergency push buttons.

8. When the door close train line is de-energised and the train speed is less than 5 kph, then the FAST valve will be de-energised, and the door will remain closed in the released and unlocked mode.

f) The abnormal door control is performed as follows;

1. While the door is closing, and the emergency push button is depressed, the door valves will be de-energised, and the door released. The door may then be opened by hand. After a time limit, the door will continue the closing process. The closing may be interrupted 3 times, after which the door will power closed with maximum pressure applied. If the CLOSED sensor is not detected after a time limit, the door is released and the cycle is repeated.

2. If the door is obstructed while closing, and the close sensor is not detected within a time limit, then the door will release. The operation of the door will be the same as mentioned above.

3. If the train speed is less than 5 kph, and the doors are closed. Then depressing the emergency button will effective reduce the pressure on the cylinder. The door may then be hand opened. After a period of a few seconds, the door will close again.

4. If the train speed is greater than 5 kph, and the doors are closed. Then depressing the emergency button will have no effect on the door.

5. When the door close train line is de-energised and the train speed is greater than 5 kph, then the FAST and LOCK valves will remain energised, until the train speed is less than 5 kph when the door will be released.

g) The abnormal door control if the Coach Controller fails;

1. If a Coach Controller fails to operate and the SYSCK relay is not energised inside the Coach Controller. Train line 38 will be supply a negative return for the Coach Controller Fault Light on the Drivers Desk [4077] and for the bypass unit on that specific Motor or Trailer Coach [5027], [5036].

2. If either Train Line 24 or 26 or Both are energised, then Train Lines 24 and 26 will energise each door close valve on each door opening on the coach where the Coach Controller has failed through the bypass unit. This means that there will be no smart controls of the doors as described in par e & f.

19.8 Testing of Doors on a 10M4 & 10M4-1 Trainset

The purpose of this test will allow you to close and open all the doors on a Trainset. The test can only be done per side (A-Side or B-Side) The Following steps must be followed to obtain the results:

1. Switch on the Driver’s Control Key (DCK). 2. Press the Door Release button on the side that will NOT be tested.

3. Press the Door Close button on the side that must be tested. When the Door

3. B-side heater thermostat switches (which are connected in series) must be closed for all the heater units, the digital input signal to the coach controller must be high (110V DC) THER B [8037].

4. If all conditions are normal the coach controller will close A-Side and B-side heater contactor. Heater contactor coil A-side =8-K101 [8033] and B-side =8-K102 [8037]. The heater fans for A-side and B-side will also be energised. [8033], [8037]

5. The heater control supply is fed form MCB =8-Q101 [8033] (A-side) and MCB =8-Q102 [8037] (B-side) via wire L4.

6. After the heater contactor’s are closed the coach controller will detect if current is flowing =8-B101 [8019], [8052] through A & B-side heater circuits after a time delay. If one of the heater circuits is not drawing any current the coach controller will de-energise the specific heater contactor.[8033], [8037]

(Heater circuits A-Side and B-Side are controlled separately)

e) If any of the above conditions are not normal the coach controller will display the following fault codes on the specific coach controller were the fault may occur :

1. If one of the heater thermostat of the A-side heater circuit is open circuit, the coach controller will energise led FAN FLT A [8056]

2. If one of the heater thermostat of the B-side heater circuit is open circuit, the coach controller will energise led FAN FLT B [8056].

3. If the coach controller detected no current in the A-side heater circuit, the coach controller will energise led ELM FLT A [8056].

4. If the coach controller detected no current in the B-side heater circuit, the coach controller will energise led ELM FLT B [8056].

5. If the Aux. HV Compartment (in a Motor Coach) [8023] or the HV Cover (in a Trailer Coach) [8114] is not closed the specific coach controller will energise led FAN FLT A, FAN FLT B, ELM FLT A and ELM FLT B [8056] simultaneously.

31.1 Description.

a) The traction power circuit consists of 4 1500-volt traction motors. The two motors per bogie are always connected in series. The bogies are initially connected in series, and may also be connected in parallel. The traction motor fields may also be weakened by paralleling them with an inductive divert.

b) The traction circuit is powered from the overhead line through 4 line switches (LS1, LS2, LS3, and LS4) [1012, 1014]. The combination of the circuit is controlled by combination switches JR1&2, J1&2, RS, P and G. The weak field is controlled by switches F1 and F2. The resistors are switched out by means of resistor switches R1, R2, R3, R4, RR1, RR2, RR3, RR4. The direction is changed by means of the reverser (REV) which reverses the fields of the traction motors.

c) Cutting out acceleration resistors, and changing the combination from series to parallel accelerates the traction motors. The microprocessor traction controller carries out the entire control process.

d) A bogie may be cut-out with the cut-out knife switches MCOS 1&2 and MCOS 3&4.

e) Line switches LS4 and LS3 are fitted with parallel resistors. When the traction circuit is opened, LS4 opens first which will introduce some resistance to the circuit to reduce the current. LS3 will introduce further resistance, and LS1 and LS2 will clear the circuit. LS1 and LS2 are fitted with restrictors to slow their opening process, so that the line current may be reduced as a result of the introduction of the additional resistance by LS3.

f) The traction circuit is monitored as follows:-

1. Line voltage is monitored by P1. [1011]

2. Bogie one current is monitored by DCCT1. [1014]

3. Bogie two current is monitored by DCCT2. [1016]

These three units supply analog data to the traction controller, and are powered from the traction controller. [3092]

4. An over load unit monitors the bogie currents. (MOL1&2, MOL3&4) [1011]. The unit operates when a bogie current exceeds 350 amperes.

5. The input and output current is monitored by an earth leakage unit – Current Balance Relay. (CBR) which operates when the difference in input and output current is greater than 50 ampere.

These two units constitute the hardwire protection of the traction system. An operation by any unit will interrupt the control circuit of the

line switches [3063] and disconnect the traction circuit from the power supply.

6. The ammeter shunt (AS) [1017] drives the traction current meter on the driver’s desk.

g) The traction circuit may be isolated and earthed by means of the High Voltage Compartment Isolating Switch (HVCIS) [1014].

31.2 Control Signals to HT Frame on a 10M5 Motor Coach

10M Earth and Isolate Operating Manual.doc 9/16/2005 Page 1

1 Introduction The new Class 10M5 Motor Coaches have been fitted with a modern isolation and earthing system incorporating key controlled interlocking devices. Separate switches and keys have been provided for the Auxiliary Supply and Traction Supply systems. The new interlocking system has been developed with the following features.

The Isolation and Earthing switch has to be unlocked and locked using the new Drivers Control Key (DCK) that is used to unlock the Single Handle Master Controller (SHMC).

When the appropriate system has been isolated and earthed, a Master key will be released that is used to unlock the respective High Voltage Compartment. The isolation switch cannot be operated until the Master key is returned to its original position.

This Master key is held captive while the HV door is unlocked. A Slave key may be removed from the HV door bolt lock to lock the HV

door in the open position thus preventing door closure by an unauthorized person.

As the new system is key controlled, as compared to heavy linkage control used on present systems, the system is light and easy to operate.

2 Isolation and Earthing Switch Description There are two systems, one for Auxiliary Supply, and one for Traction Supply.

Auxiliary Supply 1x Auxiliary HV Earthing Switch (Blue and Orange keys) including slider door twin key exchange bolt lock that is coach uniquely coded blue master and orange slave.

Traction Supply 1x HV Room Earthing Switch (Green and Yellow keys) including slider door twin key exchange bolt lock that is coach uniquely coded green master and yellow slave.

3 Isolation and Earthing Switch Functional Description The unit will be unlocked with the driver’s

control key. No action of the left lever will be allowed unless the driver’s key is inserted and unlocked.

The left handle may be operated after depressing the lever knob. The driver’s key will be captive during rotation, but may be taken out in any of the two stationary positions.

During the 90° left handle lever rotation the system will activate two IP67 NO/NC micro switches. (E.g. to give an electrical signal to drop line breaker and heater circuits etc.)

Immediately afterwards the air valve will be opened to vent the pantograph cylinder and close the air supply to the pantograph.

Only after the full 90° rotation is completed may the drivers control key be taken out again. The lever will be locked in this position and the right hand lever is released and may be operated.

The right hand handle may now be rotated by 90 ° to earth and isolated the high voltage equipment.

Three IP67 NO/NC micro switches will be activated in the rotated position. This operation will double lock the left-hand handle in position. Driver’s

control key is not required for this operation. The master key is released and may be removed by locking the right hand

handle into this position. The master key is then inserted into the double bolt door lock. The door may be unlocked and slid to the open position. Once the door

moves from the closed position, the master key cannot be rotated and removed.

A slave key will lock the door in the open position and may be taken out. The operator will keep this key; to ensure his safety that the system cannot

be taken from an earthed and isolated state back to a live state.

SINGLE HANDLE MASTER CONTROLLER AND VIGIDRIVE WITH INTEGRATED DEADMAN AND VIGILANCE CONTROL

FOR CLASS 10MX MOTOR COACHES

1 Introduction The Driving and Braking Controllers fitted to Class 5M2A motor coaches consist of two levers that are operated independently to control the powering and braking of a Class 5M2A train. These controllers have initially been installed into all series Class 10M Motor Coaches.

A new driving and braking control system has been developed with the following features.

The Driving as well as Braking control levers have been incorporated into one Single Handle Master Controller (SHMC).

The driving control position is entered by pushing the handle forward, and pulled backwards to enter the braking control positions.

The Deadman system has been changed from a heavy spring-loaded lever to a small finger operated trigger switch.

The Deadman System has to be reset every time the controller handle is returned to the OFF position from a powering position.

The Deadman System incorporates a Vigilance System that requires to be reset after a time period.

The New Deadman system is named VIGIDRIVE, which is an acronym for “Vigilant Driver”.

An audible warning is given to notify the driver that the Deadman system must be reset.

The SHMC consists of a thumb switch that is used to hold a Notch position in Series or Parallel Powering Positions when depressed. The same switch when depressed will provide Exhauster Weak Field Operation when the Handle is in the OFF position.

The old standard Reverser Key is no longer required.

A small special key is used to unlock the SHMC. When the controller is unlocked, then the Driver’s Control Key Function (DCK-Control) may be turned on (The cab is then “Occupied”.), and then Forward or Reverse may be selected, and only then will Powering or Braking be permitted.

The same key is used to unlock the High Voltage Earthing Switches.

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 2

A Separate Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve is provided to enable either the Driver or a guard to apply the brakes in an emergency situation.

The Manual Emergency Brake Application Valves cannot be operated in unmanned cabs when a driver occupies another cab.

When the Guard turns on his GCK control key, then the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve in that cab will be made operational.

The SHMC is operated by the left hand.

The new controller improves the ergonomics of the cab, and is easy to use.

2 VIGIDRIVE Description and Functionality 2.1 General Description

The purpose of the Vigidrive system is to ensure that the driver is vigilant at all times while the system is active.

The system has been designed for ease of operation and improved safety of the trainsets.

There is a Deadman function, which will cause an Emergency Brake Application and Traction Shutdown after a short time when a Deadman trigger is detected.

In addition there is a vigilance mode that requires to be reset after a variable period of about 30 to 50 seconds. Failure to reset the Vigilance mode will cause an Emergency Brake Application.

The driver is given an audible alarm when the system needs to be reset.

The system is deactivated in the following conditions:-

The cab is vacated.

The train is stationary and the Forward/Reverse lever is in the Neutral Position. This is known as the Hold Off Mode.

2.2 Deadman Mode While the train is moving, or the Forward/Reverse lever is not in neutral, then the system is active, and the Deadman push button must be depressed at all times.

2.2.1 System Validation and Reset

To verify that the Deadman system is functioning correctly, it is a requirement that the system be reset when the Powering/Braking lever is moved from any powering position to the OFF position.

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 3

When the OFF position is attained, the alarm will sound reminding the driver that the Deadman System has to be reset.

To reset the system, the driver must release and again depress the Deadman Push Button. This will cause the system to reset and the alarm will stop sounding.

Failure to reset the system after a short time limit will cause an Emergency Brake Application and Traction Shutdown.

2.2.2 Deadman Operation

If the Deadman Push Button is released at any time while the system is active, an Emergency Brake Application will be made without any warning after a short time delay.

To allow for hand repositioning, the Deadman Push Button may be released and again quickly depressed without the Deadman system triggering an Emergency Brake.

If the Emergency Brake Application occurs while in the powering mode, then the Powering/Braking lever must be returned to the OFF position to reset the Deadman system.

2.3 Vigilance Mode When the Deadman Push Button has been continuously depressed for a variable period between 30 and 50 seconds, the alarm will sound reminding the driver that the Vigilance System has to be reset.

To reset the system, the driver must release and again depress the Deadman Push Button irrespective of the position of the Powering/Braking lever. This will reset the system and the alarm will stop sounding.

Failure to reset the system after a short time limit will cause an Emergency Brake Application.

If the Emergency Brake Application occurs while in the powering mode, then the Powering/Braking lever must be returned to the OFF position to reset the Deadman system.

When the SHMC is in the OFF or any Braking position, and the Deadman Push Button is released and again depressed after even a very short time, the 50-second timer will be reset before the timer has expired. The 50-second timer will therefore only provide a warning signal and require to be reset if the push button has been depressed continuously for more than 30 to 50 seconds.

When the SHMC is in any Powering position, and the Deadman Push Button is released and again depressed, there will be no effect on the 50-second timer. The timer will not be reset in this mode.

4 VIGIDRIVE Circuit Description and Operation The circuit operation will be described in a chronological sequence from start up through the various phases of operation. Refer to Figures 2 and 3.

4.1 Start Up When Control is switch ON, the SHMC will be in the neutral position.

Pin CN1 (1) will be energised. Supply LED L1 will be illuminated.

