Safety instructions
1.1
General safety instructions

DANGER
Danger to life when live parts are touched
Death or serious injury can result when live parts are touched.
Only work on electrical devices when you are qualified for this job.
Always observe the country-specific safety rules.
Generally, six steps apply when establishing safety:
1. Prepare for shutdown and notify all those who will be affected by the procedure.
2. Disconnect the machine from the supply.
Switch off the machine.
Wait until the discharge time specified on the warning labels has elapsed.
Check that it really is in a no-voltage condition, from phase conductor to phase
conductor and phase conductor to protective conductor.
Check whether the existing auxiliary supply circuits are de-energized.
Ensure that the motors cannot move.
3. Identify all other hazardous energy sources, e.g. compressed air, hydraulic systems,
water.
4. Isolate or neutralize all hazardous energy sources, e.g. by closing switches, grounding
or short-circuiting or closing valves.
5. Secure the energy sources against switching on again.
6. Make sure that the machine is completely locked ... and that you have the right
machine. After you have completed the work, restore the operational readiness in the
inverse sequence.
WARNING
Danger to life through a hazardous voltage when connecting an unsuitable power supply
Death or serious injury can result when live parts are touched in the event of a fault.
Only use power supplies that provide SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV(Protective Extra Low Voltage) output voltages for all connections and terminals of the
electronics modules.

11
Safety instructions
1.1 General safety instructions
WARNING
Danger to life when live parts are touched on damaged devices
Improper handling of devices can cause damage.
Hazardous voltages can be present at the housing or exposed components on damaged
devices.
Ensure compliance with the limit values specified in the technical data during transport,
storage and operation.
Do not use any damaged devices.
Protect the components against conductive pollution, e.g., by installing them in a control
cabinet with IP54 degree of protection according to IEC 60529 or NEMA 12. Provided
conductive pollution can be prevented at the installation site, the degree of protection for
the cabinet can be decreased accordingly.
WARNING
Danger of fire spreading due to inadequate housing
Fire and smoke development can cause severe personal injury or material damage.
Install devices without a protective housing in a metal control cabinet (or protect the
device by another equivalent measure) in such a way that contact with fire inside and
outside the device is prevented.
Additionally, select the installation site so that an uncontrolled spreading of smoke can
be avoided in the case of a fire.
Ensure that smoke can escape via designated paths.
WARNING
Danger to life through unexpected movement of machines when using mobile wireless
devices or mobile phones
Using mobile wireless devices or mobile phones with a transmitter power > 1 W closer than
approx. 2 m to the components may cause the devices to malfunction and influence the
functional safety of machines, therefore putting people at risk or causing material damage.
Switch the wireless devices or mobile phones off in the immediate vicinity of the
components.
WARNING
Fire hazard for the motor due to overload of the insulation
There is a greater load on the motor insulation through a ground fault in an IT system. A
possible result is the failure of the insulation with a risk for personnel through smoke
development and fire.
Use a monitoring device that signals an insulation fault.
Correct the fault as quickly as possible so the motor insulation is not overloaded.
12
Safety instructions
1.1 General safety instructions
WARNING
Fire hazard due to overheating because of inadequate ventilation clearances
Inadequate ventilation clearances can cause overheating with a risk for personnel through
smoke development and fire. This can also result in increased downtime and reduced
service lives for devices / systems.
Ensure compliance with the specified minimum clearance as ventilation clearance for
the respective component. They can be found in the dimension drawings or in the
"Product-specific safety instructions" at the start of the respective section.
WARNING
Danger to life through electric shock due to unconnected cable shields
Hazardous touch voltages can occur through capacitive cross-coupling due to unconnected
cable shields.
Connect cable shields and unused conductors of power cables (e.g., brake conductors)
at least on one side to the grounded housing potential.
WARNING
Danger to life when safety functions are inactive
Safety functions that are inactive or that have not been adjusted accordingly can cause
operational faults on machines that could lead to serious injury or death.
Observe the information in the appropriate product documentation before
commissioning.
Carry out a safety inspection for functions relevant to safety on the entire system,
including all safety-related components.
Ensure that the safety functions used in your drives and automation tasks are adjusted
and activated through appropriate parameterizing.
Run a function test.
Only put your plant into live operation once you have guaranteed that the functions
relevant to safety are running correctly.
Note
Important safety notices for safety functions
If you want to use safety functions, you must observe the safety notices in the safety
manuals.

