    Parts of loco

    Function of components
    Main Generator

    The diesel engine drives the main generator which provides the
    power to move the train. The alternator generates DC electricity
    which is used to provide power for the traction motors mounted on
    the trucks (bogies).
    Auxiliary Generator
    This provides DC power for lighting, heating, air conditioning,
    dining facilities etc. on the train.
    Motor Blower
    Motor blower provides air which is blown over the
    traction motors to keep them cool during periods of
    heavy work.
    Air Intakes
    The air for cooling the locomotive's motors is drawn in
    from outside the locomotive. It has to be filtered to
    remove dust and other impurities

    Batteries

    The diesel engine needs a battery to start it and to provide electrical power for lights.
    Traction Motor
    Traction motors are provided on the axles to give the final drive. These motors were
    traditionally DC
    Fuel Tank
    The fuel tank is normally under the loco frame and will have a capacity of 3000 lts.
    Air Reservoirs
    Air reservoirs containing compressed air at high pressure are required for the train
    braking and some other systems on the locomotive. These are often mounted next to
    the fuel tank under the floor of the locomotive.
    Drive Shaft

    The main output from the diesel engine is transmitted by the drive shaft to the
    generators at one end and the radiator fans and compressor at the other end.
    Radiator and Radiator Fan
    Water is distributes around the engine block to keep the temperature within the most
    efficient range for the engine.

    Air brake

    Air Brake System (Loco Brake System)


    SA-9 Valve : for loco brakes only
    Release position :-running loco is in released position
    Application position :- stopped pressure of 3.5kg/cm2
    Vacuum Brake System: A-9 Valve : for loco & train brake system
    1. Release position: - pressure to 5.0kg/cm2of MR. vacuum is about 55-60 cm.
    2. Minimum position:- pressure in brake pipe= 4.5 kg/cm2, vacuum =50-55 cm
    3. Service application:- Brake pipe pressure = 3.5 kg/cm2 , Vacuum =25-30 cm
    4. Over reduction:- Brake pipe pressure = 2.5 kg/cm2, Vacuum =20 cm
    5. Emergency:- Brake pipe pressure = 0.0kg/cm2, engine is in idle condition

    EXPRESSOR

    Expresser is made with combination of EXhauter +

    comPRESSOR.
    It is located at free end of the engine block and driven through
    the extension shaft attached to the engine crank shaft.
    Exhauster suck air from train pipe to create required amount
    of vacuum to brake system.
    There are 6 cylinder are arranged in a W type, 2 cylinder in
    vertical, 4 in V shaped.

    Turbo Supercharger

    It is used increase the amount

    of air pushed into cylinder.


    Pressure of air is 3-6 kg/cm2
    It gives a 50% increase in
    engine power.
    Advantage is that it gives more
    power with no increase in fuel
    cost because it uses exhaust
    gas as driving power.
    It also increase the air pressure,
    better ignition & efficiency.
    CAUSES OF TURBO
    CHARGER
    Intermediate casing, turbine
    casing, nozzle failure.

    FUEL OIL SYSTEM

    WATER COOLING SYSTEM

    Failure Analysis
    Ultra sonic test
    In ultrasonic testing very short ultrasonic pulse waves

    with center frequencies ranging from 0.1 15 MHz.


    US testing is performed on steel ,metals and alloy.
    It is a form of non destructive testing.
    Zyglo test
    Zyglo test is a of non destructive testing
    It is quick & accurate process for locating surface flaws

    such as shrinkage cracks, fatigue cracks, grinding cracks


    etc.
    Zyglo test is performed on metals & non metals materials
    like Al, Mg, Cu, brass, bronze, sintered carbide, non
    magnetic alloys, ceramics, plastic & glass.

    Schedule Examination

    Minor Schedule

    Trip -1 & Trip -1

    Fuel oil, lube oil& filter are checked.

    Expressor discharge valve.

    Record oil level in the axle caps for suspension bearing.

    Turbo super charger is checked.

    Under frame are checked.


    Major Schedule

    Run engine; check operation of air system safety valves & expressor crank case lube
    oil pressure.

    Stop engine; carry out dry run operational test, check FIP timing & uniformity of
    rack setting & correct if necessary.

    Engine crankcase cover:- remove crankcase cover and check for any foreign
    material, renew gasket.

    Clean strainer & filters, replace paper elements.

    Compressor air & vacuum system:- check, clean and recondition rings, intake
    strainers, & inlet, exhaust valve, lube oil relief valve. Drain, clean & refill crankcase.

    Roller bearing axle boxes. Check for loose bolts, lose of grease. sign of overheating.
    Remove covers,. Carry out ultrasonic test of axles.

    Renew airflow indicator valve.

    SPECIAL PLANT
    To provide pollution free environment, an ETP is

    installed.
    Various effluents emitted from diesel shed are passed
    through the plant.
    Pollution free water is collected & Water is used for non
    drinking purposes gardening & washing of the
    locomotives.
