Traction Transducers

Modes of public transport such as high-speed trains, city transit systems (metro, trams, trolleybusesâ€Â¦) and freight trains and also diesel electric locomotives provide the ideal solution to meet the increased demand for more mobility whilst helping to fight pollution and traffic congestion. Power electronics is essential to driving and controlling energy in these systems. LEM transducers provide control and protection signals to power converters and inverters that regulate energy to the electric motors (for propulsion) and to the auxiliaries (for air-conditioning, heating, lighting, electrical doors, ventilators etc). New requirements are continuously emerging in the railway industry, such as the demand for energy measurement, track objects monitoring and a need to constantly improve maintenance infrastructures.