Via K1 NC contacts (1-2, 3-4, 5-6) and D13 pin CN1 (2) will be energized. This output controls the application of Quick Service Application (QSA) valves and energizing of the Exhauster Vacuum Valves (EVV).

As the SHMC is in the Neutral position, pin CN1 (6) will also be energized. If the train is stationary, then K1 will be energized via K7 NC contacts (1-2 and 3-4) D14 and K4 contact (1-2). When K1 closes, it provides a holding circuit via K1 contact (11-12), and the supply to pin CN1 (2) will be removed.

Output CN1 (7) and CN1 (9) will be energized by a parallel path via K7 NC contact (5-6), and D16, and as well as via K1 contacts (7-8 and 9-10) and Diodes D1 and D16. These outputs will energize the Emergency Application Valve (EAV), and the Forward/Reverse cams on the SHMC.

System Active LED L3 and EAV FOR REV Active LED L10 will be illuminated.

In this state the VigiDrive will be in Hold Off Mode, and the exhausters may create vacuum.

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 11

4.2 VigiDrive Hold Off Mode The Hold Off Mode can only be active in a cab where Control is switched ON.

The Hold Off Mode is maintained when the coach is stationary, and the SHMC is in the Neutral position.

If the train speed increases to above 5 kph, then K7 will be energized, and K7 contacts (1-2 and 3-4) will open. Speed Switch LED 8 will be illuminated.

This will cause the supply for K1 to be removed, and K1 will de-energize after a short period determined by C1. K1 NC contacts will then via D13 energize output CN1 (2), which in turn will energize the QSA and EVV. Outputs CN1 (7) and CN1 (9) will also be de-energized resulting in the EAV and Forward/Reverse cams being de-energized. In this state the brakes are applied, and vacuum cannot be created, and Traction is prohibited.

LED 3 and LED 10 will be extinguished.

Pressing and holding the Deadman Push Button will energize pin CN1 (4), which will cause the following;

K1 will be provided with an additional supply via D12, K2 contact (1-2) and K4 contact (1-2) and K1 contact (11-12) in parallel which is closed in the Hold Off state.

Deadman Push Button LED L2 will be illuminated.

There will be no further effect on the circuit as this stage.

4.3 VigiDrive Activated from Hold Off Mode Assume the system is in Hold Off Mode, with the train stationary, and the SHMC in Neutral position.

If the SHMC is moved to the Forward or Reverse position, then pin CN1 (6) will be de-energized.

This will cause the supply for K1 via D14 to be removed, and K1 will de-energize after a short period determined by C1. K1 NC contacts will then via D13 energize output CN1 (2), which in turn will energize the QSA and EVV. Outputs CN1 (7) and CN1 (9) will also be de-energized resulting in the EAV and Forward/Reverse cams being de-energized. In this state the brakes are applied, and vacuum cannot be created, and Traction is prohibited.

When the Sonalert begins to sound then Capacitor C2 is in the process of discharging. If the Deadman Push Button is not released and again depressed, then after a time limit K3 will de-energize.

When K3 de-energizes, the following will occur;

K3 contact (11-12) will open and cause relay K1 to be de-energized from the Deadman Push Button as well as holding contact K4 (3-4). K1 is still maintained form the circuit via D14 at this stage.

K3 parallel contacts (7-6 and 9-10) will remove starting circuit for relay K2.

The Sonalert will continue to sound until the Deadman Push Button is released.

The operation will be the same if the Deadman Push Button is only released, except that the Sonalert will stop sounding.

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 15

4.4.3 Notched Off Vigilance Mode NO RESET effect

Due to the VigiDrive being in the Hold Off mode, relay K1 will not be de-energised due to supply via D14. There will thus be no effect upon the braking system.

4.5 VigiDrive Activated in Forward or Reverse Mode When the SHMC is moved to Forward or Reverse position, the appropriate train lines TL4 or TL5 will be energised by the correct cams on the SHMC.

The Neutral cam will de-energize pin CN1 (6), and remove the supply via D14 to relay K1. To prevent an Emergency Brake Application from occurring, the Deadman Push Button must be depressed before the SHMC is moved to Forward or Reverse.

The SHMC will also be in the OFF position, and the NC contact of TL2 cam will energize pin CN1 (3) via the now closed NO contact of the neutral cam. This will energize relay K5 via K2 contact (5-6).

Energizing of K5 will provide a holding contact K5 (9-10) across K2 (5-6) and K5 contact (7-8) will be closed to provide a supply from the Deadman Push Button to K4 via D11.

OFF BRAKING - Normal LED L6 will be illuminated.

The operation of the system will now be exactly the same as described for the Neutral/Notched Off Vigilance Mode, except that when the Vigilance Mode is not reset, K1 will be de-energized and an Emergency Brake Application will be made.

4.6 VigiDrive Operation While in Motion Mode With the SHMC in the neutral position, the VigiDrive is in the Hold Off Mode if the train us stationary.

When the Speed is above 5 Kph, relay K7 will be energized by TL 23, for a Class 10M type coach, or the Traction Controller for a Class 5M2A type coach. K7 contacts (1-2 and 3-4) will de-energize the supply to K1 via D14. If the Deadman Push Button has not been depressed, then an Emergency Brake Application will occur.

In this way, it is ensured that;

A train driver may not coast with the SHMC in the neutral position,

If the train had to run away due to released brakes while in the Hold Off Mode with no driver present a brake application will be automatically made.

4.7 VigiDrive Operation While in Powering Mode When in powering mode, the VigiDrive has two reset functions; Vigilance as described above, and Notch Off Reset.

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 16

4.7.1 Vigilance Reset FUNCTION

The Vigilance operation is similar to that described for the Notched Off Vigilance Mode, except for the following changes.

When the SHMC is moved to any Powering position, the TL2 cam energises CN1 (8). This input supplies the vigilance control relay circuit via D10.

Input CN1 (3) will be de-energized by TL2 cam, and Relay K5 will be de-energised.

K5 Contact (7-8) will remove the supply from Deadman Push Button to the Vigilance Control Relay K4 circuit via D11.

The vigilance reset function will be exactly as previously explained, the only difference being that the supply for K4 is taken from a different point.

4.7.2 Notch Off Reset FUNCTION

When in Powering Mode, and the SHMC is returned to the OFF position, it is required that the system be reset to validate that all circuits are operating correctly, and that the driver is still in control of the Deadman Push Button.

When the SHMC is returned to the OFF position, the following occurs;

The supply for K4 via pin CN1 (8) and D10 is removed.

Pin CN1 (3) is again energised.

When K4 de-energizes, the following will occur;

K4 contact (5-6) will close to energize the Sonalert, which will make a warble sound.

Sonalert LED L9 will be illuminated.

K4 parallel Contacts (7-8 and 9-10) will de-energize relay K3 via D6 from Control supply.

Off delay timer capacitor C2 will now discharge via R12.and K3 coil.

OFF Timer LED L4 will be become dimmer as C2 discharges.

K4 contact (11-12) will de-energize K3 contacts (7-8 and 9-10).

K4 contact (3-4) will close to provide a holding supply from Control during the Reset function.

4.7.3 Notch Off Reset OPERATION

While the Sonalert is sounding, the VigiDrive Deadman function must be reset before relay K3 is de-energized. This is accomplished by releasing the Deadman Push Button momentarily.

When the push button is released and again depressed, then the reset function operates as follows;

Deadman Push Button Released;

Deadman Push Button supply for K1 via D3 is removed. K1 is still maintained by K4 contact (3-4) from Control supply, and K3 contact (11-12), D4, and K1 contact (11-12) and Parallel K4 contact (1-2).

Supply for the Sonalert is removed, and it stops sounding.

DM Push Button LED L2 will extinguish.

Relay K2 will be de-energized via holding parallel contacts K2 (7-8 and 9-10) and D5.

When K2 de-energizes, the following will occur;

K2 parallel contacts (7-8 and 9-10) will open ensuring that K2 holding circuit from Deadman Push Button is removed.

K2 contact (1-2) will close to prepare the start/reset holding circuit from Deadman Push Button to K1.

K2 contact (5-6) will close and relay K5 will be energised.

Energizing of K5 will provide a holding contact K5 (9-10) across K2 (5-6) and K5 contact (7-8) will be closed to provide a supply from the Deadman Push Button to K4 via D11.

OFF Braking – Normal LED L6 will be illuminated.

K2 contact (3-4) will close reconnecting the charging supply for Vigilance long cycle timing capacitor C3 from the Deadman Push Button.

Deadman Push Button is again depressed;

Relays K4, K3 and K2 will be energised as previously described.

The VigiDrive will again be in the Notched Off Vigilance Mode.

4.7.4 Notch Off NO RESET

While the Sonalert is sounding, Capacitor C2 is in the process of discharging. If the Deadman Push Button is not released and again depressed, then after a time limit K3 will de-energize.

When K3 de-energizes, the following will occur;

K3 contact (11-12) will open and cause relay K1 to be de-energized from the Deadman Push Button as well as holding contact K4 (3-4). K1 is still maintained form the circuit via D14 at this stage.

K3 parallel contacts (7-6 and 9-10) will remove starting circuit for relay K2.

The Sonalert will continue to sound until the Deadman Push Button is released.

The operation will be the same if the Deadman Push Button is only released, except that the Sonalert will stop sounding.

4.7.5 Notch Off NO RESET effect

Relay K1 will be de-energised. And an Emergency Brake Application will be made. Traction will also be inhibited.

4.7.6 Deadman Push Button Activation

When in Powering Mode, the Deadman Push Button may be released for a short period of time to allow for hand repositioning.

When the Deadman Push Button is released, the following occurs;

DM Push Button LED L2 will extinguish.

The supply for K1 via D3, K3 contact (11-12), D4 and K1 contract (11-12) is removed.

The Deadman Button Off delay timer capacitor C1 will discharge via R11 and K1 coil.

To prevent an Emergency Brake Application, the Deadman Push Button must be again depressed before K1 de-energizes. The time is approximately half a second.

If the Deadman Push Button is not depressed in time, then K1 will de-energize.

To be able to energize K1 again, the SHMC must be returned to the Off position and a reset carried out,

4.8 Notch Push Button Operation The Notch Push button has a dual function;

To energize TL1 for Notch Hold, and

Page 115: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

Circuit Diagram Manual and Description for VigiDrive and SHMC

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 19

To energize TL16 for exhauster weak field control.

The Notch Push Button is supplied directly from Control. When this button is depressed, relay K6 is energized via pin CN1 (5).

NOTCH Relay LED L7 will be illuminated.

The contacts of K6 are supplied from the OFF position cam.

When the SHMC is in the OFF position, then pin CN1 (11) supplies K6 contacts (7-8 and 9-10). When the Notch Button is therefore depressed in the OFF position, then these contacts supplies output pin CN2 (2) to energize TL16. When TL16 is high, then the exhausters run at high speed in weak field mode.

When the SHMC is in the SERIES or PARALLEL position, then pin CN1 (10) supplies K6 contacts (11-12). When the Notch Button is therefore depressed in the SERIES or PARALLEL position, then this contact supplies output pin CN2 (3) to energize TL1. When TL1 is high, then the notching up of the traction circuit is inhibited.

4.9 Speed Detection The Traction Controller accomplishes the monitoring of speed and energizing of appropriate relays and train lines.

On a 10M type Motor Coach, TL23, which is the Speed train line, is energized by a relay when the speed is above 5 kph. TL23 energizes K7 via input pin CN2 (6), D9 and pin CN2 (10) that must be grounded. The correct operation requires the fitting of the 2 “10M” links as indicated on the circuit diagram. A Speed Switch relay may be fitted to certain Class 5M2A Motor Coaches, which will operate exactly as a Class 10M coach.

However, on most Class 5M2A Motor Coaches, the output from the Traction Controller will control relay K7 directly. In this case, relay K7 is energised via pin CN2 (9), D8 and pin CN2 (10) that is grounded by the Traction Controller by means of negative switching.

Contact K7 (7-8 and 9-10) then energize the Speed TL23 from the Door Control supply via pins CN2 (8) and CN2 (7).

LED 8 will be energized while K7 is energized.

5 SINGLE HANDLE MASTER CONTROLLER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The SHMC consists of;

10 Micro switches that are operated by cams that determine the positions of the Forward/Reverse leave, and the Powering/Braking lever.

15 Emergency Application Valve

Air control valve used to activate Emergency Vacuum Brake Valve. When the VigiDrive is active, this valve is energized. If sufficient air pressure exists, then the main valve will isolate the Emergency Vacuum Brake Valve from atmosphere.

5.3 Mechanical Brake Function of SHMC

To understand the mechanical brake function of the SHMC, refer to Figure 5.

When the DCK lever is in the OFF position, the DCK OFF Cut Out Valve will be closed to isolate the Emergency Vacuum Brake Valve from atmosphere.

Page 120: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

Circuit Diagram Manual and Description for VigiDrive and SHMC

VigiDrive Description Ver 1.0.doc 12-09-2005 Page 24

This will ensure that the braking system will operate normally when the train is dead hauled.

When the DCK is switched to the ON position, the DCK OFF Cutout Valve will connect the Emergency Application Valve, which has a port to atmosphere, to the Emergency Vacuum Brake Valve.

To be able to create vacuum, the Emergency Application Valve must be energized by the VigiDrive system. This will occur when the VigiDrive is active, or in Hold Off Mode. For the Emergency Application Valve to switch, about 20kPa air pressure is required.

When in Emergency Brake Position, the Emergency Position Cutout Valve will activate the Emergency Vacuum Brake Valve by connecting it to atmosphere directly.

5.4 Wiring Diagram Refer to the wiring diagram Figure 4 for details of the wiring of the SHMC.

The wires for each micro switch have been cable tied in such a way that a switch may be changed out without having to remove all cable ties.

