Summary

Description
English: HWH based WAP-4 loco - 22863 (lateral view) takes rest after pulling in 19305 (Indore-Howrah) Shipra Express into platform number - 12 at Howrah station yard !! (NOTE - It has no fixed link basically in winters !! But when it was 18 coachers , it was regularly spotted with MGS based WAM-4 locomotives and now its link is normally HWH based WAP-4 !! Once I had had found this train with ET based WAM-4 locomotives dates back) !!

WBL-85 pantograph : -

The WBL has been designed for the highest speed conditions. During test drives of nearly 187.5 m/h (300 km/h) it has proven its excellent running features. Through constructive means an optimal aerodynamic behavior was obtained, independent of the driving direction. The pantograph WBL has a very simple drive system, which allows it to be extremely light weight and easy to maintain. Dependent on customer specifications or area of application, the pantograph can be manufactured in different materials.

Features of the WBL pantograph : -

● through integrated pneumatic suspension – low total weight ● individual suspension of carbon strips ● pan head guidance with dampened center of rotation ● hydraulic damping of fame ● easy maintenance ● optional installation of fast lowering device possible

Technical Data : -

(a) Height in resting position : -
       – dependent on dimension
       – of insulator 23.6″ (600 mm)
(b) Length in resting position : - 92.9″ (2360 mm)
(c) Max. reach over resting position : - 96.9″ (2460 mm)
(d) Total weight:
       – without insulators = 264 lbs. (120 kg)
(e) Voltage : - 600 V – 25 kV
(f) Current : - 
       -- peak 2000 A
       -- nominal 1000 A
(g) Contact pressure : - adjustable from 11.25 – 36.5 lbs. (50 – 160 N)
(h) Suitable for speeds : - up to 187.5 m/h (300 km/h)
