Overview
SINAMICS SM150 in the IGBT version
SINAMICS SM150 converters in the IGBT version, capable of
energy recovery, are available as single-motor drives with IGBT
power semiconductors.
IGBT converters are available for the following voltages and
power ranges.
The rated power in the specific application will depend on the
necessary load cycle.
Note:
For other technical requirements that have to be taken into
consideration (surge loads, operation at low frequencies) please
contact your Siemens partner in sales with the required specifi-
cations.
Global use
SINAMICS SM150 converters in the IGBT version are manufac-
tured to international standards and regulations, making them
ideally suited for global use.

Benefits
7
Compact design and highly flexible configuration ensures
easy plant integration
7
Simple operator control and monitoring from the user-friendly
operator panel
7
Simple and reliable operation through integrated maintenance
functions: The converter signals early on and automatically if
maintenance is required or components need to be replaced
7
High degree of ruggedness and reliability by using HV-IGBT
technology and a fuseless design combined with intelligent
response to external disturbances
7
Can be easily integrated into automation solutions as the
PROFIBUS interface is supplied as standard along with
various analog and digital interfaces
7
High level of service-friendliness through innovative power
unit design with plug-in Powercards and easy access to all
components
7
By appropriately engineering the drive system, reactive power
can be made available to other drives, therefore helping
ensure that the plant or system is cost effective.

Design
Active Line Modules and Motor Modules have an almost identi-
cal design. HV-IGBT power semiconductors are used in both –
they are mounted on plug-in power cards that are simple to
replace.
In the basic circuit, one Active Line Module and one Motor
Module are interconnected via a DC link.
The converter consists of cabinet units for the Active Line
Module and for the Motor Module. In the following diagram, one
Powercard and the Control Unit are marked in the Motor Module.