6 Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve This valve is used to make a Manual Brake Application in an emergency situation, or whenever required.

When all the cabs are unmanned, this valve is unlocked, and may be opened at any time.

When any cab on the train becomes a Leading Cab by switching on the DCK, then these emergency valves in all trailing cabs will be locked to prevent unauthorized opening of the valves.

However in any cab where a DCK, or GCK is switched on, the valve will be unlocked enabling the driver or guard to open the valve when required.

This valve is fitted with a micro switch that energizes the QSA and EVV control circuit when the valve is in the open position.

The brake valve is locked by means of two small air pistons that are supplied by means of an electrically operated air valve. The DCK or GCK control circuit energizes this air valve. The valve can therefore only be actually locked once sufficient air pressure has been created.

1 PURPOSE

The Class 5M2A/10M Microprocessor Controlled Traction Controller has been developed with the following major objectives;

to improve the operation of the Class 5M2A Motor Coach, to increase the reliability of the traction control equipment, to reduce maintenance requirements time and costs, to reduce wear and tear of Traction Equipment, to provide improved protection of Traction Equipment, to reduce the number of components in the traction control circuits, to simplify fault finding of Traction Equipment,

1.1 to improve passenger comfort, to improve the safety of operation, to provide fault monitoring and logging with “black box” data recording to provide a Trip Logger function, to provide a history log of record-able incidents, to provide operating statistics of the main switches.

This control system is designed to address the major shortcomings associated with the control of these coaches as detailed below;

1.2 Interlocks

Switch interlocks that are used in the sequencing can easily cause open circuits or be incorrectly adjusted. This destroys the proper sequencing of the switchgear, which is dependant upon cam operated time delays. This may lead to flash over of motors or switches. Sequence is now controlled by software.

1.3 Calibration

Calibration of the traction motor notching current is extremely difficult to control on motor coaches. Therefore, there could be four motor coaches in a train set all notching at different current levels. This can cause jerking and jolting. Switching levels are now defined in software.

1.4 Wheel Slip

On motor coaches, uncontrollable runaway wheel slip is a severe problem, which leads to, flashed over and / or centrifuged armatures of the traction motors and unnecessary tripping of the traction supply. This is due mainly to the unevenly distributed weight of the motor coach, and non-existence of wheel slip detection equipment. Wheel slip control has been addressed by means of axle speed measurement and software control.

1.5 Fault Finding

The resistor interlock control system is difficult to fault find and repair, relying heavily upon experience. A simpler solid-state system with less moving parts

and non-reliance on interlocks is provided. Diagnostic tools are provided by means of a portable computer.

1.6 Provision of Data Logging

All parameters monitored and controlled by the system are available for analysis by means of the Fault Logger and Trip Logger.

This controller is not an add-on unit, but is a complete change of the control system of the motor coach. It has been specifically designed to eliminate add on units.

The controller comprises of a universal industrialised controller that has been implemented and programmed to perform the functions required to effectively control a Class 5M2A or 10M resistor controlled Motor Coach.

The controller is mounted inside the high voltage compartment as an integral part of the HV frame. This ensures that a compete HV frame can be tested and verified before being installed into a motor coach. The status of all 110-volt input and output control signals required by the controller may be viewed through a window in the cubicle behind the driver position. These signals are indicated by means of LED's on the relevant input and output cards of the controller.

With this controller, the control circuit is simplified, as all the sequencing requirements and calibration requirements are now carried out by means of the software. Special tools and fault data recorded by means of the event logger make it easier to determine faulty traction equipment.

2 POWER CIRCUIT (20-10-01)

The traction power circuit consists of four 1500-volt traction motors. The two motors per bogie are always connected in series. The bogies are initially connected in series, and may also be connected in parallel. The traction motor fields may also be weakened by paralleling them with inductive diverts.

The traction circuit is powered from the overhead line through four line switches (LS1, LS2, LS3, and LS4) [101, 102]. Combination switches JR1&2, J1&2, RS, P and G control the grouping of the traction circuit. Switches F1 and F2 control the weak field. The resistors are switched out by means of resistor switches R1, R2, R3, R4, RR1, RR2, RR3, RR4. The direction is changed by means of the reverser (REV), which reverses the fields of the traction motors.

Cutting out acceleration resistors, and changing the combination from series to parallel accelerates the traction motors. The microprocessor traction controller carries out the entire control process.

Either bogie may be cut-out with the cut-out knife switches MCOS 1&2 and MCOS 3&4.

Line switches LS4 and LS3 are fitted with parallel resistors. When the traction circuit is opened, LS4 opens first which will introduces some resistance to the circuit to reduce the current. LS3 will introduce further resistance, and LS1 and LS2 will clear the circuit. LS1 and LS2 are fitted with restrictors to slow their opening process, so that the line current may be reduced as a result of the introduction of the additional resistance by LS3. The opening sequence of the line switches remains under hardware control via interlocks as per original design.

The traction circuit is monitored as follows:-

Line voltage is monitored by P1. [100]

Bogie one current is monitored by DCCT1. [103]

Bogie two current is monitored by DCCT2. [106]

These three units supply analogue data to the traction controller, and are powered from the traction controller 24-volt power supply.

An over load unit monitors the bogie currents. (MOL1&2, MOL3&4) [101]. The unit operates when a bogie current exceeds 350 amperes.

The input and output current is monitored by an earth leakage unit – Current Balance Relay. (CBR) which operates when the difference in input and output current is greater than 50 ampere.

These two units (existing equipment) constitute the hardwire protection of the traction system. An operation by any unit will interrupt the control circuit of the line switches which in sequence will disconnect the traction circuit from the 3000-volt supply.

The ammeter shunt (AS) [107] drives the traction current meter on the driver’s desk.

The traction circuit may be isolated and earthed by means of the High Voltage Compartment Isolating Switch (HVCIS) [104].

6 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE TRACTION CONTROLLER

This section describes the function of the various control system components. 6.1 Traction Controller

The microprocessor traction controller monitors all the required parameters and signals required for the correct operation of the traction equipment. It controls the equipment in accordance with the commands dictated by the control software.

6.1.1 Digital Inputs

The 110 volt digital signals are monitored by two 32 channel Digital Input Cards (DIN32). This card optically isolates the input signals from the internal circuits of the controller. The signals monitored are train lines, switch status, protection equipment status, etc. When the input signal is high, then the corresponding LED on the card will be ON.

6.1.2 Analog inputs and Outputs

The eight channels of the Analog to Digital-Digital to Analog Card (ADDA) monitor the analogue inputs. All the transducers used for monitoring armature current, line voltage, brake pipe vacuum, and 110-volt supply voltage operate on a 20 milli-amp current loop standard. The ADDA card converts the current loop value to a digital value for the controller. This card also drives instruments such as the speedometer, and line ammeter by converting the digital values generated by the controller to a current, which drives the instrument.

MICROPROCESSOR TRACTION CONTROLLER Document Number: RTS-IM--0001

Approved By: Controlled and Issued By: Revision Date Page Number

Senior Engineer Configuration Manager A.3 Sep 2005 9

6.1.3 Pulse Inputs

The axle speeds are monitored by means of shaft encoders on each axle. The output signals are supplied to the Bi-directional Decoder Card (BIDEC) which converts the pulses into a digital value.

6.1.4 Digital Outputs

The control of switches, relays and indications are accomplished by two 16 channel Relay Output Card (ROUT16). The controller energises relays on the card, which in turn energise the required 110-volt switch, relay or lamp. All the devices that are switched are suppressed by means of snubber circuits to prevent switching spikes.

6.1.5 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The control software (Control Program) is resident in the Central Processor Unit (CPU) card, which acts upon the inputs to produce the desired outputs.

The program is down loaded into the CPU by means of a Notebook Computer, and is stored in Flash Ram (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory - E2PROM). When the CPU is operational, it makes use of Non Volatile Ram to store its calculated information.

The CPU also stores the fault data and trip log that is recorded on another area of Flash Ram called the Flash Disk. This data is down loaded by means of a Notebook Computer or hand terminal.

The history log (FLF LOGGER) is stored in battery backed up memory and is down loaded by means of a Notebook Computer or hand terminal.

6.1.6 Local Area Network (LAN)

This card connects the controllers in a trainset onto a network. Any controller can then be interrogated from a single point by means of a laptop computer.

6.1.7 Power Supply

The controller is powered by means of a Power Supply Unit, which incorporates a battery and battery charger. (PSU-CH). The power supply is a switch mode converter that converts the 110-volt input to the following supplies: 5 volts, +15 volts, -15 volts, and 24 volts. The 5 volts is used to power the CPU and electronic components on other cards. The +/-15 volt is used to power the Analog to Digital converters on the ADDA cards. The 24 volts is used to charge the battery, power the transducers, shaft encoders and provide supply for the relays on the ROUT16 cards.

When the 110-volt supply is de-energised, the power supply will continue to supply power to the controller for approximately 3 minutes (if the battery is fully charged) to permit any fault data that may be required to be safely stored. After this time delay, the power supply will automatically shut down.

6.1.8 Notch Off Timer (Off Delay Module) and Relay (NOTR)

The 110-volt power supply for all the HV switches is supplied by means of an Off Delay Module. This unit in turn controls a Notch Off Relay. The delay module and relay are energised when train line 2 goes high. When train 2 goes off, the delay module de-energises the Notch Off Relay a few seconds later. This allows time for the controller to notch down the HV switches in the set sequence.

6.1.9 Isolated Communication Port (ISOLCOMS)

This device is mounted within the cubicle behind the driving position, and is used to connect a notebook computer to the controller even while the HV compartment is energised.

The ISOLCOMS also has a red indication light, which is illuminated when the Traction Controller has stored fault data. In this way, it is possible to check for and to download fault data without opening the HV compartment.

The ISOLCOMS is powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

6.2 Transducers

The transducers are installed in suitable positions in the power and auxiliary circuit to monitor the signals that are required to effectively control the Motor Coach.

6.2.1 Line Voltage Transducer (VT)

The Line Voltage Transducer (Type VT) is connected between the input line and earth. Its function is to monitor the line voltage and supply the information to the traction controller. It has an input range of 0-5000 Volts. The output is a current signal, which varies between 0 and 20 milli-amp.

The VT is powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

6.2.2 Armature Current Transducer (IT)

Two Armature Current Transducers (Type IT) are used to monitor the armature current - one per bogie. The IT has a range from -625 amps to +625 amps. The output is a current signal, which varies between 0 and 20 milli amp.

The IT is powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

6.2.3 Brake Pipe Vacuum Monitor (PT)

The Brake Pipe Vacuum Monitor (Type PT) is used to monitor the brake pipe vacuum. The PT has a range of 0 - 100 kPa vacuum. The output is a current signal, which varies between 4 and 20 milli amp.

The PT is powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

6.2.4 Auxiliary Supply Voltage Monitor

The Auxiliary Supply Voltage Monitor (Type 200V20mA) is used to monitor the Auxiliary power supply. The input range is 0 - 200 volts.

The output is a current signal, which varies between 0 and 20 milli amp.

This monitor is powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

6.2.5 Axle Speed Detection Shaft Encoders

The speed of all four axles is monitored by means of the Axle Speed Detection Shaft Encoders. The shaft encoder is mounted at the end of an axle and is driven by means of a spring drive coupling.

The output of the shaft encoder consists of two 180 degree phase shifted variable frequency signals, which give an effective resolution of 2048 pulses per revolution of the wheel when the data has been transformed by the BIDEC Card.

The Shaft Encoders are powered by 24 volts, which is derived directly from the Traction Controller power supply unit.

7 NORMAL OPERATION OF TRACTION CONTROLLER

Consider the Motor Coach ready for service with the HV compartment closed and unearthed. The following normal sequence of events will occur.

7.1 110 volts energised.

When the 110 volts Auxiliary supply is energised, the power supply of the controller is energised via the 5-amp "Micro Control" circuit breaker situated in the Low Voltage Compartment.

The power supply will apply the 5-volt and +/- 15-volt supply rails to the controller.

To allow time for the CPU to power up and to "boot"", the 24 volt supply is kept off for 5 seconds.

After this time delay, the 24-volt supply is applied to the controller and transducers.

The controller then calibrates the two current transducers to both read zero amps.

If the compressor air to the frame is low, than the controlled will perform a test of the Slip Hold and Train Line 6 relays to check that the circuits are operating correctly.

The controller is now ready for operation (idle state). While in the idle state the controller is monitoring all the inputs waiting for an instruction.

7.2 CONTROL energised.

When the "CONTROL" push button is energised, the controller will recognise that it must perform some additional functions required by a leading coach. The following functions will be performed during the control process by the leading coach: -

Energise the Master Door Close Relay.

Provide wheel slip/slide indication on the driver's indication panel when detected, and

Execute a Speedometer test by advancing the meter from 0 to 120 kph and back.

During this test time, the Traction Fault and Wheel Slide indication lights are energized. Also the Emergency Brake Relay is energized to check that the circuit is operating satisfactorily.

This test will be carried out if the HV is locked. 7.3 FORWARD or REVERSE selected.

The reverser key is moved into the "FORWARD" position and energises train line 4.

The controller will energise the forward magnet valve of the reverser drum and validate the check back signal from the interlock on the drum.

If the reverser key is returned to neutral, the magnet valve will be de-energised, but the check back signal will remain energised as the reverser drum "latches".

The reverser key is moved into the "REVERSE" position and energises train line 5.

The controller will energise the reverse magnet valve of the reverser drum and validate the check back signal from the interlock on the drum.

If the reverser key is returned to neutral, the magnet valve will be de-energised, but the check back signal will remain energised as the reverser drum "latches".

7.4 SWITCHING Selected.

The Master Controller Handle is moved into the "Switching" position, energising train lines 1 and 2.

Train line 2 energises the Off Delay Module.

