1.4 Electromagnetic fields in electrical power engineering installations
1.4 Electromagnetic fields in electrical power engineering installations
WARNING
Electromagnetic fields "electro smog" when operating electrical power engineering
installations
Electromagnetic fields are generated during operation of electrical power engineering
installations.
Electromagnetic fields can interfere with electronic devices, which could cause them to
malfunction. For example, the operation of heart pacemakers can be impaired, potentially
leading to damage to a person's health or even death. It is therefore forbidden for persons
with heart pacemakers to enter these areas.
The plant operator is responsible for taking appropriate measures (labels and hazard
warnings) to adequately protect operating personnel and others against any possible risk.
● Observe the relevant nationally applicable health and safety regulations. In Germany,
"electromagnetic fields" are subject to regulations BGV B11 and BGR B11 stipulated by
the German statutory industrial accident insurance institution.
● Display adequate hazard warning notices on the installation.
● Place barriers around hazardous areas.

● Take measures, e.g. using shields, to reduce electromagnetic fields at their source.
● Make sure that personnel are wearing the appropriate protective gear.

● If the modules have to be touched, the body of the person concerned must be
electrostatically discharged immediately beforehand and be grounded.
● Electronic modules should not be brought into contact with electrically insulating materials
such as plastic foil, plastic parts, insulating table supports or clothing made of synthetic
fibers.
● Always place electrostatic endangered assemblies on conductive bases.
● Always store and transport electronic modules or components in conductive packaging
(e.g. metallized plastic or metal containers).
CAUTION

Quick Commisioning (P0010=1) 3
Mechanical and electrical installation of the inverter must be completed before running
“Quick Commissioning”.
It is important that parameter P0010 is used for commissioning and P0003 is used to select
the access level.
There are three user levels, standard, extended and expert. The lower the access level
fewer parameters can be seen while performing Quick commissioning. The values for these
parameters are either the default settings or are calculated during quick commissioning.
Quick commissioning includes motor and ramp setting parameters.
Quick Commissioning concludes with P3900, which, when set to 1, will perform the
necessary motor calculations and clear all other parameters (not included in P0010=1) to the
default settings. After completing Quick Commissioning with P3900 = 1, the inverter is then
ready to run; this will only happen in the Quick Commissioning mode.

Troubleshooting with the BOP-2 4
Warnings and faults are displayed on the BOP-2 with Axxx and Fxxx respectively. If the
motor fails to start when the ON command has been given:
● Check that P0010 = 0.
● Check that a valid ON signal is present.
● Check that P0700 = 2 (for digital input control) or
P0700 = 1 (for BOP-2 control).
● Check that the setpoint is present (0 to 10V on Terminal 3) or the setpoint has been
entered into the correct parameter, depending upon the setpoint source (P1000). See the
Parameter List for further details.
If the motor fails to run after changing the parameters, set P0010 = 30 then P0970 = 1 and
press P to reset the inverter to the factory default parameter values.
Now push the ON-button on the door of the cabinet or connect the terminal –X10:5 and
–X10:9 . The drive should now run to the defined setpoint by analogue input.

FAQ 5
5.1 1 QUESTION
When Profibus communication fails, how can fault F0070 be detected by the drive inverter
and further processed?
ANSWER
In many applications, when Profibus communication fails with fault F0070 a bit is to be made
available. This bit signals that Profibus has failed. This bit can then also be freely
interconnected. This means that the user can specifically evaluate this fault and himself
decide which response is to be made.
The bit can be generated using free blocks (FFB). This is the reason that the recommended
method can only be implemented at the SINAMICS V50.
Parameterization:
P2800 = 1 // activate FFB
P2801.0 = 1 // activate AND 1 (level 1)
P2802.12 = 2 // activate comparator 1 (level 2)

P2802.13 = 2 // activate comparator 2 (level 2)
P2810.0 = r2886.0 // 1st input of AND 1 = output of comparator 1
P2810.1 = r2888.0 // 2nd input of AND 1 = output of comparator 2

P2885.0 = r0947.0 // 1st input of comparator 1 = last fault code
P2885.1 = P2889 // 2nd input of comparator 1 = fixed setpoint 1

P2887.0 = P2889 // 1st input of comparator 2 = fixed setpoint 1
P2887.1 = r0947.0 // 2nd input of comparator 2 = last fault code
P2889 = 0.43 // fixed setpoint 1 = 0.43% (the value is only valid for F0070)
r2811 = 1 for fault F0070

Bit r2811 can still be used elsewhere.

