Key Product Advantages: |
Dual-PowerSystem: Flexible & Efficient
The FGM500B adopts a dual-power mode of catenary + diesel engine, supporting zero-carbon emissionoperations with 1500V DC power supply from the overhead contact line, while also enabling efficientoperations in non-electrified sections and third-rail supply sections relying on internal combustion power.The redundant power design significantly enhances the vehicle's operational reliability and safety.
Compact Design withAll-Scenario Applicability
The FGM500B has an overall height not exceeding 3.2 meters and a width of 2.2 meters with excellentclearance passage capability. It can adapt to third-rail power supply lines and light rail operationenvironments, and can pass through fireproof doors, level crossings, and other restricted areas withoutinterruption, achieving full-scenario operational capability. The compact structure facilitates cross-linetransportation, effectively reducing transportation costs, and supports cross-regional resource sharing andservice expansion.
Optimized Operation Experience with StrongPerformance
The FGM500B is equipped with driver cabs at both ends, with a spacious layout and visibility compliantwith UIC 651 standards, accommodating up six additional personnel. It achieves a self-propelled top speedof 60 km/h, with the ability to climb 80% gradients and navigate R25m tight curves. The vehicle bodymeets EN12663 strength standards and can operate in tandem with a locomotive or as part of a train,offering flexible and convenient operation.
Exceptional Operational Performance and SignificantlyEnhancedEfficiency
Equipped with ultra-hard alloy blades and a new alloy grinding wheel, the FGM500B significantly enhances rail milling capability and surface finishing quality, offering high grinding efficiency with minimal sparks. The processed rail surface complies with EN13231 standards, featuring a 10% increase intool life, a 20% boost in operational efficiency, and an impressive 99% collection rate for chips and sparks.With expanded fuel tank and chip bin capacity, it ensures continuous operation for no less than 6 hours.
Rigorously Validation and Reliable Performance
The FGM500B has successfully passed its type test in Guangzhou Metro, jointly conducted with the National Engineering Laboratory. Southwest Jiao tong University completed a three-month testing period, covering dynamics, catenary current collection, and operational performance, with all indicators meeting the requirements and delivering excellent results.
Proven in Practice with High Praise
The FGM500B has completed operational assessments on Suzhou Metro Lines 1 and 4, as well as Guangzhou Metro Lines 3 and 7 since its decommissioning, with its performance receiving consistent recognition from customers.
