Overview
SINAMICS DC MASTER is the drive system for basic applica-
tions and demanding DC applications. The use in a wide range
of different sectors and complementary markets demands a
high degree of scalability and the ability to expand the converter
series over a wide range.
In order to be able to guarantee this versatile use,
SINAMICS DC MASTER has a whole raft of new features:
The SINAMICS drive family
SINAMICS DC MASTER is a member of the SINAMICS drive
family. The individual SINAMICS versions are based on a com-
mon platform, especially in the area of interfaces, tools and
operator control & monitoring.
All of the SINAMICS drives support the TIA philosophy and share
common ways of engineering, communication and data
management with the SIMATIC, SIMOTION and SINUMERIK
automation systems from Siemens. When using these systems,
automation solutions can be very simply generated using
SINAMICS.
As a result of the standard and seamless integration into the
automation environment of Siemens, customers also profit from
faster engineering and commissioning of the complete machine
automation and drive technology. Further, training-related costs
are reduced and support, service & maintenance and spare
parts stocking are simplified.
PROFIBUS as standard, PROFINET optional
The units are equipped as standard with PROFIBUS – the
industry standard. PROFINET or EtherNet/IP is also available
as an option. Communication to other fieldbus systems can
be realized using external adapters.
Variance of the Control Units
In order to optimally fulfill the requirements relating to interfaces
and computational performance for technology functions, a
Standard or Advanced CUD or a combination can be selected.
It is also possible to use two CUDs to increase the performance
for technological open-loop and closed-loop control tasks. This
allows optimum adaptation to the wide range of requirements
relating to drive technology and complementary markets – both
technically and economically.
Field power supply in line with requirements
With the introduction of SINAMICS DC MASTER, you have the
option of selecting the optimum field power supply for your
particular requirements.
SINAMICS DC MASTER is always the optimum choice:
•
For units without field (from a rated DC current of 60 A and
higher)
•
For units with a 1Q field (with integrated free-wheeling circuit)
•
For units with a 2Q field to actively reduce the current for high-
speed field current changes and integrated field overvoltage
protection (from a rated DC current of 60 A and higher)
For units from 1500 A and higher it is also possible to select a
version with 85 A rated field current in a 1Q or 2Q version instead
of the 40 A field power supply. It goes without saying that an
external field power supply unit can also be connected – if the
application demands it.
