Derating data
Compensation of current derating as a function of installation al-
titude/ambient temperature
If the SINAMICS G150 drive converter cabinet units are oper-
ated at an installation altitude > 2000 m above sea level,
factors relating to a reduction of the maximum permissible out-
put current (derating) must be taken into account. These are
specified in the tables below. It must be ensured that the air flow
corresponds to the rate specified in the technical specifications
tables. The specified values already include a permitted correc-
tion between installation altitude and ambient temperature (in-
coming air temperature at the inlet to the drive converter cabinet
unit).
Current derating depending on ambient temperature (inlet-air temperature) and installation altitude
for cabinet units with degree of protection IP20, IP21, IP23 and IP43
Current derating depending on ambient temperature (inlet-air temperature) and installation altitude
for cabinet units with degree of protection IP54
Voltage derating as a function of installation altitude
In addition to current derating, voltage derating must be consid-
ered in accordance with the following table with installation
altitudes > 2000 m above sea level.
