Siemens to supply control centers to Korea National Railway
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has won a contract to deliver the main control centers, based on Spectrum Power, to the Korean engineering company EntechWorld headquartered in Seoul.
“A stable and reliable power
supply for the rail infrastructure is key to ensuring a safe, fast and
comfortable travel or commuting experience. Our software could be described as
the brain of the energy supply for the complex railway network. This helps our
customer Korea National Railway
optimize their business while at the same
time dealing with the challenge of ensuring smooth, reliable operation of
traction power supply and station facilities,” said
Sabine Erlinghagen, CEO of Digital Grid at Siemens Smart Infrastructure.
The scope of supply for the end customer Korea
National Railway
encompasses the main control center and the backup control center, which
will control and monitor general power of the railway network and ensure a smooth, reliable and economic operation of the
traction power supply for the locomotives. A special feature of the control
center for Korea National Railway is the integrated network
analysis system which makes sure that the entire power supply operates without
interruptions and that potential faults are detected at a very early stage. In
addition, Siemens offers an Operator Training Simulator (OTS) to help Korea
National Railway personnel take advantage of the many different applications
of the control center, including intelligent interlocking and switching
procedure management with process element disposal locking.
