BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT CLW
Chittaranjan Locomotive Works is a goverment-owned electric locomotive manufacturer based in India.
It is located at Chittaranjan in Burdhwan. It is one of the largest locomotive manufacturers in the world.
Founded in 1950 the Indian Railway owned industrial unit is named after the Indian freedom-fighter
Chittaranjan Das.
The factory commenced the production of steam locomotives on the 26 January 1950 ,in collaboration
with the North British Locomotive Company. On November 1, 1950 Indian first steam rail-engine
produced by the company (a WG class locomotive) to the freedom fighter Deshbandhu Chittranjan Das.
WHAT IS LOCOMOTIVE?
A locomotive or engine is a railway vehicle
that provides the motive power for a train. The
word originates from the Latin loco – "from a
place", ablative of locus, "place" + Medieval
Latin motivus, "causing motion", and is a
shortened form of the term locomotive engine.
A ELECTRIC LOCOMOTIVE is a type
of railway locomotive in which the prime
mover is a electric .
SOME BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT LOCOMOTIVES

IMPORTANT PARTS OF LOCOMOTIVES
The entire ELECTRIC LOCO is divided into
mainly two sections :(1) Mechanical
Section(2) Electrical Section
1. WHEEL AND AXLE
Wheels and axle are manufactured of cast steel.
Railway wheels sit on the rails without guidance.
the flanges should not touch the rails.
The wheel tire is coned .
Rail head slightly curved as shown in the diagram.
the dia. of wheel is 1092 mm
2. TRACTION MOTOR
A traction motor is an electric motor used for propulsion of a
vehicle, such as an electric locomotive or electric roadway vehicle.
These motors were traditionally DC but the development of modern
power and control electronics has led to the introduction of 3-phase
AC motors.
Electric locomotives generally have two or more dc or ac motors.
In these locomotives , power is collected from an electric trolley
which is running on an overhead wire. The overhead wire can carry
both types of supply ac as well as dc. Indian railway also uses both
types of supply systems :
(a) AC system- 25 kv single phase 50 hz ac supply
(b) DC system- 1500 V dc supply
Only western zone and central zone of railway
3. PANTOGRAPH
A pantograph is a device that collects electric
current from overhead lines for electric trains or
trams.
It is spring loaded and pushes a contact shoe up
against the contact wire to draw the electricity
needed to run the train
Pantographs are typically operated by compressed
air from the BABY compressor system, either to raise
the unit and hold it against the conductor
4. BRAKES
Mainly three types of brakes are used-
(a). Air Brake System
(b). Regenerative Brake System.
(c). Parking type
(a). AIR BRAKES
This braking systems use compressed air as the
force to push blocks on to wheels or pads on to
discs.
(b).REGENERATIVE BRAKES
During braking, the traction motor connections
are altered to turn them into electrical
generators.
The motor fields are connected across the main
traction generator and the motor armatures are
connected across the load.
The rolling locomotive or multiple unit wheels
turn the motor armatures, and the motors act as
generators, either sending the generated
current back into the supply.
Regenerative braking will be working up to
speed of 15 km/hr.
(c). PARKING BRAKES
In 3 phase loco hand brake are not provided.
For parking the loco new type of brakes are
available on this loco called parking brake.The
great feature of parking brake is that it remain
applied to indefinite time as per the
requirement in absence of air pressure .It's
function is just opposite to that of
conventional brakes i.e it remains released
5. BOGIE FRAMES
The Bogie is not, as many people wrongly say it
to be, a railway passenger vehicle unit. That is a
coach, compartment, carriage or car. A bogie is a
unit under a coach or a locomotive body which
houses the wheels, suspension etc. Usually there
are be two bogies for a coach and two or three
for a locomotive with each bogie housing four or
six wheels
Bogies serve a number of purposes
-Support of the rail vehicle body
-Stability on both straight and curved track
-Minimizing generation of track irregularities
and rail abrasion
6. SHELL AND CABIN
Shell – The housing body of the
locomotive.Where all equipment is kept under
shell body like IGBT, compressor, etc.
Driving Cab – The “Cockpit” of the locomotive,
where the loco pilot (driver) and assistant and
any other sit and drive the loco. All controls
are located here. The cluster containing the
controls to drive the locomotive is called a
“Control Stand”.
Some other Components of an ac locomotive
CATENARY:- This is the Over head Wire of Special Cross section of area.
CIRCUIT BREAKER:- To disconnect the engine from the line side in case of
some fault.
POWER CONVERTER:- Power convertor converts the single phase 25KV AC
supply into 3 phase AC with variable voltage (max. 2150v) and variable
frequency (65 to 132 Hz) feed to the traction motor.
AUXILIARY CONVERTER:- Auxiliary converter converts single phase 1000 volts
supply into three phase 415 volts to different three phase auxiliaries.
RECTIFIERS:- Conversion of AC power into DC power.
SMOOTHING REACTORS:- Any ripple found on the output side of the rectifier
are eliminated by this fitted after the rectifier.
TRANSFORMER:- It is installed in locomotive for step down the voltage
according to threquirement of motor.
TRACTION MOTOR BLOWER:- It is a blower for ventilation of traction motor
(connected with bogie 1&2) by forced air.
MAIN COMPRESSOR :- It is a pressure creating equipment for necessary
pressure for entire pneumatic circuit of the loco.