A normally open contact on the Notch Off Timer Relay supplies 110-volt power to energise the line switches.

A second normally open contact energises a Digital input to the controller.

When the timer has energised: -

The controller checks that all the requirements for closing of the traction circuit are correct - that is: -

• Line voltage within limits • All protection circuits normal • All switch validation inputs are OFF. • Traction blowers energised • Air pressure correct.

Master Door Close Relay is energised for 1 second if the coach is leading. This relay energises train lines 24 and 26 to close the passenger side doors.

LS4 is energised.

LS4 interlocks energise LS3, which in turn energise LS1 and LS2. All check backs are validated.

High Voltage contactors JR1 and JR2 are closed, validating check backs and the power circuit is closed.

Current flows into the traction motors, which are now connected in series. (If no current flows due to an open circuit, the line switches will be opened.)

After 3 seconds, High Voltage Switch RS is energised and cuts out a section of the accelerating resistance and the armature current increases.

Automatic Hand Notching Override

The coach will continue to accelerate and the current will decrease as the speed increases. In this position, all the traction resistors except for RS are still in circuit. To assist with the protection of the resistors, the controller will automatically advance the train through its notches at 5-second intervals until full series has been attained, or the traction current is less than 100 amps

This automatic notching while in Switching mode will only take place if the bogie current is less than the switching value for a notch, and higher than 100

amps. In this way, coaches are prevented from being powered for long periods of time in a certain notch position applying heat stress to the resistors.

If the automatic notching causes the train speed to increase above that desired by the driver, then the master controller must be notched off.

7.5 SERIES Selected

The Master Controller Handle is moved into the "SERIES" position de-energising train line 1.

Train line 1 is known as the Holding Train Line. When it is energised, notching is prevented, and when it is de-energised, notching is permitted. This function allows the driver to perform "hand notching".

When train line 1 goes low, the controller energises resistor contactor RR1 - validating check back. RR1 cuts out a section of accelerating resistor and the armature current increases.

As the speed of the train increases, the armature current will decrease. When the switching level is achieved, the Controller will energise resistor contactor R1. This process of energising resistor switches continues until all the resistor switches have been energised.

The sequence of energising the resistor contactors and their respective switching value is shown below.

Switch Current level

RR1 220 Amps R1 235 Amps R2 270 Amps

RR2 270 Amps RR3 270 Amps R3 270 Amps R4 270 Amps

RR4 270 Amps J1/2 270 Amps

If the master controller is at any time returned to the SWITCHING position, train line 1 will again be energised and sequencing will stop. The coach will then continue to run in the notch selected. When SERIES is again selected, then the notching sequence will continue. In this way, the driver may select any notch to control the speed and acceleration of the train to suit the operational requirements. The Automatic Hand Notching Override described above will apply in this case.

Approximately one second after closing of RR4, the combination switches J1 and J2 are energised. The accelerating resistors and switches are now by

passed. The motor coach is now in full series, where the full line voltage is connected across the four traction motors in series.

In the full series condition, wheel slip correction is not possible. Wheel slip correction will again be possible in parallel.

When the closing of J1 and J2 have been validated, all the resistor switches are de-energised.

7.6 PARALLEL Selected

The Master Controller Handle is moved into the "PARALLEL" position energising train line 3.

The transition from series takes place as follows: -

Combination switches P and G are energised. After validation, combination switches J1 and J2 are opened. The traction motors are now connected in parallel with equal amounts of the accelerating resistor in series with each pair of motors.

If the bogie currents differ with more than 50 amps when P and G are closed, then the line switches will be opened. This current imbalance can be due to;

• A stiff wheel bearing or

• Imbalanced accelerating resistors or

• Uncorrected wheel slip or

• Unequal closing times for P and G switches.

After validation that the transition has been successful, then the resistor switches will be sequenced to cut-out the accelerating resistance.

If the master controller is at any time returned to the SWITCHING position, train line 1 will again be energised and sequencing will stop. The coach will then continue to run in the notch selected. When any other notch is again selected, then the notching sequence will continue. In this way, the driver may select any step to control the speed and acceleration of the train to suit the operational requirements. In Parallel mode the Automatic Hand Notching Override is not applied, and the train may run in the notch selected

The sequence of energising the resistor contactors and their respective switching value is shown below.

Switch Current level

RR1 220 Amps R1 190 Amps R2 220 Amps

RR2 195 Amps RR3 220 Amps R3 195 Amps R4 220 Amps

RR4 200 Amps These switching levels translate to 440 amps on the cab ammeter.

7.7 WEAK FIELD Selected

The Master Controller Handle is moved into the "WEAK FIELD" position energising train line 6. On coaches where the Weak Field Function is permitted, the Traction Controller will only allow weak field between 54 and 90 kph.

Weak field switch F1 is energised and is validated.

After F1 validation weak field switch F2 is energised and is validated.

If the Master Controller Handle is moved out of the "WEAK FIELD" position train line 6 is de-energised, and F1 and F2 will de-energise simultaneously. If the speed increases to above 90 kph, then F1 and F2 will de-energise simultaneously

The sequence of energising the weak field contactors and their respective switching value is shown below.

Switch Current level

F1 160 Amps F2 115 Amps

7.8 OFF Selected

When the Master Controller Handle is moved into the "OFF" position train lines 1, 2, 3, and 6 will be de-energised. The controller will then perform the "Notch Off Sequence".

F1 and F2 will be de-energised simultaneously.

All resistor switches are de-energised simultaneously. This reduces the line current.

Line switch LS4 is de-energised and a current limiting resistor is introduced into the power circuit.

A LS4 interlock opens LS3, which introduces a further current limiting resistor into the power circuit.

A LS3 interlock opens LS1 and LS2, which interrupt the line current.

All remaining combination switches are opened.

If notching or direction change is requested, this notch off sequence will be completed first before the new instructions are executed.

7.9 AUTOMATIC Sequence.

If the Master Controller Handle is moved directly into the "WEAK FIELD" position from stand still, the controller will carry out the sequence as described above automatically with wheel slip correction.

7.10 REVERSER returned to "NEUTRAL"

When the reverser is returned to the "NEUTRAL" position, either train line 4 or 5 will be de-energised, and the appropriate reverser magnet valve will be de-energised.

7.11 Power Testing

When the motor coach is powered tested against the brakes, the line switches will open after 5 seconds. The master controller must be returned to “OFF” to reset the system.

8 ABNORMAL OPERATION OF THE TRACTION CONTROLLER

The operation of the coach under various internal and external circumstances is described in detail below.

8.1 Traction Motor Cut-Out

When a pair of traction motors have been cut-out, the remaining pair will notch to full series during the series notching sequence. The result for the two traction motors is the same as parallel. The notching current level is 220 amps.

8.2 Traction Motor Over Load

This is a hard wire protection function, which bypasses the traction controller. An over load interlock in the LS4 control circuit will de-energize LS4, which de-energize LS3. LS3 and LS4 add resistance into the power circuit to reduce the fault current. LS1 and LS2, which are fitted with restrictors, will then open the traction circuit.

When an over load occurs, the fault counter is incremented. Fault data may be stored by the fault monitoring system if selected.

The driver by means of the reset push button then resets the traction circuit after notching off. If a second, and third motor over load occurs before the system has

notched past R3, then the fault counter will be incremented, the fault lock out relay (FLR) will be energised, and the pantograph will be lowered. The pantograph may be raised again, but traction will not be possible until, the FLR has been reset after the motor coach has been examined.

If no fault occurs before notch R3 series, then the fault counter will be set to zero.

8.3 Traction Motor Over Current

This is a software protection function. When over current is detected, the Traction Controller will de-energize LS4, which de-energize LS3. LS3 and LS4 add resistance into the power circuit to reduce the fault current. LS1 and LS2, which are fitted with restrictors, will then open the traction circuit.

When an over current occurs, the fault counter is incremented. Fault data may be stored by the fault monitoring system if selected.

Notching off then resets the traction circuit. If a second and third over current occurs before the system has notched past R3, then the fault counter will be incremented, the fault lock out relay (FLR) will be energised, and the pantograph will be lowered. The pantograph cannot be raised again until the FLR has been reset after the motor coach has been examined. (It is possible to raise the pantograph if the FLR is tripped by rearranging the pantograph wiring.)

If no fault occurs before notch R3 series, then the fault counter will be set to zero.

8.4 Current Imbalance

This is a hard wire protection function, which bypasses the traction controller. A current imbalance interlock in the LS4 control circuit will de-energize LS4, which de-energize LS3. LS3 and LS4 add resistance into the power circuit to reduce the fault current. LS1 and LS2, which are fitted with restrictors, will then open the traction circuit.

When a current imbalance occurs, the fault counter is incremented. Fault data may be stored by the fault monitoring system if selected.

Notching off resets the traction circuit. If a second and third current imbalance occurs before the system has notched past R3, then the fault counter will be incremented, the fault lock out relay (FLR) will be energised, and the pantograph will be lowered. The pantograph cannot be raised again until the FLR has been reset after the motor coach has been examined. (It is possible to raise the pantograph if the FLR is tripped by rearranging the pantograph wiring.)

If no fault occurs before notch R3 series, then the fault counter will be set to zero.

8.5 Continuous Current Imbalance

If a current imbalance persists for longer than two seconds, then it implies that the earth fault is between the Current Balance Relay (CBR) and the top contact

of LS1. To clear this fault, the pantograph is lowered, and FLR is locked out. 8.6 Abnormal Line Voltage 8.6.1 Over Voltage

When an over voltage occurs, the software will open the line switches. When the voltage returns to normal, and all conditions are safe, the motor coach will automatically re-notch back to the demanded mode position.

8.6.2 Under Voltage

When an under voltage occurs (between 1000 volts and 1800 volts), the line switches will be opened by the software. When the voltage returns to normal, and all conditions are safe, the motor coach will automatically re-notch back to the demanded mode position.

When the under voltage is less than 1000 volts, then the master controller has to be returned to "OFF" before notching will be permitted. This is considered as a "No Line Voltage" or "Line Ground" situation.

8.6.3 No Line Voltage

When there is no line voltage, the line switches will not close when notching is requested. 8.7 Wheel Slip

When wheel slip is detected, the motor coach will notch back until the slip has ceased, and will then automatically re-notch to the demanded notch position.

Notching back in series may proceed until all the R Switches have opened. Notching back in parallel may also proceed until all the R Switches are open.

When the rail conditions are extremely severe, and the controller has notched back until all the R switches have opened in series or parallel, then the speeds of each axle are compared with an over-slip limit. If the controller keeps the system in this mode, and any axle exceeds the over-slip limit, or the slip is not corrected within 10 seconds then the coach will notch OFF to stop the wheel slip condition.

The coach will automatically notch up again as long as the driver does not notch OFF.

The Wheel Slide light will also illuminate if wheel slip is detected on that coach. Wheel slip on other coaches cannot be indicated to the driver.

During wheel slip, train line 1 is energised to prevent any other coaches from notching further. This method prevents jerking of the trainset during wheel slip correction.

8.8 Wheel Slide

Wheel slide on a motor coach cannot be controlled automatically. When wheel slide does occur on any MOTOR COACH in a trainset, the "Wheel Slide" light in

Page 152: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

the leading cab will be illuminated. The driver may then reduce braking effort if conditions permit to try and correct the wheel slide.

8.9 Accelerating Resistor Protection

As the accelerating resistors of the Class 5M2A motor coaches are naturally cooled, they can easily become overheated, or cause heat damage to surrounding equipment if not used correctly. The proper driving technique is to ensure that the coach is advanced to either full series or full parallel as fast as possible to prevent overheating of the accelerating resistors.

However operating conditions such as gradients, overloading, speed limits, failed motor coaches, or incorrect driving technique, may cause coaches to remain with their accelerating resistors longer in circuit than they were intended to be. This can cause excessive heat, and failure of the accelerating resistors.

In an effort to aid with the protection of the accelerating resistors, the changes described below have been made to the control software.

For this function to operate 100% successfully, the train set needs to be powered by only Micro coaches, and the HOLD and TL6 circuits must all be fully functional. A non-micro coach will not be able to respond to the signals from a micro coach for it to react correctly to the actions below. (A modification to non-micro coaches will however make this possible.)

8.9.1 Hand Notching Override

When the train is in series mode, and is held in Switching, and the motor current is between 100 and 270 amps, then the train will be forced to the next notch after a period of 5 seconds. Force notching will continue until the traction circuit has either advanced to full series, or the current has been reduced to less than 100 amps.

If the driving conditions are not conducive to the additional notches, then the driver must notch off if the speed increases above what is required. (e.g. 15 kph speed limit.)

Forced notching will generally increase the train speed to about 25 kph in full series, depending upon the load and gradient. This function is not used in parallel mode.

8.9.2 Heat Counter

From experience gained in service, and analysis of data captured during accelerating resistor failure, a “heat counter” has been included in the software to predict the amount of heat being generated by the accelerating resistors.

When the heat counter exceeds a predetermined amount, the coach experiencing the overheated situation will cause the train set to be notched off for a period of about six minutes to allow sufficient time for the accelerating resistors to cool down.

Page 153: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

During the cool down period, the indication to the driver on any micro coach will be the Traction Fault Light, and the Wheel Slide Light flashing alternately.

In addition, on the coach where the Overheated situation occurred, the Speedometer will indicate some speed value, and will be slowly reducing as the heat counter counts down. This indication will only be seen once the train has stopped.

When the Speedo indicates zero, the indications will stop, and the train may then be driven again.

During the notching sequence when the accelerating resistors are no longer in circuit in full series, or full parallel, the heat counter will count down, as the accelerating resistors will be cooling down. Similarly, when the coach is notched OFF, the heat counter will be counting down until zero.

8.10 Faulty Switch Check Back Signals

The monitoring of the main switches has been improved, in that a faulty check back signal will not cause the line switches to open, as long as the main contact of the switch closes. The fault will still be recorded in the FLF logger.

