Changing over units

Description
By changing over the units, parameters and process quantities for input and output can be
changed over to an appropriate system of units (US units or as per unit quantities (%)).
The following supplementary conditions apply when changing over units:
● Parameters of the rating plate of the drive converter or the motor rating plate can be
● After changing over the units parameter, all parameters that are assigned to one of the
● A parameter is available to select technological units (p0595) to represent technological
● If the units are converted to per unit quantities and the reference quantity changed, the
Restrictions
● When a unit changeover occurs, rounding to the decimal places is carried out. This can
● If a referenced form is selected and the reference parameters (e.g. p2000) are changed
● If the reference variables (p2000 to p2007) are changed offline in STARTER, there is a
Groups of units
Every parameter that can be changed over is assigned to a units group, that, depending on
the group, can be changed over within certain limits.
This assignment and the unit groups for each parameter are listed in the parameter list in the
SINAMICS S110 List Manual.
The units groups can be individually switched via the following parameters: p0100, p0505
and p0595

quantities in the technology controller.
percentage value entered in a parameter is not changed.
Example:
– A fixed speed of 80% corresponds, for a reference speed of 1500 RPM, to a value of
1200 RPM.
– If the reference speed is changed to 3000 RPM, then the value of 80% is kept and
now means 2400 RPM.
mean that the original value might change by up to one decimal place.
retrospectively, the referenced values of some of the control parameters are also
adjusted to ensure that the control behavior is unaffected.
risk that the parameter value ranges will be violated. In this case, appropriate fault
messages will be displayed when the parameters are loaded to the drive units.
