Is Battery Electric Locomotive The Same As Electric Locomotive?

Battery electric locomotive is not equivalent to electric locomotive, but belongs to one kind of electric locomotive. The electric locomotive is divided into overhead electric locomotive and battery electric locomotive. Many people mistake battery cars as electric locomotives. In fact, the way of power supply is totally different. Battery battery cars need to use their own power supply devices to realize ore transportation. Specific differences are explained in detail below.

Battery electric locomotives use batteries to supply electricity. Battery charging generally operates in underground motor garage. When the battery pack of the electric locomotive is used to a certain extent, it is removed and replaced with a fully charged battery. Therefore, each locomotive must be equipped with 2-3 sets of batteries.

Advantages: No spark detonation danger, suitable for use in mines with gas; no need to wire, flexible use, for small output, irregular roadway transport system and roadway driving transport is very suitable.

Disadvantages: Charging equipment must be set up; large initial investment; low power efficiency, high transport costs.