If the coach is however undergoing a sequence test, and a check back does fail, then the line switches will open. The check back will need to be repaired to ensure a sequence test pass.

8.11 Faulty Current monitor - LEM

Each time when the system starts up, and each time the line switches close, the two current monitors are validated. If a current monitor is detected as faulty, or out of calibration, then traction will be permitted to full series only, making use of the remaining current monitor. In this way the motor coach will still assist with the powering of the train set.

If the coach is however undergoing a sequence test, and a current monitor is detected as faulty, then the line switches will open. The current monitor will need to be repaired to ensure a sequence test pass.

8.12 Defective Shaft Encoder

Every time the train coasts at above 20 km/h, the shaft encoders are evaluated for correct operation. If a faulty shaft encoder is detected, then it will be ignored for any further speed or wheel slip calculations. Fault data is also stored. A faulty shaft encoder will need to be re-detected every time the Traction Controller is restarted.

When a Shaft Encoder is not operational, the Traction Controller can still perform wheel slip detection and correction.

8.13 Sequence Fault

When a sequence fault occurs, the software will open the line switches and fault data will be stored.

8.14 Low Supply Air

When the main air is less than 300 kPa, the line switches will not close when notching is requested.

8.15 Traction Blower Motors Off

When any traction blower motor circuit breaker is off, the line switches will not close when notching is requested.

8.16 Deadman Operation

When a "Deadman" operation is made, the line switches are opened, and train line 15 and 17 are energised to operate all the QSA valves and cut-out the exhauster. Fault data is also stored.

8.17 Coasting in Neutral

This is an illegal driving technique. If this condition is detected, the train brakes will be applied after 2 seconds by energizing train lines 15 and 17. The brakes will be released as soon as the reverser is moved out of the neutral position.

8.18 Braking While Powering

If the brakes are applied while the traction circuit is energised, and the Vacuum is reduced to 30 kPa then the line breakers will be opened. The master controller will need to be returned to the "OFF" position to enable notching again.

8.19 Guard Brake or Vacuum Leak

If a guard applies the brakes at the rear of the train, or a vacuum leak occurs, then once the Vacuum has reduced to 25 kPa then the line breakers will be opened. The QSA valves will be energised, and will only be released once the train has come to a standstill. The master controller will need to be returned to the "OFF" position to enable notching again.

8.20 Over Speed

When an over speed occurs, the software will open the line switches. Notching will not be permitted until the speed has been reduced to the reset value.

In the event of synchronous slip where all four axles slip at the same speed, and wheel slip cannot be detected, this over speed function will prevent damage to the traction motors.

8.21 Single Axle Over Speed

If a single axle runs away because of non-correction of a wheel slip condition, then the line switches will open.

8.22 Plugging

If the train speed is above 10 km/h, traction will not be permitted if a change of direction is requested. The Reverser will also not change direction until the speed is below 10 kph.

8.23 Accident

If a motor coach is subjected to an extreme shock, which is detected by the

Impact Switch, all system parameters will be stored in the fault logger as a so-called "BLACK BOX" function.

8.24 Control Cut-Out

When Control is cut-out, (Barrel switch opened) traction will not be possible on that motor coach. The "Traction Fault" light will be illuminated.

8.25 Controller Reset

If the controller had to reset, then all high voltage switches will open. When the software is again operational, the driver will have to notch to OFF position to restart the system.

8.26 Faulty Off Delay Module AND Relay

If the Off Delay Module or relay fails, then the line switches will not close when notching is requested.

9 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE TRACTION CONTROLLER

To control the sequence of a motor coach is a relatively simple function for a microprocessor to perform. The operation of each high voltage switch is under the direct control of the software thus eliminating series interlocks and cam dependant time delays and overlaps.

With the installation of a Microprocessor, it was possible to introduce many additional features to the motor coach control system as is described below

System Functions and Features 1 Non-dependence on series interlocks.

2 Non-dependence on cam dependant time delays.

3 Non-dependence upon time delay relays for notching control.

4 Restrictors used in the control air supply of switches to assist with the timing of switch operation are eliminated except in LS1 and LS2.

5 Correct operation of a switch is confirmed before the sequence progresses.

6 Sequence is fixed by software.

7 The software easily optimizes sequence and time delays and current switching levels.

8 Calibration of the system is accomplished by means of the software and hence not subject to drift or tampering.

9 Notch off sequence under normal and fault conditions is properly controlled

preventing open circuits in the high voltage circuit.

10 Wheel slip is detected and is controlled by stopping the sequence and notching down until the wheel slip has been corrected. This requires axle speed detection. Suitable shaft encoders are installed on each axle. While any coach on a trainset is experiencing wheel slip, the other motor coaches are prevented from notching further until the wheel slip has been arrested. This action prevents jerking of the trainset and prevents other motor coaches from slipping due to increased loading that will result when a coach notches back.

When slip cannot be corrected due to severe track conditions, the coach will be automatically notch off and on again provided the driver remains in a notch position.

11 When re-notching at speeds above 29 km/h, the controller advances the traction motors from RS stage directly to full series J stage when series or parallel is requested. This practice saves R switch wear and tear and improves the response of the motor coach.

12 Over speed cut-out has been introduced to prevent traction motor flash over and or centrifuged armatures. This also applies if wheel slip could not be corrected, where a single axle or synchronous runaway situation will be arrested.

13 Wheel sizes can be accurately calibrated by means of a single measurement.

14 The "Deadman" feature has been improved which will introduce a penalty brake application if certain unsafe (and illegal) driving practices are employed.

15 The "Deadman Emergency Brake" has been improved in that together with opening the brake pipe to atmosphere in the driven cab, all Quick Service Application Valves as well as Exhauster Cut-Out Valves on the trainset are energised simultaneously.

16 The Deadman emergency Brake will also triggered when the brakes are applied by a Guard is a trailing cab, or if a vacuum leak occurs.

17 An accident "black Box" function is included which records essential driving parameters and logs a fault if extreme deceleration or shock occurs.

18 Fault monitoring, event recording and data logging is included.

19 Train movement and fault data information can be down loaded to a base station utilizing a GSM data link (If installed on the coach and at the base depot).

20 Equipment may be tested and verified by means of a notebook computer

connected to the controller. Any microprocessor controller on a trainset may be interrogated from one cab by means of a communication network. By using a software controlled test sequence, it will be easier and quicker to locate a faulty component.

21 Fault finding of switchgear is simplified and could be carried out by low skilled maintenance staff, utilizing a hand held tester.

22 A stand-alone tester in the workshop can test the controller cards. Thus any faulty electronics of the controller may be easily isolated to a particular printed circuit board.

23 Speedometer is directly driven from the controller. The speedometer will operate even if only one shaft encoder is functional.

24 The speedometer may be tested when the HV compartment door is open by sequencing the controller. Switching will indicate 30 Km/h, Series - 60 Km/h, Parallel - 90 Km/h and Weak Field - 120 Km/h. This eliminates cumbersome testing equipment.

25 When Control is energised, the Speedometer indicates full scale for a moment to indicate to the driver that the instrument is operational.

26 Reliability of switchgear and vehicle is improved because of correct operation at all times, proper operation of switches during faults, and easier means of locating faulty equipment.

27 The controller does not require the old No Current Relay (NCR), as the system monitors the line voltage. Therefore, these coaches will not open their line switches when traversing section insulators. If severe pantograph bounce had to occur, the coach will notch off and automatically notch up to the mode demanded by the driver if conditions are safe.

When a loss of line volts occurs, the driver has to return the master controller to the "OFF" position to power again. (Thus the no current function is still available.) The NCR function is implemented in software. If there is no current flow before the RS switch is closed, then the traction circuit is de-energised.

28 Master door close function, which closes the passenger side doors when train line 2 is energised, is included and is carried out by the leading motor coach. At speeds above 5 kph an additional output is generated which energises the passenger door lock train line, TL23 (where installed)

29 To reduce jerking at start off, the Soft Start method has been retained, whereby the traction motors are started in Weak Field for one second. To reduce jerking as a result of wheel slip, the following procedure has been implemented. While a coach is experiencing slip, the whole trainset is prevented from notching further. When the wheel slip has been corrected, then the trainset will notch further synchronously. The Soft Start feature will

Page 158: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

only function at speeds below 10 kph. If not required, the Soft Start function may be disabled by disconnecting a wire on the input panel

30 "Plugging" is prevented above 10 km/h.

31 If an earth fault occurs between the HV coil of the current imbalance relay and the line side of the line switches, the pantograph will be lowered as a final recourse to clear the fault.

32 Sequential motor over loads, over currents or current imbalance operation will result in the traction circuit being locked out by means of the Fault Lock-Out Relay (FLR) and the pantograph being lowered.

33 If the driver notches off and traction current continues to flow due to HV switches stuck closed, then the pantograph will be lowered as a final recourse.

34 The distance traveled is counted by means of an odometer that is held in non-volatile memory.

35 If wheel slide is detected on any motor coach in a trainset, then the leading motor coach will illuminate a "wheel slide" light on the driver's desk.

36 Provision has been made for switch off of traction power in case of an "Emergency" or security loop failure signal such as Red emergency pantograph lower button on 10M type coaches.

37 Under conditions of low line voltage, the notching current is reduced in an effort to prevent the 3 kV supply system from over loading.

Under conditions of high line voltage, the notching current is also reduced to limit the heat dissipated by the accelerating resistors.

38 All inputs and outputs are indicated by means of LEDs, which is an immense help for faultfinding. It is extremely easy to determine the state of the motor coach equipment by monitoring these LEDs.

In addition, the fault codes that have been defined by the traction controller are indicated on the CPU LEDs. Additional faults need to be monitored by means of a Portable Computer.

39 The master controllers’ cam-switches no longer switch contactors, but are only used as signals. The cam switches should therefore become more reliable.

40 The driver's indication unit includes a "Traction Fault" light which will be illuminated whenever traction is not possible due to faulty equipment, or when the coach has been locked out, or cut-out. This will assist fault staff to quickly determine which motor coach in a trainset has a fault.

41 The driver's indication unit includes an "Exhauster Weak Field" light which will be illuminated whenever the exhauster are running in weal field.

42 Automatic calibration of traction current monitors before traction is performed at every system start up.

43 Detection of bogie current sharing imbalance possibly caused by; seizing wheel bearings; or imbalanced accelerating resistors; or imbalanced operating times of P and G switch, or uncorrected wheel slip in transition.

44 A power test of the motor coach is limited to 5 seconds.

45 The system consists of a fault logger that logs serious faults that may be analysed once the data is downloaded.

46 All the fault codes and indication codes are stored in Fault Latch Flag logger that store up to 4500 incidents. This logger data can be analysed with a personal computer or a hand held terminal.

47 The operations of each switch is counted and stored. This data can be analysed with a notebook computer or a hand held terminal.

48 A Brake Test Logger has been included; whereby the trainset brakes may be evaluated in terms of deceleration rate and stopping distance. This system is activated with a notebook computer whilst on the train.

49 The Train set brake system can be tested even if only a leading motor coach is a Microprocessor Controlled Coach.

50 Main Accelerating resistors are protected from overheating by predicting the heat generated, and notching the train off for a period to allow cooling.

10 EQUIPMENT REMOVED FROM A COACH

12 FAULT DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM - FAULT LATCH FLAG (FLF) CODES

The traction controller generates a number of “fault and indication” codes, which are displayed on the CPU lights in a binary format. These codes are very useful in determining any fault conditions that a coach may be experiencing. These codes are known as Fault Latch Flag or FLF Codes.

12.1 The FLF Logger The Traction Controller in the FLF Logger logs these Fault Latch Flag codes. The FLF Logger is viewed by means of a notebook computer and the Traction Controller configuring software.

Each time a new code is generated, the logger will store the Date, Time, Coach Odometer reading, Code Number and Code name.

4500 codes may be stored in this way.

12.2 How to Read the CPU lights The first six lights (numbered 0 to 5) on the CPU are used to indicate a code. The code is indicated in binary form, and needs to be converted to decimal.

0 • 1 In the example shown on the left, 1 • 2 lights 0,1,3 and 5 are ON. 2 o 4 3 • 8 The decimal code is determined by 4 o 16 adding the values shown on the label. 5 • 32 6 o CPU OK 1+2+8+32 = 43 7 o COMMS (Shaft Encoder 3 No Output)

12.3 FLF Code Listing The table below lists all the possible codes, and their meanings.

Class 10M2 Coach Controller

SYSTEM INFORMATION (MAINTENANCE)

1. Functional Description of Operation and Layout of Equipment

a) Requirements Fulfilled

The upgraded Class 5M2A train sets are equipped with a Microprocessor Controlled "Coach Controller" per coach.

The purpose of the Coach Controller is to provide an intelligent means of controlling all the non-traction auxiliary equipment on a coach.

All the control functions for equipment connected to the Coach Controller will be carried out or supervised by the Coach Controller. This Coach Controller and most of the associated control equipment are housed within suitable equipment cabinets in the high-tension compartment vestibule area on a Motor Coach, and under the coach in the case of a Trailer Coach.

The major advantages of such a central Microprocessor Controlled Coach Controller are: -

1. The control function may be easily optimized by suitable software changes.

2. The control of additional equipment is relatively easy to accommodate.

3. All the equipment under control of the controller may be easily tested for correct operation by means of a portable tester connected to the controller. Thus, the diagnosis of faulty equipment is simplified.

The following is a functional description of the Coach Controller. The same controller is used for a Trailer Coach and a Motor Coach. Different software is however applicable.

The controller performs the following functions on any coach: - Control of passenger side doors. Control of the ventilation system and coach heater contactor. Control of the lighting system. Provision of network Fault diagnostics.

