TEMA4G Energy Meter

Our first plug-and-play solution for on-board train energy metering

Combining energy metering and communication in a single solution

TEMA4G integrates LEM’s EM4TII+ on-board energy meter, a reliable solution already in service on many trains, with an industrial modem that offers 4G and GPS connectivity

Its web interface enables users to access detailed load profiles and various system parameters. 

Compliant with all railway standards for vibration, shock, fire protection, and electromagnetic compatibility, TEMA4G is ideal for new projects and extensive retrofit programs.

It supports railway operators of all sizes in enhancing energy monitoring , management, and optimization.

Typical applications

TEMA4G energy meters are specifically designed for the following rail applications:

TEMA4G’s on-board Energy Meter: EM4T II

EM4T II is the energy meter inside the TEMA4G. It is complying to all the requirements of EN 50463-x & EN 50155 standards for metering and On-Board use, and thus satisfies the requirements of EC Decision 2011/291/EC (TSI “Locomotives and passenger rolling stock”).

EM4T II processes signals from the transformer and electronic converter systems for current and voltage to calculate energy values which are stored as load profile information.

In this load profile (set and stored in intervals between 1 to 15 minutes), the primary energy values are recorded together with data such as:

  • Date and time stamp
  • Events
  • Train identification numbers
  • Absolute energy values for consumption and regeneration of active and reactive energy
  • Frequency of the network (16.7 Hz, 50 Hz, 60 Hz or DC)
  • Additional “user” load profile like the voltage with a shorter time interval (feature coming in a second design step)
  • Position of the train at the time the load profile was stored and/or the event arose
  • Further functions, such as voltage detection can be set.
