Benefits
Advantages through energy efficiency
Overview of the energy management process
We offer you a unique portfolio for industrial energy manage-
ment, using an energy management system that helps to opti-
mally define your energy needs. We split up our industrial
energy management into three phases – identify, evaluate, and
realize – and we support you with the appropriate hardware and
software solutions in every process phase.
The innovative products of the SIRIUS industrial controls port-
folio can also make a substantial contribution to a plant's energy
efficiency
(see www.siemens.com/sirius/energysaving)
.
SIMATIC ET 200pro motor starters contribute to energy
efficiency as follows:
•
Energy management:
Provision of energy data (current) by bus to higher-level
systems using PROFIenergy
•
Elimination of energy consumption in dead times through
disconnection using PROFIenergy
•
Current management:
With the electronic soft starter, avoidance of current peaks,
thus reducing the load on the grid and the mechanical system
•
Depending on technology, lower intrinsic power loss than
speed-controlled drive systems
•
Solid-state modules equipped with soft start technology with
bypass contactor, resulting in lower power losses than with
conventional soft starters after start up
Product advantages
ET 200pro motor starters provide the following advantages:
•
High flexibility thanks to a modular and compact design
•
Little variance among all motor starter versions
(two units up to 5.5 kW)
•
Extensive parameterization using STEP 7 HW Config
•
Increase of plant availability through fast replacement of units
(easy mounting and plug-in technology)
•
Extensive diagnostics and information for preventive
maintenance
•
Parameterizable inputs for on-site control functions
(High Feature)
•
Cabinet-free design thanks to high degree of protection IP65

Application
The SIMATIC ET 200pro motor starters are ideal for the use of
several spatially concentrated distributed drive solutions in
which several motors, or digital or analog sensors and actuators
are addressed from a distributed station. They are perfectly
suited for protecting and switching any AC loads.
Use of ET 200pro motor starters in conjunction with
IE3/IE4 motors
Note:
For the use of ET 200pro motor starters in conjunction with highly
energy-efficient IE3/IE4 motors, please observe the information
on dimensioning and configuring;
see "Application Manual for
SIRIUS Controls with IE3/IE4 Motors",
.
