2.2.2 Features, quality, service
Features
The self-commutating, pulsed feed/feedback unit, which is based on IBGT technology and is
equipped with a clean-power filter, makes the minimum of demands on the line:
● The innovative clean-power filter minimizes line-side harmonics
● Power feedback (four-quadrant operation)
● Tolerant vis-à-vis fluctuations in the supply voltage
● Operation on weak lines
● Reactive power compensation is possible (inductive or capacitive)
● High drive dynamics
In addition, factors have been considered to ensure easy handling of the drive from the
planning and design phase through to operation. These factors include:
● Compact, modular, service-friendly design
● Straightforward planning and design thanks to the Sizer and Starter tools
● Ready to connect to facilitate the installation process
● Quick, menu-driven commissioning with no complex parameterization
● Clear and convenient operation via a user-friendly graphical operator panel with
measured values displayed in plain text or in a quasi-analog bar display.
● SINAMICS is an integral part of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA). The TIA concept
offers an optimized range of products for automation and drive technology. This concept
is characterized by planning / design, communication, and data management procedures
that are consistent throughout the product range. SINAMICS is fully integrated in the TIA
concept.
Separate S7/PCS7 blocks and faceplates for WinCC are available.
● Integration in SIMATIC H systems is possible via a Y link.
● Drive Control Chart (DCC)
Drive Control Chart (DCC) expands the facility for the simplest possible configuring of
technological functions for the SINAMICS drive system.
The block library encompasses a large selection of closed-loop, arithmetic and logic
function blocks, as well as more comprehensive open-loop and closed-loop control
functions. The user-friendly DCC editor enables easy graphical configuration and a clear
representation of control loop structures as well as a high degree of reusability of existing
diagrams. DCC is an add-on to the STARTER commissioning tool.
