Speed And Load Failure Via Digital Input - Siemens SINAMICS G120 CU240B-2 Operating Instructions Manual

Speed and load failure via digital input

With this function you can directly monitor not only the motor speed but also the speed of the
driven load. Examples include:
● Gearbox monitoring, e.g. in traction drives or hoisting gear
● Drive belt monitoring, e.g. in fans or conveyor belts
● Monitoring for blocked driven load
Speed or velocity monitoring functions
There are two ways of directly monitoring speed in your application:
1. Load failure monitoring: The inverter evaluates whether the sensor signal is present.
2. Speed deviation monitoring: The inverter calculates a speed from the signal of the
Speed monitoring requires a binary sensor (e.g. a BERO), the output signal from which is
evaluated as a pulse sequence by a digital input on the inverter.

If you parameterize the function of a digital input for load failure monitoring (P070x = 50), you
automatically interconnect this input to signal evaluation via BICO technology.
