Siemens SINAMICS – frequency converters that deliver efficiency and reliability

In a rapidly evolving industrial environment where energy efficiency, system reliability, and automation integration are top priorities, Siemens SINAMICS drive solutions have become a cornerstone of process optimization. Their application brings not only measurable economic benefits but also strategic value – especially in the context of energy and digital transformation.

High energy efficiency

SINAMICS drives are designed for maximum efficiency. In partial load modes, they automatically reduce power consumption (via energy-saving mode and flux optimization functions) while enabling precise torque control.

Result: Energy savings of up to 50% in variable-load systems, along with significantly extended service life of mechanical components.

Advanced safety functions (SIL2 / SIL3)

Integrated functions such as STO, SS1, SLS, and SBC enable the design of advanced machine safety systems without the need for external relays. This reduces system complexity and certification costs.

Result: Compliance with the Machinery Directive and easier integration with modern safety-related control systems (SRP/CS).

Integration with automation systems

SINAMICS integrates natively with TIA Portal and Siemens control systems (S7-1200/1500), but also supports Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, CANopen, Profinet, and PROFIsafe, making it a universal solution in multi-system environments.

Result: Fast integration, fewer intermediate components, and remote management and diagnostics.

Support for premium-class motors (IE3, IE4, IE5)

The ability to control high-efficiency motors, including permanent magnet (PM) motors, enables maximum energy efficiency of the entire drive system – in accordance with EN 50598-2 (IE class for the system).

Impact on the plant’s energy efficiency

The use of SINAMICS in HVAC systems, conveyor lines, pumping stations, and multi-section fan power supplies enables dynamic control tailored to current demand. As a result:

losses related to throttling or constant-load operation are reduced,
the reactive power profile is improved,
energy consumption costs are reduced by up to 30–60% compared to non-regulated systems.

In the context of ESG strategies, SINAMICS supports the reduction of carbon footprint and efficient use of energy resources – both through data for reporting and actual reduction in kWh consumption.

An investment that pays for itself

The implementation of Siemens SINAMICS frequency converters is a solution that delivers immediate operational benefits through dynamic adjustment of drive parameters. This results in significant energy savings throughout the entire lifecycle of the installation. Additionally, SINAMICS technology supports decarbonization strategies and meets current certification requirements. It is a solution fully aligned with the Industry 4.0 concept, thanks to its ability to integrate with higher-level systems and enable advanced monitoring and performance analysis.
