Overview

SIRIUS motor starter applications is a system solution for the

flexible and uniform decentralization of drive technology in the

field. It is centered on the extensive decentralization and modu-

larization of fusing, switching and control elements and safety

technology, combined with comprehensive diagnostics down to

the component level.

Modern field and power bus technologies open up new possibil-

ities for machinery and plant engineering. Systems of distributed

design are flexible and can be adapted to the various require-

ments of industrial automation.

An extensive range of geared and near-motor sensors plus a

large assortment of motor starters and frequency converters en-

sure optimum operation of the motors.

Motor starters and frequency converters are available in various

versions. Compact drive trains with a high degree of protection

(IP65) or modular island solutions with low or medium degree of

protection (IP20 or IP65) can be implemented depending on the

type of plant.

Communication with the higher control level is provided by stan-

dardized fieldbus systems (PROFIBUS/PROFINET, AS-Inter-

face), which are used to exchange not only control information

but also parameter and diagnostics data.

Full integration in TIA is realized with PROFIBUS/PROFINET.

Safety technology is also an integral component. On the device

level as well as on a higher level it with PROFIsafe, our concepts

and matching products ensure the safe operation of your plant.

The SIVACON power bar distribution system and our ECOFAST

power bus system see to the supply and distribution of energy

from the low-voltage transformer to the field device.
