The NW25-200 passenger car electrical package is designed to be a reasonably simple, yet complete, power control center for use on dome cars and other cars with a simple electrical demand and a need for two zones of heating/air conditioning control.
The features of the NW25-200:
- Amtrak and transit compliant HEP Main Breaker for 480 volt power coming from the head-end power system.
- Five 480 volt, three phase circuit breaker positions (not including the HEP main breaker).
- Three-phase power monitor prevents damage to HVAC equipment by preventing operation when power supplied to passenger car has incorrect phase rotation or voltage imbalance.
- Forty-Two 120 volt, single phase circuit breaker positions, which may be combined into 208 volt single phase or 208 volt three phase circuits.
- HVAC Control Panels are the same as used on the NW25-100 package. This provides ease of use and conformity in appearance with single-level cars that use that Northwest Rail Electric control package.
- Control for four HVAC stages in each zone:
- Single stage air conditioning and three stages of heating, or two stages of air conditioning and two stages of heating. Standard configuration is two stages of overhead heat and one stage of baseboard heat.
- Short-Cycle Timer to prevent Air Conditioning Compressor Overheating.
- Other HVAC stage configurations may be built to custom order
- Blower speed increases during air conditioning stage to prevent coil freezing. A single speed blower option is available as well.
- Space provided for one additional HVAC stage or dehumidification to be added as an option
- Current Temperature Display and Set Point Temperature Display
- Illuminated switches provided for automatic or manual operation of HVAC system, and provide quick visual information on system operation
- 24 volt control voltage circuit breaker
- Two Emergency lighting circuit breakers and relays provided for automatic operating of emergency lighting system. There is one zone of emergency lighting for each control panel.
- Custom-made engraved plastic labels can be made to order for whatever electrical loads are in the car.
- Built-in 480 volt to 24 volt transformer supplies all low voltage electrical equipment on the NW25-200.
- All panel covers are powder coated (not painted) to provide a high-quality, long-lasting finish.
- Hinged cover over control components provided with strap to allow for in-place hands-free service.
