Siemens SINAMICS G220 - Vdc_Min Controller (Vdc_Min Control)

14.10.4.3 Vdc_min controller (Vdc_min control)
Overview
The Vdc_min controller (kinetic bu󹪜ering) increases the drive availability because the kinetic
energy of the load accommodates brief power dips or failures.
Requirement
Requirements:
• The driven load has a su󹪟ciently high inertia.
• The application allows braking of the motor during a power failure.
Description of function
When the power dips or fails, the DC link voltage in the converter decreases. The Vdc_min
controller intervenes starting from an adjustable threshold. With kinetic bu󹪜ering active, the
converter covers its power loss and the losses in the motor with the kinetic energy of the load.
The speed of the load decreases but the DC link voltage remains constant with the Vdc_min
controller active. After the line supply returns, the converter resumes normal operation.
The Vdc_min controller can typically accommodate power failures of up to 1 second.
