TRACTION ALTERNATOR
Power in the smallest spaces
Reliable, efficient and individual. Our permanent magnet synchronous and asynchronous generators are commonly used as electric power supply for DMUs. With our traction alternators, we provide reliable and powerful electric energy to traction motors. Our alternators transform mechanical energy into electric energy with a high level of efficiency in the least amount of space necessary.
Your benefit: Each alternator is engineered to suit your individual requirements, project specifications and intended use.
Why choose a TSA traction alternator for your vehicle?
‘Because we take into account all components of your vehicle and offer the best holistic solution for the electric drive.’
DMUs need innovative, vibration-resistant generators. With strong R&D capabilities and expertise, TSA designs products that can meet the requirements and certifications of all applications. For decades, we have continuously improved our traction generators. In all environmental conditions – our solutions are reliable. One of many reasons for this is our highly developed insulation system.
Another benefit: TSA’s traction alternators have less weight, but a high power density.
