Energy conversion
Expert in on-board energy conversion for railways
The development of electric and hybrid motors is leading to the growth of power electronics in trains. MAFELEC and PETERCEM have been present for 40 years in on-board energy conversion and in substations.
Power electronics solutions for railways
From current and voltage measurement to safety functions of insulation, voltage detection and switching, we address both standard and specific needs. Our application and usage oriented approach allows MAFELEC to propose multifunctional products that simplify the use and optimize the global cost of the solution.
With PETERCEM, we offer a wide range of current transducers, voltage transducers, isolators and switches that are recognized by the main integrators in the sector.
Compliance and qualification of train solutions
Our solutions are designed according to the railway standards: EN 50155, EN 45545, etc…
