2.3 Benefits
The outstanding system properties offer companies operating plants and systems the following
advantages:
● Process optimization with minimal effort:
– A standard PROFIBUS or PROFINET interface and various analog and digital interfaces
– Vector control ensures that they fulfill the most exacting requirements regarding the
● High level of reliability and availability:
– Individual modules and power components can be replaced quickly and easily, which
● Energy savings during operation:
– The motor-side inverters are coupled via the common DC link and allow energy to be
– The supply infeed is generally only dimensioned for the maximum motor power required /
● Cost minimization during operation, maintenance, and service:
– Simple commissioning thanks to the menu-driven "STARTER" commissioning tool.
– Optional, menu-assisted AOP30 Advanced Operator Panel with plain text display and
– All the unit modules are easily accessible, offering a maximum degree of service
● Space-saving design
● Environmentally-friendly operation:
– The converters are exceptionally quiet and compact thanks to state-of-the-art IGBT
