EMD SD70 Norfolk Southern (PRR)

EMD SD70 Norfolk Southern (PRR)

SD70 in Nofolk Southern color scheme with PRR written under the cab side numbers
Performance Specifications:-
4500 HP locomotive equipped with EMD's 16-710G3C-T1 engine
EPA Tier-1 emissions certified
Tractive and braking effort capability
137,000 lbs continuous TE
175,500 lbs starting TE
81,000 lbs braking effort

Performance Impact:-
The SD70 provides unit reduction, fuel savings and additional revenue tonnage capability over SD40-2 locomotives
Train simulation results and actual field demonstrations indicate:
3 SD70's can replace 5 SD40-2's in high tractive effort operations
Operation of fewer units results in significant maintenance and operating savings

Reliability and Serviceability:-
92-day maintenance intervals
Oil filled gear cases
Tapered roller or support bearings
AC motors double traction motor life
No running maintenance required
No brushes, commutator, nor rotor insulation
No flashovers/ground relays
Bogie inverter control
High level of reliability with less parts
HTCR Radial Bogie
Bogie overhaul extended to one million miles
Significant wheel and rail wear reduction
6 year engine overhaul period
EM2000 microprocessor control
increased speed and efficiency
reduced parts and increased reliability
Improved diagnostic capability
Safety Aspects
Lowest cab sound and vibration levels available (WhisperCab™)
Integral safety lockouts and discharge systems for inverter system
Satisfies all FRA/AAR crashworthiness requirements
Impact resistant fuel tank minimizes spills and leakage
1 million lb. buff load capacity
1 million lb. collision posts for increased crew protection
Frame mounted anti-climbers improve crew and equipment protection

Basic Features:-
Engine 16-710G3C-T1
High efficiency turbocharger
Electronic fuel injection
Tier-1 emissions certified
AC Traction Technology
Simple, robust motor design
Higher efficiency - lower temperatures
Doubles motor overhaul interval
Utilizes bogie-controlled DC traction inverters for higher inherent reliability

EM2000 Microprocessor Control:-
Utilizes 32-bit microprocessor
Reduction in modules and components compared to 60-series and Dash-2
Improved reliability and performance
Information can be downloaded to a laptop computer
Flexible and expandable to accommodate future system enhancements

HTCR Radial Bogie:-
Angles of attack and curving loads are significantly lower than conventional 3 axle bogies
Reduced risk of derailment due to lower lateral rail forces
Permits operation of 6-axle locomotives in territory typically restricted to 4-axle locomotives
Reduced wear of components extends bogie overhaul intervals to one million miles

Specifications:-
Total weight on rails - 398,000 lbs.
Height - top of rail to top of cooling fan - 15'8
Overall length - 74 ft.
