Erfurt

Tramlink low-floor urban railway

Erfurter Verkehrsbetriebe AH, Germany

In 2018, Erfurter Verkehrsbetriebe AG (EVAG) ordered a total of 14 multi-articulated, 100% low-floor TramLink light rail vehicles for operation in Erfurt. The low-floor design, several multi-purpose areas, five double-leaf doors and two single-leaf doors enable a fast passenger flow. The light rail vehicles are 42.5 metres long, 2.3 metres wide, offer space for 248 passengers and meet the requirements of BOSTRAB.

 

Project features

TramLink is a modern and modular multi-articulated tram vehicle characterised by an innovative, real-axle bogie that guarantees a smooth and comfortable ride.

Kiepe Electric supplies reliable and innovative technology for the vehicles. Kiepe's equipment includes the complete vehicle control and drive technology. This also includes engine heat utilisation for heating the passenger compartment and air conditioning for the passenger and driver compartments.

CO2 sensors ensure that energy can be saved for air treatment with a recirculating air system based on these sensors; only as much fresh air is heated or cooled as is necessary due to the air quality. Kiepe Electric also supplies the interior video surveillance system and an exterior camera system for monitoring the rear doors, passenger infotainment and a modern control display in the driver's cab.