On a Motor Coach, the controller performs the following additional functions/ Control of battery system Control of auxiliary compressor and pantograph Control of Motor Alternator or Generator as applicable

Class 10M5 Coach Controller - System Information (Maintenance)

10M5 Coach Controller Maintenance 2005-09-16.doc 09/16/05 Page 2

Control of the main compressor. Control of the exhauster

The control system requires the following transducers: -

Temperature Transducer – to monitor coach temperature. Two 20 Amp current transducers to monitor the ventilation units motor

current. One 110v voltage monitor to monitor the battery voltage on a motor

coach. One –100amp to 100 amp current monitor to monitor the battery

charging and discharge currents. One 3000 Volt voltage monitor to monitor the line voltage on a motor

coach. One pressure switch to monitor the door system air pressure.

b) System Functionality

The system consists of a standard microprocessor controlled system that has been implemented as a Coach Controller for these train sets.

The various equipment controlled by the system, are under the control of the software resident in the microprocessor memory. The software reacts to the input parameters, and controls the output equipment in accordance with the program instructions.

The input signals connected to the controller are of two types:

110v dc digital-input signals, such as train line status, status of position sensors.

0-20mA Analog signals such as coach temperature, ventilation motor current, battery voltage and current.

The output signals of the system are;

Relays that are used to energize the appropriate contactors, relays, valves or lights.

An analog 0 to 20mA signal is used to drive the Line Volt meter.

The input and output signals are distributed amongst various electronic modules or cards. These cards are connected to a common bus where data is transferred to the central processing unit. The system is powered by a switch-mode power supply that converts the train 110v dc to the required voltages for the system.

One card is used to indicate the status of certain software parameters.

Class 10M5 Coach Controller - System Information (Maintenance)

10M5 Coach Controller Maintenance 2005-09-16.doc 09/16/05 Page 3

c) Protective or safety features incorporated into the system.

The system monitors over current for the ventilation units, and the battery. It also monitors for over and under voltage for the battery. Appropriate actions are taken to protect the equipment being controlled. Line voltage is monitored for Motor Alternator control, as well as Line Voltage indication on the drivers desk.

The system monitors the output of the controller power supply as well as the battery supply. No control functions will be performed if these supplies are not present.

Door control air pressure is monitored by means of a pressure switch. If the pressure is less than 300 kPa, then door control will not be attempted.

The system monitors the train power supply lines. If any power supply is missing due to a failed motor alternator then the ventilation fans will be prevented from operating.

If the 110v-power supply fails, then all controlled equipment will be de energized.

d) Indicators incorporated into the system.

If any Coach Controller system on a train set is switched off or fails, then train line 38 will illuminate the “Coach Controller” indication on the driver’s desk. One card of the system - LED32 - is used to indicate certain software parameters.

e) Built-in test facilities

The system checks itself automatically on start up. A System Check relay is energized by the system. This effectively automatically checks the train 110v supply, the controller power supply, the digital input and output cards and the software for correct operation. If any of these parameters are not correct, then train line 38 will be energized.

f) System components and their location

The system may be exchanged as a plug in unit. For the Trailer Coach, the system is mounted in a control cubicle under the coach. For the Motor Coach, the controller is installed in the equipment cubicle in the high-tension compartment vestibule area on a Motor Coach.

All input and output signals are connected to the controller rack by means of 4 interface plugs – INCN1, INCN2, INCN3 and OUTCN1 which are mounted on the plug interface panel. If these plugs are disconnected then the controller may be removed as a unit. On the front of the plug interface panel, the computer communication interface (ISOLCOMS) is also mounted.

On the rear of the controller are mounted the System Check relay, as well as a “pulse stretcher” module which is used to “stretch” input pulses which may be of a shorter duration than the system sampling period.

2. System Fault Finding/Functional Checks

a) Precautions to be taken before the system is tested or checked

Ensure that the power supply is switched off before any of the cards are removed, or any card is inserted.

Ensure that it is safe to operate any of the equipment that is controlled by the controller.

After replacement of any cards, the card retainers must be firmly secured.

b) System testing to ensure correct functionality

Switch on the power supply. The sequence of events to check for is as follows.

CPU

Check that all the CPU Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) flash once as the power supply is switched ON – this indicates CPU reset.

After the reset, the LEDs 1 and 2 will flash – indicating that the CPU operating system is functioning correctly.

POWER SUPPLY

On the power supply, check that the LEDs marked VB2, VB1, VDD, VEE and VCC are ON. LED WD must flash with a period of about 1.5 seconds.

After 5 seconds, LEDs BATT and 24V will be energized, and the 24v-supply rail of the system will be energized.

ADDA CARD

When the 24v-supply rail is energized, the ADDA card LEDs will all energize. LED 5, which must flash at 10 hertz.

ROUT CARDS

After a delay of about two seconds after the 24 volt rail is energized, ROUT card number two, will energize the System Check relay. This will be indicated by LED SYSCK on ROUT number two being energized.

DIN32 CARDS

The energizing of the SYSCK relay will be confirmed when the digital input LED CB SYSCK (Check Back System Check) is ON.

The corresponding LED on the faceplate will indicate any 110v input signals that are present. (For example A BUS, B BUS, U BUS etc.)

Class 10M5 Coach Controller - System Information (Maintenance)

10M5 Coach Controller Maintenance 2005-09-16.doc 09/16/05 Page 6

LED32 CARD

LED SYSOK will flash indicating that the software is running satisfactorily.

At this stage, the system is ready to respond to any commands via the input signals.

c) Required test equipment

i It comprises

A notebook computer operating the Windows 95 or later operating system is required to upload control software into the CPU. The uploading process is carried out by software called WinT.

WinT can also be used to carry out detailed interrogation of the system inputs, outputs and system memory. Suitably qualified personnel would generally use this.

A small terminal can also be used to monitor inputs to the system, and to monitor control system parameters. Maintenance staff to check the operation of input transducers could use this terminal.

ii It is used as follows

The notebook computer is connected to the system by means of an RS232 cable through the isolated communication Interface that is mounted next to the input/output interface plugs.

The terminal is connected to the CPU via the 25-pin DSUB plug on the faceplate.

iii Test equipment requires no maintained

d) Indications that can be expected during testing.

When any Coach Controller is OFF on a train set, the “Coach Controllers” light will be illuminated on the driver's desk. This function is performed by the system check relay.

When a system is being tested, the above-mentioned light will be illuminated until the SYSCK relay is energized.

e) Failures that are likely to occur within the system and possible causes.

CPU Card failure – Component failure.

LAN Card Failure – Component failure.

DIN Card failure. – Component failure.

LED Card failure. – Component failure.

ROUT Card Failure – Component failure or supply applied directly to input. This

Class 10M5 Coach Controller - System Information (Maintenance)

10M5 Coach Controller Maintenance 2005-09-16.doc 09/16/05 Page 7

could cause a direct short and subsequent damage to PCB.

ADDA Card Failure – Component failure or short circuit of transducer wiring. (This card supplies 24 volts to power the voltage and current transducers.)

POWER SUPPLY failure – component failure or excessive input over voltage, or battery fuse blown due to short circuit of 24-volt supply.

ISOLCOMS Failure – Component failure.

SYSCK - System Check Relay Failure – Coil open circuit or contacts stuck open or closed.

f) Failures that are evident to operating crew (cab indication, warning, etc.)

Any failure that causes a Coach Controller not to operate correctly will be indicated by the “Coach Controller” indication on the driver’s desk.

g) Consequences of system failure

All equipment under control of the controller will be in the OFF State. The coach doors will be in released, manual open mode. (The door bypass unit will still close the doors when requested by the door control system, as well as energize emergency lights.)

The fact of system failure will be indicated on the driver’s desk as described above.

h) Step-by-step procedures to be carried out in order to isolate each likely failure

Switch on the Power Supply, and check for the correct indications on the LEDs to determine where the failure might be.

On the power supply low Vcc, Vdd, Vee, VB, or VB2 will be shown by an off led. If any of these voltages are too high, the appropriate led will flash.

A failed CPU will generally have no LEDs illuminated.

A failed ADDA will have incorrect led indication.

The indication on a DIN card will depend upon the failure.

The indication on a ROUT will depend upon the failure. If a relay contact is stuck closed, the item being controlled will be permanently energized. If the contact is open circuit, the item will not be energized when the relay on the card is energized.

Once a faulty card has been isolated, then replace the card with a sound unit.

Ensure that the CPU is programmed with the Coach Controller appropriate

3. The Driver’s Indication Panel – on the right on the drivers desk will illuminate the following lights;

a) Motor Blowers 1

b) Motor Blowers 2

c) Pressurising Fan

d) Coach Controllers

e) Fire Warning will flicker (See fire system description)

4. After 5 seconds, the coach controller’s light will extinguish, which indicates that all the coach controllers on the trainset are ready.

c) Raise the Pantograph

1. Ensure that the pantograph reservoir cock in the corridor is open.

2. Check that the pantograph cock is in the open position.

3. To raise the pantograph of one coach, push panto raise after the coach controller light has extinguished.

4. To raise all pantographs of the trainset, switch on the DCK, insert the reverser key, and select either forward or reverse (keep deadman handle depressed) then push panto raise once the coach controllers light has extinguished.

5. If the pantograph reservoir air is less than 450 KPA, then the auxiliary compressor will operate. It takes between 3 and 4 minutes to pump sufficient air to raise the pantograph. A small air gauge in the Cut Out cubicle indicates the air pressure of the pantograph reservoir. At 640kPa,

the compressor will stop, and the pantograph will be raised.

6. When sufficient air is available, the pantograph raise valve will be energised, without running the auxiliary compressor.

d) Motor Alternator Starting

1. If all is normal, the MA will start automatically when the pantograph contacts the overhead line after ± 5 second, if 3000 Volts is available.

2. If the MA does not start reset the MA HV Over Load. This is done by switching ON the DCK, and pushing "auxiliaries reset" to reset the MA Over Load.

e) Main Compressor Starting

1. When the MA is running, the main compressor will start automatically.

2. If the compressor does not run, check that there is 110-volt supply. Switching ON the DCK can do this. If the traction blowers run, then the supply is OK. With the DCK ON, push auxiliaries reset to reset the compressor overload. If the compressor still does not run, then report the fault.

3. If the 110-volt supply is not OK i.e. the traction blowers do not run, then check that the MA Over Voltage Relay has not tripped. Open the Low-tension cubicle. The MAOVR is situated in the lower left-hand corner. Push the BLACK push button. If the MAOVR was tripped, then the supply should be restored when the alternator contactor closes.

2. Auxiliary compressor 3. Emergency lights 4. Fire Suppression System 5. Coach sliding doors 6. Trunking Radio and Public Address 7. Cab lights 8. Tail and side lights

9. Pantograph and Auxiliary Compressor Control a) When the batteries are ON, and the Coach Controller is operational, the

pantograph of a single motor coach may be raised by pushing PANTO RAISE. To raise all the pantographs on a trainset, the DCK must be ON, and the reverser handle must first be placed in the FORWARD or REVERSE position.

b) If there is sufficient air supply in the panto reservoir (>450 kPa) the Coach Controller will energise the panto Raise valve.

c) If the air in the panto reservoir is too low (<450 kPa), the Coach Controller will first run the auxiliary compressor until the air supply is sufficient (>640 kPa), and will then energise the panto raise valve.

d) Pushing panto lower will lower all pantographs no matter what position the reverser handle is in.

e) If the auxiliary compressor runs for more than 20 minutes without attaining 640 kPa pressure, the Coach Controller will automatically switch it off and attempt to raise the pantograph.

f) If Panto Lower is energised while the auxiliary compressor is running, the Coach Controller will stop the compressor.

g) In a non-leading cab, the pantograph control buttons are disabled.

10. Motor Alternator Control a) The Motor Alternator control circuit is powered from batteries and hence

overloads may be reset without the need for manual switches.

11. Main Compressor Control a) With the Motor Alternator running, C bus will be energised, and the main

compressor circuit will be energised.

b) The Coach Controller controls the main compressor.

c) If the compressor overload is normal, and compressor synchronisation control train line 28 is energised, then the Coach Controller will energise the compressor contactor, and the Compressor overload holding coil for half a second. The compressor will then run.

d) When train line 28 de-energises, the controller will de-energise the contactor,

Page 205: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

and energise the automatic drain valve (where installed) for half a second. The auto drain valve operates for the first three cycles of the main compressor, and then every 30th cycle.

e) If the compressor overload trips, the controller will stop the compressor.

12. DCK and GCK Functions a) Interlocking is provided to prevent more than one DCK from being active on a

trainset at a time. b) The GCK is however always active regardless of the number of GCKS ON, on a

trainset. c) The DCK activates all the functions of the GCK, on the motor coach where it is

inserted except for the Guard’s speedometer unit, and the public address system enable signal.

d) The following function are accessible without any control keys:

1. Switching on the batteries on the trainset, except when a DCK is activated in another cab.

2. Switching off the batteries on the trainset, except when a DCK is activated in another cab.

3. Raising of the pantograph on a specific motor coach, except when a DCK is activated in another cab.

4. Lowering of the pantographs on the complete trainset, except when a DCK is activated in another cab.

Operation of the headlight control. 12. Activation of the train number indication lights in all cabs. 13. Activation of the door warbler

13. Exhauster Control a) With the Motor Alternator running, C bus will be energised, and the exhauster

power circuit will be energised.

b) The Coach Controller controls the exhauster and the DCK must be switched ON to energise the repeater relays, which energise the exhauster control circuit on all motor coaches.

c) If the exhauster overload is normal, the Oil Level Switch (where fitted) is normal, and DCK is ON, then the Coach Controller will energise the exhauster contactor, and the exhauster overload holding coil for half a second. The exhauster will then run.

d) The controller will also provide a negative supply for the weak field contactor, so that this contactor may be energised when train line 16 is energised in the Release position of the brake valve. The controller will start the exhauster in full field even if the brake handle is in the release position. (After a time delay weak field will be permitted.)

e) If the exhauster overload trips, or the DCK is OFF, or the Oil Level Switch opens, the controller will stop the exhauster.

