SUMINISTRO ELÉCTRICO DE 265 VOLTIOS

3CONECTE EL CONDUCTO PARA CABLES

1Utilice el orificio redondo ubicado en la parte inferior de la caja de conexiones para conectar el conducto de cables que proviene del circuito derivado. Retire la tapa del orificio, ajuste el

conducto y acerque los cables hacia el interior de la caja de conexiones. Deje 6″ libres de cable

al final del conducto para que puedan realizarse las conexiones.

Conducto para cables

2Si se van a utilizar fusibles y portafusiles, el orificio de la parte superior de la caja está destinado para instalar un portafusiles Buss. Asegúrese de que el fusible y el portafusiles tengan la misma potencia de servicio que el circuito derivado. Las terminales del fusible pueden soldarse en el lugar o conectarse

mediante un conector a presión hembra (receptáculo) de 1/4″ listado en UL.

4VUELVA A INSTALAR LA CAJA DE CONEXIONES

Para volver a instalar la caja de conexiones, encaje las pestañas izquierdas en la cara derecha inferior en la unidad, alineando los orificios de los tornillos en la parte superior e inferior, y atornille los dos tornillos hasta que el sistema quede asegurado. Asegúrese de que todos los cables hayan quedado dentro de la caja y que no estén enganchados entre la caja y la unidad. El cable a tierra verde de la unidad DEBE estar conectado al cable a tierra

del circuito derivado.

Realice todas las conexiones de cables utilizando técnicas o conectores apropiados listados en UL (negro con negro, blanco con blanco y verde con verde).

5VUELVA A INSTALAR LA TAPA

DE LA CAJA DE CONEXIONES

1Con cuidado deposite todos los cables y conexiones dentro de la caja de conexiones. Asegúrese de que no hayan quedado conexiones sueltas o cables expuestos sin aislamiento.

2Coloque la tapa de la caja de conexiones en su lugar. Reponga los dos tornillos y ajuste bien.

3Arroje la parte sin usar del enchufe y del conjunto de cables.

3800 specifications

The GE 3800 is a sophisticated locomotive developed by General Electric, notable for its advanced technological features and robust design. As a member of the GE Dash 8 series, it was primarily built to cater to freight transport needs, delivering reliability and performance across various terrains.

One of the most noteworthy features of the GE 3800 is its powerful GE FDL-16 engine. This V16 four-stroke engine is known for its efficiency and durability, producing a significant amount of horsepower while maintaining low emissions. The engine's design allows for easy maintenance, which is essential for minimizing downtime in freight operations. With the capability of generating up to 3,800 horsepower, the GE 3800 can handle heavy loads while providing excellent tractive effort, making it ideal for freight-hauling.

Another critical technology integrated into the GE 3800 is its advanced electronic control system. The locomotive is equipped with a Digital Electronic Control (DEC) system that monitors and optimizes various functions, such as engine performance, braking, and traction control. This system enhances the locomotive's responsiveness, ensuring better handling of freight trains, especially in varied weather conditions.

The GE 3800 also features a robust braking system that includes dynamic and air brakes. The dynamic braking system allows for energy conservation, converting kinetic energy into electrical energy during deceleration, which can be reused when accelerating or transferred to the grid. This feature not only enhances safety but also contributes to lower operational costs.

In terms of design, the GE 3800 boasts a sturdy chassis that allows it to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty freight transport. Its aerodynamic profile reduces drag, improving fuel efficiency during operations. The locomotive is equipped with advanced wheel and axle assemblies that enhance stability and reduce wear and tear, prolonging the lifespan of the train’s components.

Safety is a primary concern in locomotive design, and the GE 3800 includes numerous safety features such as redundant systems, crash-worthy designs, and advanced signaling and communication technologies. These elements ensure that the locomotive can operate safely in busy rail networks.

Overall, the GE 3800 is a blend of power, efficiency, and modern technology, making it a preferred choice for freight operators around the world. Its combination of a powerful engine, advanced electronic control systems, robust construction, and safety features ensures that it remains a significant player in the rail transport industry.
