At present, it is the Spring Festival transportation period, and the rain and snow weather in various places has brought hidden dangers to the safe and stable operation of the EMU. The EMU ice melting and snow removal team made a brilliant debut.
The EMU ice melting and snow removal team needs to carry out ice and snow removal work in winter to ensure the safety and normal operation of EMU trains when driving in snowy weather.
This work usually includes the following steps:
Preparation: The mechanic will prepare the train before it enters the snow and ice area. This may include checking the working condition of de-icing equipment and tools, preparing the required de-icing agent, snow removal tools, etc.
Monitor the weather: On-board mechanics need to pay close attention to the weather forecast, especially in rainy and snowy weather, and cooperate with the TEDS center to warn the EMU. This helps to prepare in advance and take action if necessary.
De-icingOnce the EMU returns to Kuhou, once it is found that ice and snow have accumulated in the bogie, floor, skirt and other parts of the EMU, the ice melting and snow removal team will use de-icing agent or snow removal tools to clean up. De-icers are usually chemical solutions that can help melt snow and ice quickly.
Snow removalIn addition to clearing the ice, the mechanic may also need to use snow removal tools to clear the snow to ensure the smooth movement of the train. This may include tools such as snow brushes, snow shovels, etc.
Security checksAfter the de-icing and snow removal work is completed, the mechanic will conduct a safety inspection to ensure that there is no ice and snow residue in all parts of the train, and check the working status of the de-icing equipment to ensure the safe operation of the train.
When performing de-icing and snow removal work, the EMU ice and snow removal team needs to maintain a high degree of vigilance and professional skills to ensure the quality and safety of the work, as well as to ensure the smooth operation of the train. At the same time, they also need to take care to protect themselves from being injured in adverse weather conditions.