14. Traction Blowers and Pressurising Fan Control a) With the Motor Alternator running, C bus will be energised.

b) The Traction Blowers, Pressurising Fan and Scavenger Fan are controlled directly by the DCK, which must be switched ON to energise the repeater relays, which energise the blower and fan circuits on all Motor Coaches.

c) Two DCCTs connected in series with the blower motors monitor the current drawn by each blower circuit. When the current is less than 2 amps, a relay will open in the DCCT, and will thus de-energise the indication circuits to the traction controller, and to the driver’s display unit.

d) Because the driver’s indication panel is moved to the desk position, the indication lights for these blowers and fan will be ON when the fans are OFF.

e) The two DCCTs are powered by means of 24 volts, which is obtained from the traction controller power supply unit.

15. Master and Brake Controller a) The 10M5 Motor Coaches are fitted with the New Single Handle Master

Controller & Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve. The Operation of these driver control’s are fully explained in Chapter 7 Document Single Handle Master Controller and Vigidrive with Intergraded Deadman and Vigilance control for Class 10Mx Motor Coaches Operating Manual.

b) The master controller and brake valve and QSA valves are unchanged. A contactor is used to energise the QSA valves.

c) To improve the driving position, the master and brake controllers have been transposed. Powering is done with the left hand, and braking with the right hand.

d) The driver controls are energised by the DCK.

e) The Deadman handle is used to detect when a deadman function has been triggered.

f) The traction overload reset circuit is powered by the trainset batteries, if the traction reset button is depressed the master controller is de-energised.

g) If the Red Emergency push button is depressed in a Leading Cab, the master controller is de-energised, and panto lower train line 10 is energised.

16. Driver Indications a) The driver’s indication panel consists of 12 lights (3 are unused, and is mounted

on the driver’s desk.

b) The unit consists of a test button, which energises all the lights when depressed. In this way the operation of the lights may be confirmed.

c) The following is a description of the lights and meanings.

17. Coach Ventilation Control a) Each coach consists of 2 ventilation circuits. For a trailer coach, each circuit

comprises of two fans, and for a motor coach, one of the circuits consist of one fan. The speed of the fans are controlled in four stages to provide more airflow as the temperature increases.

b) The temperature in the coach is monitored by means of a temperature monitor, which is situated in one of the monsoon ventilator ducts.

c) The Coach Controller monitors the temperature, and switches the fan contactors accordingly to control the speed.

d) For the fans to operate A and B bus must be energised, and the DCK must be ON (Train line 13 energised). If any of these inputs to the controller are OFF, the fans will not be energised. In this way;

1. The load is distributed between two motor coaches.

2. Fans will not run unnecessarily when the train set is powered up but unmanned.

3. If a Motor Alternator fails, then the fans will not operate thus reducing the load on the remaining Motor Alternator.

e) The operation of the fans is staggered relative to their position, so that the air may be evenly circulated.

f) The temperatures are set as follows

VENTILATION CIRCUIT ON Temperature OFF Temperature

VENT1 (Slow) 10 deg C 9 deg C

VENT2 (Slow) 14 deg C 13 deg C

VENT3 (Fast) 18 deg C 17 deg C

VENT4 (Fast) 22 deg C 21 deg C

18. Coach Lights Control a) The coach fluorescent lights are divided into three circuits;

1. Emergency lights fed from battery bus.

2. Half lights fed from A bus

3. Half lights fed from B bus

b) In this way the load is distributed between two motor coaches.

c) When LIGHTS ON is activated on the guard’s panel, the LIGHTS ON relay is

Page 209: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

energised, which energises train line 19 and the green LIGHTS ON indicator on the guard’s panel.

d) Activating LIGHTS OFF will de-energise train line 19 and consequently all lighting relays.

e) When panto lower is depressed, the lights are automatically switched off by energising the LIGHTS OFF relay.

19. Cab Lights Control All lights in the cab are supplied from the train battery.

a) The CAB LIGHTS switch on the guard’s panel switches the cab fluorescent lights ON, and the INSTRUMENT switch on the driver’s desk switches the instrument light on. The cab lights may also be dimmed.

b) Switches on the guard’s panel control the tail and wing lights.

c) Switches on the guard’s panel control the train number indicator lights.

d) The corridor and equipment room lights may be switched ON or OFF from a switch on the guard’s panel

20. Headlight Control a) The headlights are only operational in a leading cab. When the DCK is ON then

headlights may be switched ON/OFF or DIMMED and BRIGHT by means of the switch on the driver’s desk. Contactors operate the headlights.

b) Both headlights are powered simultaneously.

21. Coach Door Control a) These coaches are fitted with the Faiverley air piston door system.

b) The door warbler also allows the driver/guard to control the saloon doors and would not allow the driver to take traction before the doors are closed

A. Description of the Door Warbler Controller Door Warbler Controller

• These controllers will only be operational when a Driver activates control, or the Guard switches the

Guard’s Control Key (GCK) ON.

This Door Warbler Controller can not detect if a door is open. The reason for this is that there are no sensors at the doors. HOWEVER, it can detect if the signal is given to close or release the doors train lines.

B. Operation for a fully manned trainset 1. The Driver or the Guard is able to close the doors by pressing the desired push button

either on the right-hand or the left-hand Side Door Control push buttons. 2. If any door close push button is pressed, the following will occur. • The Warbler will sound on each Motor Coach where the Controller is installed. (For

±3 Seconds) • After the Warbler has sounded there will be a delay of ±3 seconds, then the doors will

be energised to start closing • When a door close push button is pressed, the Traction Inhibit light will be illuminated

on the leading Motor Coach Door Control Panel. While this light is ON, traction will not be permitted for a time limit. (± 10 Seconds)

• After the Traction Inhibit light is OFF. Traction will be permitted.

C. Traction Inhibit. 1. If the Guard, Driver or the Leading Motor Coach is closing the Doors Traction inhibit

will be activated on the Leading Motor Coach. This function is used to prevent the Driver from Powering before the doors are given sufficient time to close.

2. The Traction Inhibit Fault Indication will only be ON when the Master Controller is

moved to Notch 1 and the Traction Inhibit is illuminated on the Door Warbler. (Normal Operation).

3. BUT if the Traction Inhibit Light is OFF on the Door Warbler Controller and the

Traction Inhibit Fault Light is still ON when the Master Controller is in any Notch, a fault has occurred. At this stage the traction inhibit can be overridden if the Master Controller is moved to Notch 1 and the Traction Inhibit Push button is pressed and released. BUT if the Master Controller is moved to notch OFF and moved back to notch 1 with the Traction Inhibit Fault Light still ON in front of the Driver the same actions must be repeated as explained above. THIS IS NOT THE NORMAL OPERATION AND MUST BE REPORTED TO THE FAULT PERSONNEL.

D. Trainset Power Testing. 1. With this door control system, it is not possible to isolate the door control circuits

from the Driver’s Control. Consequently, when a driver performs a power test of the trainset, the warbler will sound, and the doors will be closed. This is not a good situation to occur within the confines of a station, as passengers will be confused and could lead to panic.

2. To permit the driver to perform a power test without door control taking place, the

following procedure must be implemented.

Switch on control in normal way Apply brakes Select forward or reverse Push in and hold Auxiliary reset Perform power test and notch off Release auxiliary control push button

Note

If the auxiliary reset is released before the master controller is returned to OFF position, then a door close cycle will be initiated.

c) The Coach Controller separately controls each door. The controller monitors and controls the following;

d) Normal door control is performed as follows;

Page 212: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

Class 10M5 Operating Manual

10M5 Operating Manual.doc W2002 9/16/2005 Page 18 of 24

1. At system start up, the controller waits for the LOW AIR input to be de-energised (at 300 kPa).

2. The position of the door needs to be determined. If the door is either open or closed, nothing happens. If the door is neither open nor closed as detected by the sensors, then the door is closed slowly. When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the door is released. The controller then waits for an instruction.

3. If the door is closed and either of the emergency push button at the door position are pressed, or the door is opened slightly, then the OPEN valve is energised, and the door powers open and releases in the open position after a time limit.

4. If the door is closed and the driver energises the door close train line, the FAST valve is energised, and pressure is applied to the piston.

5. If the door is open, and an emergency button is depressed, or the door is closed slightly, then the FAST valve is energised, and the door starts to close. When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the door is released and remains closed.

6. If the door is open, and the close train line is energised, then the FAST valve is energised, and the door starts to close. When the CLOSED sensor is detected, the FAST valve keeps the door closed.

7. When the train speed is above 5 kph, train line 23 is energised, and the LOCK valve is energised. This applies full train supply air pressure to the air cylinder to “lock” the door.

8. When the door close train line is de-energised and the train speed is less than 5 kph, then the FAST and LOCK valves will be de-energised, and the door will remain closed in the released mode.

e) Abnormal door control is performed as follows;

1. While the door is closing, and an emergency push button at the door position is depressed, the door valves will be de-energised, and the door released. The door may then be opened by hand. After a time limit, the door will continue the closing process. The closing may be interrupted 3 times, after which the door will power closed.

2. If the door is obstructed while closing, and does not attain the closed position within a time limit, the door will release, and the operation of the door will recycle as mentioned above.

3. If the train speed is less than 5 kph, and the doors are closed but not released, then depressing an emergency button will release the door. The door may then be hand opened. After a period of a few seconds, the door will close again.

4. If the train speed is greater than 5 kph, the doors will be closed and locked. Depressing an emergency button will have no effect on the door in this situation.

5. When the door close train line is de-energised (released) and the train speed is greater than 5 kph, then the FAST and LOCK valves will remain energised, until the train speed is less than 5 kph when the door will be released.

f) When the pantograph is lowered and the DCK or GCK is ON, then the door train lines are energised, and the doors will be closed. When the control keys are removed, the door train lines will be de-energised, and the doors will release.

g) If the power had to fail, so that the battery bus is de-energised, the doors will be released.

22. Coach Heater Control (Where installed) a) The Coach Controller controls the 3kV DC control individually in each Motor or

Trailer Coach, but the driver still has to switch the main Heater switch ON at the driver’s desk.

b) The heater circuit now consists of two circuits per coach.

c) When the temperature is less than 10 deg. C, the heaters will be switched on in a coach if the heaters have been switched ON from the driver'’ cab.

d) When the temperature increases above 10 deg, C, the heaters will be de-energised.

e) If any faults are detected on the heaters circuit, or any HV cover is not closed, an indication light will, be energised on the coach with the fault, as well as the driver’s indication panel.

23. Reset Functions a) The only function for the traction motor reset push button on 10m4 is to reset the

traction motor overload on the an other type 10M coach on the train set

b) If there is another type 10m motor (not a 10m4) on the train set and the traction-reset button is depressed the LINE SWITCHES will open and the MOL will reset on that coach.

c) All other reset circuits are standard as per 5M2A.

24. Windscreen Wiper and Washer a) A 110v/24v DC-to-DC converter powers the electric windscreen wiper and

washer. The motor has two speeds and is controlled by a switch on the driver’s desk.

b) A washer is integrated into the wiper blade. The washer motor is energised by a push button on the driver’s desk.

c) The DC-to-DC converter is energised when a DCK key is inserted somewhere on the train set.

25. Fire Suppression System a) The fire suppression system is powered from the trainset batteries, and is

controlled by the coach controller.

b) The system has been designed in such a way that an faulty fire system will not cause a trainset failure in service.

c) Two smoke detectors are installed into the HV compartment.

d) The fire system controls a fire bell in the driver’s cab of the coach where detection has occurred and a gas solenoid to discharge fire extinguishing gas into the HV compartment.

e) The Fire Warning light on the driver’s indication panel will be energised in the event of detection.

f) System Start up Operation and Self Test

1. On start up, the Coach Controller checks the validity of the smoke detectors, the fire bell and the gas solenoid.

2. While this process is taking place, the Fire Warning light on the driver’s desk will flash for 15 seconds.

3. If all systems are operational, the light will extinguish.

4. The fire system controls the air pressure to the HV frame, as well as the Traction Blowers and Pressurisation Fan.

5. Any fault is indicated with the Fire Warning light, where a code is used to indicate the faulty component as follows.

Smoke detector ON for 1 second, OF for 4 seconds

Optic Detector ON for 2 second, OF for 3 seconds

Fire Bell ON for 3 second, OF for 2 seconds

Gas Solenoid ON for 4 second, OF for 1 seconds

6. If a fault is detected, the fault has to be acknowledged before the system will allow the faulty coach to power.

7. Where possible, the fire bell will sound on the coach with the fault, so that it can be easily detected.

8. If the fire bell cannot sound, then the faulty coach can be detected as follows.

Switch on the DCK.

Determine on which coach the traction blowers are not running. This will be the faulty coach, as the fire system de-energises the blowers when a fault is detected.

9. Locate the Fire System control unit in the control cubicle, and press the

red RESET button. The blowers will then be energised, and air pressure supplied to the HV compartment.

10. When a Fire System has been reset in this way, the Fire Warning light will give a short Indication every few minutes as a reminder to report the problem.

g) Fire Detection and Acknowledge of False Alarm

1. If a fire is detected in service, the Fire Warning light will illuminate, and the Fire Bell will sound in the coach where the detection has taken place.

2. The trainset must be safely stopped and the problem coach detected.

3. If a fire has occurred, take appropriate action.

4. If it is a false alarm, then locate the fire system control unit in the control cubicle, and press the red RESET button. All systems will then function normally.

