- Pumps and fans: Optimized with ECO and hibernation modes to match motor speed to demand, delivering up to 20–50% energy savings under variable loads
- Conveyor systems: Smooth acceleration and deceleration reduce mechanical stress and product damage in material handling, food processing, and automotive lines
- Compressors: Adaptive motor control matches air or gas demand, lowering energy use and maintenance costs
- Mixers and agitators: Precise torque and speed control ensure consistent output quality in chemical and food processing applications.
SINAMICS V20
The compact SINAMICS V20 is the frequency converter for simple motion sequences. It is characterized by its short commissioning times, easy handling, and energy-saving functions. The converter with its nine sizes covers the power range from 0.12 kW to 30 kW.
- High energy efficiency: ECO modes (U/f, U²/f) and hibernation reduce power consumption by up to 10–20%
- Compact design: Space-saving form factor with side-by-side and push-through mounting options for improved cooling
- Easy commissioning: Setup via built-in BOP, USS/Modbus RTU terminals, or Smart Access Module (web server) for laptop/mobile access and parameter backup
- Robust construction: Wide voltage range, enhanced cooling, coated PCBs, and operation up to 60 °C for harsh environments
- Reliable operation: Keep Running Mode maintains output during unstable power conditions to avoid process interruptions
- Versatile motor control: Supports synchronous and asynchronous motors, integrated braking choppers (7.5–30 kW), and DC bus sharing
- Simple system integration: Pre-installed application macros for fast wiring and setup with USS/Modbus communication
- Power range: 0.12 kW to 30 kW (0.16 hp to 40 hp)
- Input voltage: 1-phase 230 V or 3-phase 380–480 V
- Control method: V/f (Volts/Frequency) control with built-in application macros for easy setup
- Protection class: IP20 (frame sizes A–D), suitable for cabinet mounting
- Communication: USS / Modbus RTU
- Operating temperature: –10 °C to +40 °C (derating up to +60 °C)
