SIMODRIVE POSMO A User Manual (POS1) – 08/2013 Edition
Notice
24.When using SIMODRIVE POSMO A in UL–certified systems, a
UL–certified varistor with the following properties is required in the
power supply cable.
for 24 V ––> V
N
= 38 V DC / I
max
= 2000 A
e.g. SIOV–S20–K30 from EPCOS
for 48 V ––> V
N
= 65 V DC / I
max
= 6500 A
e.g. SIOV–S20–K50 from EPCOS
This circuit is not required when using the DC–PMM (refer to
Chapter 2.2.3).
25.If changes occur with respect to the normal operating condition,
e.g. increased temperatures, noise or oscillation, if in doubt, power
down the motor. The cause should then be determined and if
necessary a SIEMENS Service Center should be contacted.
26.Machines and systems equipped with SIMODRIVE POSMO A
must be in full compliance with the protective requirements of the
EMC Directive.
The plant/machine manufacturer is responsible in ensuring this.
Note
27.It is not permitted to open up the drive units! We recommend that a
SIEMENS Service Center carries–out any repair or service work.
28.The connection covers for POSMO A – 75 W and POSMO A – 300
W cannot be interchanged. This means that the connection cover
for the 75 W motor does not fit on the 300 W motor and vice versa.
29.At the end of the product lifetime, the individual parts and
components should be disposed of according to the regulations of
the particular country.
30.Possible special versions (including connection systems) and types
of construction can differ regarding the technical details! If there is
any uncertainty, we urgently recommend that you contact the
manufacturer (specifying the type designation and serial number) or
have the equipment repaired by a SIEMENS Service Center.
31.Immediately contact the transport company if damage is identified
after the equipment has been shipped. In case of damage, the drive
units should not be commissioned.
32.When connecting–up, it should be ensured that the connecting
cables are protected against torsional stressing, strain and
pressure; it should also be ensured that cables cannot kink.
33.Cables listed in the Siemens Catalog NC Z should be used when
connecting–up SIMODRIVE POSMO A.
34.Observe the rating plate data regarding type of construction and
degree of protection to ensure that they coincide with the conditions
at the point of installation!
35.The equipment must be mounted so that any thermal power loss is
adequately dissipated.
