The
NEEL company was established in 1993 by a group of former employees of the
Railways Scientific and Technological Centre in Warsaw.
The main scope of the company's operations is development and production
of microprocessor automated systems of electric current supply for the railways
traction of 3kV DC (PKP) and the 600V DC (for trams). These devices
constitute part of the state-of-the-art traction stations equipment constructed
on the basis of the so-called 'distributed intelligence' utilizing the CAN-BUS
type of the computer buses. Such devices have been installed in 11 modern
PKP traction sub-stations and in a couple of tram sub-stations.
Over 140 PKP section cabins and over 100 PKP traction sub-stations have
been equipped with a system developed by NEEL: it is type EUU electronic
dependencies system, that has replaced the old and faulty exchange devices
used by PKP so far.
In years 1997-2004 NEEL developed and installed the heating and air-conditioning
testing system for MSOW-type passenger carriages stationed at three PKP
rail terminals: Przemyśl-Bakończyce, Szczecin-Zaleskie Łegi, Częstochowa,
Warszawa-Grochów. The system enables: testing of the heating and air-conditioning
systems, current measurements, defect localization, as well as preliminary
warm-up of carriages awaiting for the connection to a locomotive.
The production offer contains also the so-called "transformer boxes"
(type ZTS-1, wattage: 5 or 7.6kVA) to supply current to
the junction turnout electrical heating of points and the absolute
novelty on a world scale - animal deterring device "UOZ-1"
designed for high-speed railway tracks. These devices were installed on
the railway tracks of the E20 railway line between Minsk Mazowiecki and
Siedlce during its modernization in years 2003-2004.
