Cab Air Conditioning system for Diesel Electrical Locos.

RDSO has developed cab air conditioning system for Diesel Electrical locos in the year 2008, and started installing the same at DLW.

      Cab air conditioning system includes one AC unit in the driver’s cab with input power supplied by 

an auxiliary source.  An inverter of 5 KVA capacity is therefore required to convert 72V DC to 230V, 

50 Hz, single-phase supply suitable for input to these motors.

The locomotive cab air conditioner assembly shall be used to provide interior cab     temperatures in a

 comfortable range throughout the year, thus will ultimately boost the performance of loco pilots.
