Electric multiple units
Our mission is to fulfil the current and future expectations of domestic and foreign owners of rolling stock through the construction, modernisation and repair of rolling stock and by ensuring good quality and user satisfaction.
Electric multiple units – EMU PESA Bydgoszcz SA is the first Polish manufacturer that designed and delivered the first modern multi-unit, single-space EMU in 2004. The vehicle was equipped with a modern asynchronous drive and control, pneumatic springing of bogies as well as an interesting and comfortable interior. PESA, developing its own R&D department and using its experience as well as getting to know the needs of the clients, has produced several series of EMU vehicles which were very well received by the users and travellers. When designing the next generation EMU, the company mainly focused on the safety of travellers and personnel. PESA is one of the first companies to introduce into mass production the rolling stock structures fulfilling the highest European safety and strength standards (EN 12663 and EN 152227). This is our own patented solution. Apart from safety, the comfort of passengers and personnel is also the key aspect. PESA EMU are characterised by an interesting design, modern, single-space, air-conditioned interiors, equipped with comfortable seats, a dynamic passenger information system transmitted on electronic display screens and an automatic audio system. The vehicles are equipped with an intercom ensuring the communication of the passengers with the driver as well as an ad broadcast system and a passenger counter. They include internal and external monitoring with a preview and recording in the driver’s cabin, modern online diagnostic systems allowing real-time tracking of the operation of the most important vehicle components, limiting to a minimum the possibility of a
failure and decreases the time of reaction of the maintenance service. PESA designed electric vehicles according to the mandatory TSI requirements. The use of modular systems gives each client the ability to design their own interior. The length of the vehicle (number of cars) as well as its technical parameters can be modified according to the needs. PESA builds environmentally-friendly vehicles, with a low energy demand, low maintenance costs and high recycling factor used for the construction of materials. PESA cooperates with the best European suppliers of components and at the same time tries to manufacture most of the components for their products. PESA’s next generation EMU are vehicles from the Elf, PesaDART and Acatus Plus families. The Elf platform is designed for servicing of regional and agglomeration connections with a speed of up to 160 km/h. The PesaDART family is a comfortable EMU designed for servicing of long-distance lines, with a speed of up to 250 km/h. Both vehicle platforms are designed in a manner allowing the construction of multi-voltage drive systems for the servicing of lines supplied with the following voltages: 1.5kV DC, 3kV DC, 15kV AC and 25kV AC as well as other non-standard voltages according to the specific requirements of clients. The vehicles are technically adapted for servicing the European railway lines, both on the 1425mm and 1520mm track. Acatus Plus is a family of vehicles dedicated for domestic regional and agglomeration traffic with a speed of up to 160 km/h.

Elf (ElectricLowFloor) is an electric, low-floor, comfortable and safe vehicle dedicated in various versions to regional, intraregional and agglomeration carriage. The Elf family can be configured in drafts of 2 to 8 units and coupled in multiple traction. The vehicle platform can be supplied with various voltages – DC 1.5 kV/3 kV and AC 15kV/25kV. The vehicle’s door is located on the floor, at a height of 760 mm, ensure the servicing of platforms in the range
of 300-960mm and, with the use of a retractable step, also lower platforms. The advantage of the Elf’s modular system is the ability to design multi-functional space layouts – among others, for children, for carriage of bicycles, larger luggage, bar space, vending machine systems, ticket machines, etc. The innovative structure of the Elf family vehicles also allows their expansion with more units up to a maximum of eight.

PesaDART are electric multiple units of a next generation intercity class, mainly designed for servicing of longdistance lines for European and worldwide carriers. Their structure and equipment allows travelling with an operating speed of up to 250 km/h with various supply voltages: 1.5kV DC, 3kV DC, 15kV AC, 25kV AC. The quality and reliability of the vehicles were appreciated by the biggest Polish carrier – PKP Intercity, which ordered 20 vehicles in the eight-unit version, designed for servicing of long-distance relations. The vehicles include technical solutions ensuring the highest safety level for both the travellers and personnel. As one of the first, they will be subject to testing for compliance with the newest strict TSI LOC&PAS regulations. Furthermore, the vehicles are equipped with safety devices fulfilling the ERTMS system level 2 requirements. Many pro-ecological solutions are used in the PesaDART. Thanks to the decrease in mass, the energy consumption is lowered, which results in the improvement of the vehicle’s power balance.
PesaDART are the first units ensuring free movement of passengers thanks to the use of a single-level floor. The comfort of travel is ensured by comfortable seats as well as separation of thresholds and increased division of seats in the Intercity standard. The passengers, thanks to WiFi signal strengthening devices, can work and have access to entertainment during the travel. The designed internal passenger information and ad broadcast system allows passengers to get information about the most important parameters of the travel. The monitoring system allows observation and automatic recording of the view in front of the vehicle, entry door, operation of pantographs and the interior of the passenger space. The vehicles are equipped with a bar and kitchen as well as a bicycle and large luggage transport sections. The vehicle includes a room designed for the personnel and for the freight of express deliveries. PesaDART are fully adapted for servicing of passengers with reduced mobility according to the TSI PRM standard. The driver’s cabin is designed not only based on PESA’s multiple years of experience, but also on the experience of drivers of many modern EMU operators.

Electric multiple units belonging to the Acatus Plus family of low-floor vehicles are the answer to the needs of domestic carriers. The Acatus Plus family of electric multiple units was created based on the experience gained in relation to the currently designed and delivered vehicles. As a result, drafts optimised in terms of maintenance costs and travel comfort were created. The Acatus Plus family vehicles are designed for servicing of regional and agglomeration traffic and their configuration can include 2 to 6 units. The functional layout of the interior allows comfortable travelling in air-conditioned rooms with a modern design. The vehicles include a series of conveniences for people with reduced mobility, i.e. entry platforms or lift – facilitating boarding, and a spacious toilet cabin fulfilling the highest standards, i.e. the TSI PRM.
PESA, focusing on safety, has designed and built the Acatus Plus in accordance with four collision scenarios fulfilling the newest European requirements regarding the crashworthiness and the strength of railway vehicles – TSI LOC&PAS. The safety of travellers is furthermore ensured by a monitoring system and intercom. During the travel, the passengers are able to use wireless Internet access thanks to the WiFi network installed in the vehicles. The modern passenger information system allows on-going dynamic transmission of information on the next stops and possible connections as well as the broadcast of notifications and advertisements. The Acatus Plus family vehicles will be driven on the tracks in 2014 and will be delivered first to the Provinces of Małopolskie and Podkarpackie. So far, the local government authorities of the provinces ordered 12 Acatus Plus vehicles which will be introduced for use before the end of 2014.