5.2 2 QUESTION
5.2 2 QUESTION
How can the temperature measured in SINAMICS V50 cabinet using a temperature sensor
(KTY84) - or determined from the motor temperature model - be compared with a fixed
temperature value?
ANSWER
This question can arise if, when the measured or determined motor temperature exceeds a
temperature limit and a specific response is to be output.
If, for example, the motor temperature exceeds the 80°C limit, a digital output should be set
that then activates a water cooling system.
To do this, the fixed temperature value (e.g. 80°C) must be converted into a %. The motor
temperature must have reached the appropriate value or adjusted using a potentiometer
(terminals 14 and 15).
If the PID controller is not used and not activated, then the temperature value can be easily
converted into a % value using the PID controller (refer to Fig5.1).
To do this, set the following:
P2264 = r0035.0 // motor temperature r0035.0 as PID actual value
r2266 = read the value // filtered PID actual value = fixed temperature value as a %
Fdbck. filt Tconst

= Value in °C P2264
CO: PID filt. feedback
r0035.0 Index 0
= Value in %
r2266
Figure 5-3 converting the fixed temperature value into a %
For instance, a value of 0.12% is obtained for 20°C and 0.49% for 80°C. The value of
parameter r2266 must then be entered into parameter P2889. In the SINAMICS V50 control
units a comparator can be used to make a comparison between the motor temperature and
a fixed temperature value:
2800 = 1 // activates the free blocks
2802.12 = 1 // activates comparator 1 (CMP 1)
2885.0 = r0035.0 // motor temperature r0035.0 as the 1st input of comparator 1
2885.1 = P2889 // fixed value P2889 as the 2nd input of comparator 1

FAQ
5.3 3 QUESTION
5.3 3 QUESTION
How can I improve the starting performance of high power SINAMICS V50 drives?
ANSWER
The starting performance of the high power drives is affected by the stator resistance value.
On larger motors (say above 500kW) the stator resistance is very low, and small changes in
motor design can greatly affect the resistance and therefore the starting current. The type
and length of cable between the motor and inverter can also change the overall resistance
significantly.
If the actual resistance is higher than the calculated value (which is calculated during quick
commissioning) the magnetizing current will be lower than the optimum value, therefore the
motor will be running inefficiently, particularly at low speeds. As a result, a much higher load
current will flow and the maximum possible torque will be reduced.
At zero frequency the current is determined by the boost voltage and the stator resistance.
The current will not change with the load. If the calculated value of the stator resistance is
too low, the current and the starting torque will be too low.
To avoid this high current, it is recommended that the stator resistance is measured during
commissioning. This is carried out by setting P1910 = 1 either during quick commissioning or
afterwards. It is also worthwhile setting P1910 = 3 to measure the flux curve. These
measurements must be carried out with a cold motor.
The reduction in current will be noticeable in all modes of operation (SLVC, V to f, FCC)
With SLVC the current is controlled. There is only a small influence of the resistance on the
magnetizing current. The SLVC automatically adapts the resistance value during operation.
Nevertheless the performance of SLVC is better when the stator resistance is tuned
correctly, especially immediately after power on.

5.4 4 QUESTION
5.4 4 QUESTION
How can I address or control the digital inputs or outputs using PROFIBUS?
ANSWER
The digital inputs (DIN) can be read-out via the DP by setting parameter P2051 to r722
(CO/BO values, digital inputs).
The state of digital outputs (DOUT) can be interrogated in the same way. In this case, the
value of parameter P2051 should be set to r747 (CO/BO values, digital outputs).
In order to control the digital outputs DOUT of SINAMICS V50 via DP bus, the bits of control
word 1 and control word 2 that are not used can be utilized for this purpose. These are the
following bits: 2090.12, 2091.6, 2091.7, 2091.10, 2091.14.
The digital outputs must then be interconnected with the bits, e.g.:
P0731 = 2090.12
P0732 = 2091.6
P0733 = 2091.7
5.5 5 QUESTION
Can SINAMICS V50 operate with unearthed supplies?
ANSWER
Yes, it can operate with removing the connection bracket of the interface-suppression
capacitor for unearthed.
Operation with ungrounded (IT) supplies

The SINAMICS V50 cabinet will operate from ungrounded supplies and will continue to
operate if an input phase is shorted to ground. If an output phase is shorted to ground, the
SINAMICS V50 will trip and indicate F0001.
On ungrounded supplies, it will be necessary to remove the 'Y' capacitor from the inside of
the unit and fit an output reactor .The purpose of the reactor is to limit high frequency
circulating currents that can flow during earth faults. These would cause high currents in the
output devices, leading to excessive dissipation and possible damage.
SINAMICS V50 I
FAQ
5.5 5 QUESTION
Additional notes
3. 'Ground' and 'Earth' are used to mean the same thing in this context.
4. Operation on unearthed supplies is only possible with unfiltered units. Filtered units (or
units which do not have their 'Y' capacitors disconnected) will be damaged after running
for a short time.
5. An output reactor is recommended to limit the fault current during an earth fault. All
qualification tests have been carried out using an output reactor.
6. It is often the case that ungrounded supplies have high levels of transients and
interference. Supplies should be checked for damaging transients before fitting
SINAMICS V50. If in doubt, an input reactor should be fitted.
Supply arrangements:
An unearthed or ungrounded supply is one where the ground is not

electrically connected to the inverter input (see diagrams below). This
arrangement is sometimes used in some industrial installations because,
in the event of an earth fault occurring, the equipment may continue to
run.
Ungrounded does not mean there is no ground connection at all. All

Siemens drives must always be grounded. This is important for safety
reasons.
Normal Supply; Ground connected to neutral at supply source.
Typical IT or ungrounded supply:

There is no direct connection between the supply and the safety ground.
