The series EL 71 of the operation for mining equipment Aue (BBA) indicates a Akkumulatorlokomotive , which was built from 1971 to 1989. It was built for the mining operations of SDAG Wismut .

development

The EL 71 is an EL 61 with the B 660 that has been extended by two more battery packs . The background for the development was to achieve an increase in performance under the same operating conditions. When building the EL 71, locomotives from the EL 61 series as well as the B 660 series were used. That is why there are different dimensions and data without different type designations.

Constructive features

mechanics

The four drive units had an outer frame, which was the supporting structure. The driver's cab was hung as a litter between the battery tenders. It was carried out with a welded frame. The locomotive had a manual spindle brake as a parking brake. The braking force was transmitted to the drive units via a cable.

Electrics

Each of the eight axles was driven by a drive motor . The four batteries as well as the two DC motors in series in a tender are connected in series. When starting up, the two motor groups are first connected in series and then in parallel via resistors. The travel and braking levels can be selected with the cam switch.