26. Speed Indication System a) The speed signal is obtained from the Siemens Traction Controller.

b) The signal is used to drive the driver’s speedometer, the guard’s speedometer, and to provide a speed signal to the public address system. The public address adjusts its output volume in proportion to the train speed.

c) The three-speedo system is connected in series.

27. Trunking Radio and Public Address Control a) The Trunking Radio is powered when either a DCK or a GCK is switched ON.

Operating Manual for Single Handle Master Controller System

SHMC Description 3.2 .doc 14-09-2005 Page 1

1 Introduction The Driving and Braking Controllers fitted to Class 5M2A motor coaches consist of two levers that are operated independently to control the powering and braking of a Class 5M2A train. These controllers have initially been installed into all series Class 10M Motor Coaches. A new driving and braking control system has been developed with the following features.

The Driving as well as Braking control levers have been incorporated into one Single Handle Master Controller (SHMC).

The driving control position is entered by pushing the handle forward, and pulled backwards to enter the braking control positions.

The Deadman system has been changed from a heavy spring-loaded lever to a small finger operated trigger switch.

The Deadman System has to be reset every time the controller handle is returned to the OFF position from a powering position.

The Deadman System incorporates a Vigilance System that requires to be reset after a time period.

The New Deadman system is named VIGIDRIVE, which is an acronym for “Vigilant Driver”.

An audible warning is given to notify the driver that the Deadman system must be reset.

The SHMC consists of a thumb switch that is used to hold a Notch position in Series or Parallel Powering Positions when depressed. The same switch when depressed will provide Exhauster Weak Field Operation when the Handle is in the OFF position.

The old standard Reverser Key is no longer required. A small special key is used to unlock the SHMC. When the controller is

unlocked, then the Driver’s Control Key Function (DCK-Control) may be turned on (The cab is then “Occupied”.), and then Forward or Reverse may be selected, and only then will Powering or Braking be permitted.

The same key is used to unlock the High Voltage Earthing Switches. A Separate Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve is provided to

enable either the Driver or a guard to apply the brakes in an emergency situation.

The Manual Emergency Brake Application Valves cannot be operated in unmanned cabs when a driver occupies another cab.

When the Guard turns on his GCK control key, then the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve in that cab will be made operational.

The SHMC is operated by the left hand. The new controller improves the ergonomics of the cab, and is easy to use.

The exhauster will run, and vacuum will be created. 2.3 Selecting Forward or Reverse

When forward or reverse is selected, then the Deadman system is made active. Grip the powering/braking lever, and depress the Deadman switch. Move the Forward/Reverse lever form Neutral to the desired direction. The Deadman function is now active. If the Deadman push button is released, in this mode, then an emergency brake application will be made after a short time delay; destroying the train pipe vacuum, and energizing the Exhauster Cutout Valves (EVV).

2.4 Powering Mode When either forward or reverse is selected, then the Powering/Braking lever may be moved into the Series, Parallel, or Weak Field positions, by pushing the lever forward – away from the driver. When the lever is in Series, Parallel or Weak Field position, the Traction controller will notch the coach automatically. If it is desired to HOLD the system in a specific step, then the Notch Push Button must be held in with the thumb. When this push button is released, then the notching sequence will continue automatically. The Notch Push Button is disabled in the Weak Field Position. To drive the train in full series, move the lever to the Series position, and allow the Traction Controller to Notch up to full series. To advance to Parallel, move the lever to the parallel position, and the Traction Controller will Notch up to full Parallel. If the lever is moved back to series, after parallel mode has been entered, then there will be no effect – the parallel notching will continue. To notch off, move the lever to the OFF Position. At this stage an alarm will sound reminding the driver that the Deadman System has to be reset. Release and again depress the Deadman push button. This will cause the system to reset and the alarm to stop. Failure to reset the system after a short time limit will cause an Emergency Brake Application.

2.5 Braking Mode When either forward or reverse is selected, then the Powering/Braking lever may be moved into the Lap, Brake On or Emergency positions, by pulling the lever backwards – towards the driver. When the lever is moved to the Lap position, the Exhauster Cutout Valves (EVV) are energised. When the lever is moved to the Brake On position, the Quick Service Application (QSA) Valves are energised and the train pipe vacuum is destroyed.

When the desired train pipe vacuum has been achieved, then moving the handle back to Lap position will maintain that vacuum level. The train brakes can thus be controlled by moving the lever between Lap and Brake On to comply with the braking requirements. If the lever is moved to the Emergency position, then the QSA Valves will be energised together with the Emergency Application Valve. To release the brakes, move the lever back to the OFF position. To create vacuum more quickly, depress the Notch push button in the OFF position, and the Exhauster will run at high speed.

2.6 Locking the Controller To lock the controller, proceed as follows:-

Place powering/braking lever into the OFF position, Place the Forward/Reverse Lever into the Neutral position. Place the DCK lever into the OFF position. This will cause the cab to be

“Vacated”. Turn the DCK key clockwise and remove the key.

All the levers are now in the locked position and cannot be moved.

3 VIGIDRIVE Description and Operation 3.1 General Description

The purpose of the Vigidrive system is to ensure that the driver is vigilant at all times while the system is active. The system has been designed for ease of operation and improved safety of the trainsets. There is a Deadman function, which will cause an Emergency Brake Application and Traction Shutdown after a short time when a Deadman trigger is detected. In addition there is a vigilance mode that requires to be reset after a period of about 50 seconds. Failure to reset the Vigilance mode will cause an Emergency Brake Application. The driver is given an audible alarm when the system needs to be reset. The system is deactivated in the following conditions:-

The cab is vacated. The train is stationary and the Forward/Reverse lever is in the Neutral

Position. 3.2 Deadman Mode

While the train is moving, or the Forward/Reverse lever is not in neutral, then the system is active, and the Deadman push button must be depressed at all times.

SHMC Description 3.2 .doc 14-09-2005 Page 5

3.2.1 System Validation and Reset

To verify that the Deadman system is functioning correctly, it is a requirement that the system must be reset when the Powering/Braking lever is moved from any powering position to the OFF position. When the OFF position is attained, an alarm will sound reminding the driver that the Deadman System has to be reset. To reset the system, release and again depress the Deadman push button. This will cause the system to reset and the alarm will stop. Failure to reset the system after a short time limit will cause an Emergency Brake Application and Traction Shutdown.

3.2.2 Deadman Operation

If the Deadman Push Button is released at any time while the system is active, an Emergency Brake Application will be made without any warning after a short time delay. If the Emergency Brake Application occurs while in the powering mode, then the Powering/Braking lever will have to be returned to the OFF position to reset the Deadman system. To allow for hand repositioning, the Deadman Push button may be released and again quickly depressed without the Deadman system triggering an Emergency Brake.

3.3 Vigilance Mode When the Deadman Push Button has been continuously depressed for a period longer than about 50 seconds, the alarm will sound reminding the driver that the Deadman System has to be reset. To reset the system, release and again depress the Deadman push button irrespective of the position of the Powering/Braking lever. This will cause the system to reset and the alarm will stop. Failure to reset the system after a short time limit will cause an Emergency Brake Application. If the Emergency Brake Application occurs while in the powering mode, then the Powering/Braking lever will have to be returned to the OFF position to reset the Deadman system. When the SHMC is in the OFF or any Braking position, and the Deadman Push Button is released and again depressed after even a very short time, the 50-second timer will be reset before the timer has expired. The 50-second timer will therefore only provide a warning signal and require to be reset if the push button has been depressed continuously for more than 30 to 50 seconds. When the SHMC is in any Powering position, and the Deadman Push Button is released and again depressed, there will be no effect on the 50-second timer. The timer will not be reset in this mode.

4 Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve Description The Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve is designed to be operational in a manned cab. Its function is to allow the driver or guard to make an emergency brake application without using the SHMC. When the lever is pulled up and pushed towards the left, the train pipe will be vented to atmosphere, the QSA Valves and EVV Valves will be energized, and a brake application will be made. The lever cannot be activated in an unmanned cab when another cab has been “occupied” by a driver. When the lever is in the open position, a small catch pin will ensure that the lever remains in the open position. The catch pin needs to be released to return the lever to the closed position. See photos below.

5 Power Test Procedure The SHMC require a modified Power Test Procedure as detailed below.

Switch on the DCK key, and move the DCK lever to the ON position. Create vacuum and test the performance with the Powering/Braking lever

in the OFF position. Test the working of the exhauster cut-out valve with the Powering/Braking

lever in the lap position. Thereafter test the operation of the quick service application valves (QSA's).with the Powering/Braking lever in the Brake On position.

Place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the EMERGENCY position. Ensure that the Train Pipe Vacuum is destroyed.

Move the Forward/Reverse lever into the forward position while depressing the Deadman push button. Move the Powering/Braking lever into the series position. Ensure that the line-switch indication light goes off. Release the Deadman push button while in the series position to test the Deadman feature. Ensure that the traction motor current is switched off. Move the Powering/Braking lever into the OFF position and reset the Deadman system.

With the brakes still fully applied, move the Forward/Reverse lever into the reverse position. Move the Powering/Braking lever into the series position and ensure that the line-switch indication light goes off Move the Powering/Braking lever into the OFF position and reset the Deadman system. Move the Forward/Reverse lever into the neutral position.

Switch the DCK lever to the OFF position. Place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the NORMAL

position. Ensure that the Train Pipe Vacuum remains zero. Switch the DCK lever to the ON position. Move the Forward/Reverse lever into the forward position while depressing

the Deadman push button. Release the Deadman push button and ensure that the vacuum is

destroyed by means of the Deadman Emergency Application Valve. Move the Forward/Reverse lever into the neutral position while depressing

the Deadman push button. Switch the DCK lever to the OFF position. Place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the

EMERGENCY position. Ensure that the Train Pipe Vacuum is destroyed, and return the lever to the Normal position.

6 Test for Continuous Vacuum Brakes The SHMC require a modified Brake Test Procedure as detailed below. After a trainset is prepared for service and before the train set is moved, the personnel must first carry out a continuous brake test.

Page 228: Circuit and Functional Description - PRASA Corporate Overhaul... · Class 10M5 Trainig Syllabus.doc 09/16/05 Page 3 of 3 4.13.5.21 Plugging 4.13.5.22 Accident Detection ... TW608A700

6.1 Purpose of Continuous Brake Test With this brake test the personnel can determine whether the vacuum

pipes are coupled throughout the train and if there are any blockages in the train pipe.

If some of the vacuum pipes are placed on the dummies and are therefore not coupled throughout the train, the exhauster will create vacuum in that portion of the train to which it is coupled, but when vacuum is destroyed, brakes will be applied to that portion of the train only.

Before commencing a trip with a trainset from the home depot, an out station or stabling yard, or after the train has been marshaled en route for any reason, the vacuum brake must be tested. The Metro Guard in conjunction with the Train Driver must carry out the continuous brake test.

6.2 The Continuous Brake Test The Metro Guard must go to the opposite side of the train. After unlocking the SHMC of the leading driving cab, and moving the DCK

lever to the ON position, the Train Driver must place the Powering/Braking lever into the emergency position.

The Metro Guard sends the bell signal 3 pause 3 to the Train Driver. The Train Driver places the Powering/Braking lever into the OFF position to create vacuum of at least 61 kPa. As soon as 61 kPa is registered on the vacuum gauge, the Metro Guard sends the bell signal 3 pause 3 to the Train Driver.

The Train Driver must move the DCK lever to the OFF position to eliminate the Quick Service Application Valves and then place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the EMERGENCY position. Atmospheric air flows from the brake application valve in the driving cab through the train.

The Metro Guard must watch the vacuum gauge and ensure that it does not take longer then 10 seconds for the vacuum to decline from 61 kPa to 15 kPa.

The Train Driver must wait 12 seconds before he places the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the NORMAL position. Observe the vacuum gauge that no vacuum is created while the DCK lever is in the OFF position. Thereafter he must place the DCK lever into the ON position.

The Metro Guard must ensure that 61 kPa is again created and then he must place the Manual Emergency Application Valve into the EMERGENCY position.

The Driver must watch the vacuum gauge and ensure that it does not take longer then 10 seconds for the vacuum to decline from 61 kPa to 15 kPa.

The Metro Guard must wait 12 seconds before he places the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve back into the NORMAL position and ensure that 61 kPa is again created and then sends the bell signal 3 pause 1 to the Train Driver.

Operating Manual for Single Handle Master Controller System

SHMC Description 3.2 .doc 14-09-2005 Page 9

If the Metro Guard observes that it takes more than 10 seconds for the vacuum to decline from 61 kPa to 15 kPa, he must not send the bell signal 3 pause 1 to the Train Driver, but he must advise the Train Driver of the circumstances in order that the train can be examined. Report the defect.

If the Train Driver observes that it takes more than 10 seconds for the vacuum to decline from 61 kPa to 15 kPa, then the defect must be reported.

7 Test for Deadman Operation While Moving Before commencing a trip with a trainset from the home depot, an out station or stabling yard, or after the train has been marshaled en route for any reason, the Deadman must be tested to ensure that Traction Current is cutoff, and Vacuum is destroyed simultaneously. The Driver must power the train, with the Emergency Application Valve in the Normal position. As soon as Traction Current is detected on the meter, the Driver must make a deadman application, by releasing the Deadman Trigger. The Driver must ensure that Traction Current is cut, and that the Train Pipe Vacuum is destroyed.

8 Cab Vacating Procedure When the DCK lever is placed into the OFF position, there is a possibility that the Train Pipe Vacuum will not be fully destroyed because the Deadman Circuit is bypassed when the Forward/Reverse lever is in the Neutral position and the train is stationary. To ensure that the Train Pipe Vacuum is fully destroyed before vacating the cab, the Driver must proceed as follows.

Switch the DCK lever to the OFF position. Place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the

EMERGENCY position. Wait until the Train Pipe Vacuum is destroyed. Place the Manual Emergency Brake Application Valve into the NORMAL

position.
