Converter efficiency at partial load
Partial load efficiency of SINAMICS G130 and G150 converters
The following diagrams show the efficiency at partial load for SINAMICS G130 and G150 converters for constant-
torque drives. Basis of the calculations is a typical value for the efficiency of the converter at full load of 98 %. The
representation of the efficiency is done in two different ways. The first representation shows the efficiency in
dependency on the converter output frequency for different values of the output current. The second representation
shows the efficiency in dependency on the converter output current for different values of the output frequency.
