Featuring interchangeable architecture, SINAMICS[R] G and S series scalable ac drives let users select, start up, and configure appropriate drive for any application, at any power range from 120 W to 1+ MW using same software for every drive. Models in G series offer power from 1/6-1,100 hp for stand-alone applications. For applications requiring coordinated drives with servo functions, models in S series offer max power from 125-1,500 hp.

New comprehensive drives line creates consolidated approach to drive management

ATLANTA (March 7, 2005) - Siemens Energy & Automation, Inc., adds another checkmark to its innovation scorecard with the unveiling of SINAMICS[R], the first family of AC drives that operates on one, standard platform.

This revolutionary technology makes it easy for Siemens customers to select, start up and configure the right drive for any application at any power range (120W to more than 1MW), using the same software for every drive in the family. As a result, manufacturers can streamline simple and complex multi-drive manufacturing operations, giving them new ways to push cost out of their processes and stay more competitive.With SINAMICS, Siemens has made a tremendous investment in the next generation of drives technology," said Aubert Martin, president of Siemens Energy & Automation. "We've spent a significant amount of time and resources over the past several years researching and developing SINAMICS, which builds upon our time-tested expertise from Siemens worldwide and defines our commitment to bringing the latest innovations to U.S. businesses.

"SINAMICS incorporates best-in-class engineering, tools and products to give manufacturers more ease of use, options and flexibility to keep them competitive at home and abroad."

SINAMICS modular and scalable industrial AC drives feature an interchangeable architecture, which simplifies application startups and the integration of new drives into new and existing systems.

Common engineering tools available exclusively from Siemens, SIZER and STARTER, are designed to easily select and configure any drive solution - from the most basic operation to complex motion and servo control functions. The user-friendly programs are applicable to every drive in the SINAMICS line.

"The engineering is unified and seamless throughout, making SINAMICS the choice for any power range, functionality and application," said Martin.

The new SINAMICS drive line is broad enough for any stand-alone or multiple-drive application in any industry. Martin added that the SINAMICS line allows Siemens customers to apply SINAMICS drives in many more applications not served with the existing Siemens drive products. Existing drive lines, generally found in more complex industrial applications, will continue to be part of Siemens' product mix.

CE- and UL-certified (cUL for Canada), the SINAMICS family consists of drive G and S models, each with a wide range of performance and power-handling characteristics. The SINAMICS G drives are designed for general to high-performance, stand-alone drives applications. The SINAMICS S drives take a unique approach to coordinated drives with servo functions.

SINAMICS "G" drives for general to high-performance, stand-alone drives.

SINAMICS G110 - Easy to use and compact for commercial and industrial constant or variable torque applications including water pumps, material handling conveyors and fans found in the HVAC industry

The SINAMICS G110 is a compact, low-power AC drive frequency inverter for the low-cost, high-volume marketplace. Delivering smooth and continuous speed control, the SINAMICS G110 operates variable-speed, three-phase motors on single-phase line power supplies. The SINAMICS G110 frequency inverter is rated for 200-240V input with a power range of 1/6HP to 4HP.

* SINAMICS G130 - Modular and easily integrated for standard, general performance VT applications including pumps, fans and compressors

The SINAMICS G130 is a modular, high-power drive ideal for OEMs that construct their own drive enclosures. Rated from 500 to 800 HP, the G130 is comprised of a power chassis that operates on three-phase, 400-480VAC power. A controller kit supports a variety of optional components.
