2.1. ELECTRIC MULTIPLE UNIT – EMU 3400

• General Description

The Electric Multiple Unit – EMU 3400 is used for urban transportation in the north of

Portugal. The railway urban service from Oporto to the cities of Braga and Guimarães (to the

north) and from Oporto to Aveiro (to the south), is provided by thirty four railcars of EMU

3400 type. The UME operation is managed by the Portuguese Railways, CP – Porto, and

started its commercial service in 2002.

This electrical railcar is formed by four articulated vehicles as can be seen in Figure 1. The

railcar and its bogies were developed for the standard Iberian track gauge of 1668 mm and a

maximum speed of 140 km/h.

Electric energy is used by railcar traction. The electric energy is obtained from the 25 kV AC

50 Hz infrastructure catenary through pantograph installed in one of the vehicles. The EMU

has six three-phase asynchronous motors delivering a maximum output at the wheel of 1400

kW.

• Mechanical and Electrical Characteristics

The railcar has two different power supplies available: 230 VAC and 110 VDC. The first one,

230 VAC, is directly dependent of the main circuit of the power supply system. This tension

is achieved from the catenary (25 kV). The second one, 110 VDC, is from the auxiliary circuit

of the power supply system. This tension is obtained from the batteries installed in the

railcar which are charged by the charger integrated in the auxiliary converters. The 110 VDC

can vary between +25% and -30%.

The railcar is composed by five bogies, being the three central ones motor bogies while the

remaining two being trailer bogies. The motor bogies are Jacobs type and each one supports

two carbodies on its four airsprings suspension system. The trailer bogies are conventional

end trailer bogies and together with the Jacobs bogies support each carbody end. In the

Figure 3 two types of bogies are presented.
