1.0 Foreword

Presently, Indian Railways manufacture four classes of 3-phase drive locomotives viz.WAG9, WAG9H, WAP5 and WAP7, based on the transfer of technology (ToT) from ABBSwitzerland (now Bombardier Transportation). These locomotives employ a distributed

architecture for control and data communication. There are seven racks (called bus-stations), which are interconnected through optical fibre cable and communicatingaccording to Multifunctional Vehicle Bus (MVB) protocol, which is an ABB proprietarystandard. Within each rack, there are many processor segments, which are connectedtogether through a wired serial bus, an electrical version of the MVB. Within eachprocessor segments, there can be more than one processor (multi-processor bus) sharingcommon Input/Output (I/O) devices through Advanced Multi-master System (AMS) bus.However, in the implementation adopted by Indian Railways, only one processor is usedin each segment of AMS bus. The complete electronics is generally termed as MICAS-S2,an acronym for MIC rocomputer A utomation S ystem - S eries- 2. Communication betweentwo locomotives is done through a serial bus having data transmission as per HDLCprotocol. The control hardware, software and protocols are proprietary products of ABB.MICAS-S2 control cards are being manufactured in India by Industry partners andcontrol software is administered by CLW. However, being proprietary in nature, any

basic change needed to handle the obsolescence in electronic component and softwareindustry, is not possible due to non-availability of design knowledge and source codes offirmware and operating system, development platform which is DOS based also cant besustained due to advances in PC technology. Flexibility for third party equipmentinterface, which is the order of the day, is impossible due to the rigid and hard codedarchitecture of hardware and software. The technology itself is of mid 1980 vintage.Presently used architecture is shown in Appendix-1 for appreciation. Distribution ofvarious types of PCBs in each rack can be seen at Appendix-2 to 5 and the busarchitecture is given at Appendix-6 to 9. Appendix-10 gives the brief definitions of theterms used along with the instructions to the Bidders.

2.0 Need for Change

As traction environment needed specially designed and tested hardware, thedevelopment remained almost proprietary with the rolling stock Contractors. Due to this,interchangeability of sub-assemblies or equipment became almost impossible acrossContractors. With fast obsolescence creeping the electronics industry, sustenance oftechnology during the lifetime of the rolling stock became the key issue. Initially, noglobal standard existed for ensuring Contractor independent inter-changeability oftraction electronic sub-systems, though, various normative standards existed for variousproduct design and testing like transformer, converter etc.

Need was hence felt to standardize the control hardware and software to ensure inter-changeability of equipment from different Contractors, and accordingly, IEC haspublished a standard for open control architecture in rail vehicles, viz. IEC-61375, which

is termed as the Train Communication Network (TCN) . It defines the requirementsof various layers of communication and interface.

In order to sustain the control system in a rolling stock during its lifetime, i.e. over 35years, it becomes necessary to update the technology continuously and tackle the

obsolescence and Contractor dependence. This is not possible with the presentproprietary control system used by Indian Railways, as already, it became obsolete in theglobal market. Hence, it was decided to standardise and develop appropriate hardwareand software as per IEC-61375 TCN open standard for WAG9, WAG9H, WAP7 andWAP5 class of three phase locomotives to start with.

3.0 System Requirements

3.1 Through this specification, it is intended to procure only the vehicle control units. Atpresent, the vehicle control units are housed in two racks viz. rack type HV B494 A33 andHV B494 A34 for vehicle control units VCU1 and VCU2 respectively as shown at,

Appendix-3, Appendix-4 Appendix-6 & Appendix-7. Only these two units are to bereplaced with appropriate control rack or racks, suiting the control functions beinghandled today without any compromise.

3.2 The present control rack for Traction Converter and Auxiliary Converter given at Appendix-1, Appendix-4, Appendix-7 and Appendix-8 are MICAS-S2 based. These will besuitably replaced by IEC-61375 TCN compatible control system in parallel, but through aseparate contract. The offered vehicle control racks shall communicate with TCNcompatible converter and auxiliary converter control to be procured from third partiesand shall also communicate with existing MICAS-S2 based control racks of traction and

auxiliary converter.

It will be necessary that the contractor shall be willing to work together with othercontractor of Traction Converter and Auxiliary Converter to ensure compatibilitybetween VCU and Traction / Auxiliary Converter. The detailed list of signals andprotocols etc. shall need to be jointly documented.

3.3 The rack shall be of standard dimensions, example 19 euro rack, either 3U or 6U height& standard 160 mm depth. The back plane shall be VME or any standard back plane.The rack shall be protected against ingress of dust and water in accordance with IP54.

3.4 The control rack shall have processor, digital and analog I/Os. The digital I/Os shall bedesigned to have minimum power loss within the board and shall work in a wide inputrange as defined for the battery voltage variation in IEC-60571. PCB mountable relayoutputs are expected, which shall be highly reliable for traction applications. Analog I/Omodules shall be able to take a variety of signals like voltage, current, NTC/PTC, pulseetc. Self-check, calibration and plausibility check features shall be incorporated.

3.5 The number of processors, I/Os and the architecture has to handle all the existing tasksat the defined task cycle, and also shall have spare capacity for processor & I/Os to takefuture load, if needed.

3.26 In the existing system, the electronic racks are mounted within a sealed casing located atlow voltage cubicles (SB1 & SB2). The air from the machine room blower indirectly coolsthe casing. In this offer also, the racks are to be mounted at the same locations to avoidchange in the locomotive cable harness. The Contractors may choose to adopt the samemechanical system as existing today, which means, the racks are mounted within thecasing and the casing is cooled indirectly. In such a case, supply of rack integrated withcasing and heat exchanger shall be part of the supply. While the casing is available inIndia, heat exchanger used is from BEHR/Germany. The offered rack shall be having itsown cooling and ventilation arrangement. The physical location of present VCU1 and

VCU2 shall be retained, as mentioned in Cl. 3.11. The offered VCU racks are to be

mounted with in the existing mechanical space envelope. Presently the rack which comesin a casing is indirectly cooled by a heat exchanger mounted on this casing through whichthe machine room air passes. The rack is a 6U card cage. While the location has to beretained with in the constraints of existing space envelope and mounting arrangement,for the reasons explained in Cl. 3.11, the requirement of the cooling may be met either byutilizing the existing arrangement or by providing a suitable alternative with in existingspace envelope and airflow. Supply of rack, casing and the cooling arrangement is part ofthe scope of supply.

The essence is as follows: New hardware are to be accommodated in casing on which SB1/2 cubicles will bemounted like used presently .

The Contractor may or may not utilize the present indirect cooling arrangementusing MR air and BEHR Radiator depending on the design. In case the heatexchanger is not required, opening has to be suitably blanked at this point by theContractor .

The Contractor has to make his own arrangement for internal circulation of air toavoid hot spots. Presently, a fan tray is mounted below the rack.

Casing will be within the scope of supply . External heat exchanger is also part of the supply in case the design so needs it.

3.27 IR prefers to retain the existing cable looms with connectors (for I/Os and battery power)without any change, so that the same can be plugged on to the new system underconsideration. The Bidders are expected to study the present arrangement and expectedto comment specifically about the retention of present arrangement without any change.

3.28 Addressing of the PCBs within a rack is a matter of design. This would meangeographical addressing or dynamic addressing.
