CE Marking on Power Drive Systems
The concept of a Power Drive System [PDS] is used to describe an electric motor drive
system within an overall installation. The terminology is used throughout IEC and EN
standards relating to electrical variable speed drives to describe a combination of
components, including a power converter and motor. IEC series 61800 covers "Adjustable
Speed Electrical Power Drive Systems".
Siemens Industry, Inc. IDT LDA Perfect Harmony™ designs always include the Basic Drive
Module [BDM] consisting of a Perfect Harmony™ transformer, converter/inverter [power cell]
section, and control section. Depending on the Siemens Industry, Inc. IDT LDA scope of
supply, the Perfect Harmony™ Complete Drive Module [CDM] may include optional
components such as a motor excitation unit, output line filter, output line reactor, or earthing
switches. The Siemens Industry, Inc. IDT LDA scope of supply may include a motor.
The components of the machinery, including gear boxes and the driven equipment is the end
user’s responsibility and outside the scope of Siemens Industry, Inc. IDT LDA’s responsibility
from a Machinery Directive standpoint.
