traction motors into the system. For operators who wish to re-engine
their locomotives, PAU Traction offers a variety of benefits. The
installation of the new engine is much simplified, because the existing
locomotive control system is used. PAU Traction also uses the existing
safety functions, so that the certification of the repowered locomotive by
the manufacturer is much easier. The retrofitter receives an electronics
package from MTU that meets the latest safety standards and has been
tested and approved by the authorised German inspection authority
TÜV. Under normal operating conditions, PAU Traction provides low fuel
consumption and offers the driver precise control of the tractive effort to
ensure very good locomotive running characteristics.
