Vibration and High Voltage
Testing on Electric Metro System in Singapore
ALSTOM Transport Singapore is a promoter of
sustainable mobility, Alstom Transport develops
and offers the most comprehensive range of
systems, equipment and services in the rail
sector. Alstom Transport manages all aspects of
transport systems, including rolling stock,
signalling and infrastructure, as well as
offering its clients turnkey solutions.
Overview
The new trains in Singapore are part of Land
Transport Authorithy`s efforts to enhance
existing rail capacity for the coming years. Out
of the 42 trains, 18 trains are aimed at the
North East Line (NEL) of the network while the
Circle Line (CCL) will receive the 24 trains.
This will improve fleet capacity by 60-70% on
both lines.

The Gantner Solution
Once train cars shipped to Singapore they carrry
out testing before they put them in to
operation.
Test Measurement and Control system from Gantner
Instruments equipped with multi-channel analog
input modules and Dynamic High Voltage input
modules with high isolations for Train testing
for the complete driverless metro system
designed and constructed by Alstom which are
operating on NEL (North East Line) and CCL
(Circle Line) Railway lines. The Alstom
Metropolis C830 are the second generation of
communication-based train control (CBTC) rolling
stock currently using in Mass Rapid Transit (MRT)
lines to meet the growing demand of passengers
in Singapore.

Q.brixx station
The powerful Q.brixx station is a programable test controller with logger functions.
Q.brixx A101
The Q.brixx module A101 with two universal
inputs was selected for vibration
measurement to provide fast high accuracy
digitalization.
Q.brixx A107
The high density Q.brixx module A107 was
selected to provide precise, isolated, noise
free strain gage measurements.
Q.brixx A128
The Q.brixx module A128 with 4 galvanically
isolated input channels was selected for
high voltage testing.
