Decentralised Drives

Overview

The SINAMICS G110D distributed converter series is the solution for basic drive tasks, especially in the field of conveyor systems. The converter allows the speed of three-phase asynchronous (induction) motors to be continually controlled and fulfills the requirements of conveyor-related applications with open-loop frequency control. It can be optimally integrated into the system thanks to its compact and low-profile design in an IP65 degree of protection. It can be optimally integrated into the Siemens TIA world of automation via AS-Interface.

With its wide power range from 0.75 kW to 7.5 kW, it is suitable for a wide range of distributed drive solutions.

Example: SINAMICS G110D, frame size FSA

Reasons for using distributed drive systems

  • Modular drive solutions – therefore standardized mechatronic elements that can be individually tested
  • A control cabinet is not required, resulting in a smaller space requirement and lower cooling requirements
  • Long cables between the converter and motor can be avoided (which means lower power losses, reduced noise emission and lower costs for shielded cables and additional filters)
  • Distributed configurations offer considerable benefits for conveyor systems with their extensive coverage (e.g. in the automotive and logistics sectors)

Siemens family of distributed drives

Siemens offers an innovative portfolio of frequency converters to optimally implement distributed drive solutions. The strengths of the individual members of the drive family permit simple adaptation to the widest range of application demands:

  • Identical connection systems
  • Identical mounting dimensions for SINAMICS G110D and SINAMICS G120D
  • Standard commissioning and configuration tool

Products from the family of distributed drives:

  • SINAMICS G110D frequency converters
  • SINAMICS G110M frequency converters
  • SIMATIC ET 200pro FC-2 frequency converters
  • SINAMICS G120D frequency converters
  • SIRIUS M200D motor starters

Device design

SINAMICS G110D is a compact converter in IP65 degree of protection where the Control Unit (CU) and Power Module (PM) function units are combined in one device.

The closed-loop control electronics controls and monitors the power electronics and the connected motor in several different control types that can be selected. The digital inputs and analog inputs on the device mean that sensors can be simply and directly connected at the drive. The input signals can either be directly linked within the converter and initiate local responses independently or they can be transferred to the central control via AS-Interface for further processing within the context of the overall plant.

The power electronics supplies the motor in the power range from 0.75 kW to 7.5 kW. It is controlled (open-loop) from the microprocessor-based control. State-of-the-art IGBT technology with pulse-width-modulation is used for highly reliable and flexible motor operation. Comprehensive protection functions provide a high degree of protection for the converter and motor. The unusually low profile mechanical design is optimized so that the device can be directly used in the plant or system. The compact converter has the same drilling dimensions for all power ratings (standard footprint). Further, the dimensions are identical to those of the SINAMICS G120D frequency converter. This significantly simplifies the mechanical design, installation and retrofit of a system.

Design

The SINAMICS G110D distributed converters are compact frequency converters for standard drives. Each SINAMICS G110D includes both the Control Unit as well as the Power Module in one unit.

SINAMICS G110D with integrated maintenance switch and manual local control with keyswitch

SINAMICS G110D features an integrated brake chopper and is suitable for distributed drives without energy recovery capability. If generator energy is produced then this is dissipated in the externally connected braking resistors. The communication is realized via the local inputs (digital and analog) or via the AS-Interface bus integrated as standard.

SINAMICS G110D with integrated maintenance switch

The converter is available in two versions: With and without maintenance switch. Thanks to the optional maintenance switch (this cannot be retrofitted), when service is required, the converter can be simply disconnected from the line supply without having to have any additional components or additional wiring costs when configuring.

Accessories

Braking resistors

Excess energy in the DC link is dissipated in the braking resistors. The braking resistors are designed for use with the SINAMICS G110D. This has an integrated brake chopper (electronic switch).

IOP-2 Handheld Intelligent Operator Panel

User-friendly and powerful operator panel for commissioning and diagnostics as well as local operator control and monitoring of SINAMICS G110D.

Manual local control with keyswitch

Master control can be toggled between automatic mode (PLC) and manual local mode using the manual local control. This can also be used to switch off the converter. Additional functions include switching over between continuous and jog mode, starting the motor including direction of rotation and deactivating the Quick Stop in the manual mode.

Memory card

The parameter settings for a converter can be stored on the SINAMICS SD memory card. When service is required, e.g. after the converter has been replaced and the data have been downloaded from the memory card, the drive system is immediately ready for use again. The associated memory card holder is not included in the scope of supply of the converter and must be separately ordered.

Card holder for memory card

To use the SINAMICS SD memory card, a card holder is required that is inserted under the blanking cover or under the manual/automatic control operator panel on the converter.

RS232 interface cable for communication with a PC

For controlling and commissioning a converter directly from a PC if the appropriate software (STARTER commissioning tool V4.1.3 and higher) has been installed.