13
Safety instructions
1.2 Safety instructions for electromagnetic fields (EMF)
1.2
Safety instructions for electromagnetic fields (EMF)

WARNING
Danger to life from electromagnetic fields
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are generated by the operation of electrical power equipment
such as transformers, converters or motors.
People with pacemakers or implants are at a special risk in the immediate vicinity of these
devices/systems.
Keep a distance of at least 2 m.
1.3
Handling electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)

Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are individual components, integrated circuits, modules
or devices that may be damaged by either electric fields or electrostatic discharge.
NOTICE
Damage through electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can cause malfunctions through damaged
individual components, integrated circuits, modules or devices.
Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their
original packaging or in other suitable materials, e.g conductive foam rubber of
aluminum foil.
Only touch components, modules and devices when you are grounded by one of the
following methods:
Wearing an ESD wrist strap
Wearing ESD shoes or ESD grounding straps in ESD areas with conductive flooring
Only place electronic components, modules or devices on conductive surfaces (table
with ESD surface, conductive ESD foam, ESD packaging, ESD transport container).
1.4
Residual risks of power drive systems
Residual risks of power drive systems

The control and drive components of a drive system are approved for industrial and
commercial use in industrial line supplies. Their use in public line supplies requires a
different configuration and/or additional measures.
14
Safety instructions
1.4 Residual risks of power drive systems
These components may only be operated in closed housings or in higher-level control
cabinets with protective covers that are closed, and when all of the protective devices are
used.
These components may only be handled by qualified and trained technical personnel who
are knowledgeable and observe all of the safety instructions on the components and in the
associated technical user documentation.
When assessing the machine's risk in accordance with the respective local regulations (e.g.,
EC Machinery Directive), the machine manufacturer must take into account the following
residual risks emanating from the control and drive components of a drive system:
1. Unintentional movements of driven machine components during commissioning,
operation, maintenance, and repairs caused by, for example:
Hardware defects and/or software errors in the sensors, controllers, actuators, and
connection technology
Response times of the controller and drive
Operating and/or surrounding conditions outside of the specification
Condensation / conductive contamination
Parameterization, programming, cabling, and installation errors
Use of radio devices / cellular phones in the immediate vicinity of the controller
External influences / damage
2. In the event of a fault, exceptionally high temperatures, including an open fire, as well as
emissions of light, noise, particles, gases, etc. can occur inside and outside the inverter,
e.g.:
Component malfunctions
Software errors
Inverters of the Open Type / IP20 degree of protection must be installed in a metal control
cabinet (or protected by another equivalent measure) such that the contact with fire inside
and outside the inverter is not possible.
3. Hazardous shock voltages caused by, for example:
Component malfunctions
Influence of electrostatic charging
Induction of voltages in moving motors
Condensation / conductive contamination

The minimum voltage of 24 VDC -10% must be available at the connector on the motor side in
order to guarantee that the brake reliably opens. If the maximum voltage of 24 VDC +10% is exceeded, then the brake could re-close. The voltage drop along the brake feeder cable must be
taken into consideration. The voltage drop U for copper cables can be approximately calculated
as follows:
U [V] = 0.042 mm2/m (l/q) IBrake

Where: l = Cable length [m], q = Brake cable cross section [mm2], IBrake = DC current of brake [A]

When SINAMICS V90 works with a motor with a brake, the voltage tolerance of 24 VDC power supply must be -10% to
+10% to meet the voltage requirement of the brake.
2)
Integral solid state short circuit protection does not provide branch circuit protection. Branch circuit protection must be
provided in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any additional local codes.
3)
SINAMICS V90 does not support motor overtemperature protection. Motor overtemperature is calculated by I2t and
protected by the output current from the drive.

Restricted emergency stop operation is permissible. Up to 2000 braking operations can be executed with 300% rotor
moment of inertia as external moment of inertia from a speed of 3000 RPM without the brake being subject to an inadmissible amount of wear.
2)
This lifetime is only for reference. When a motor keeps running at rated speed under rated load, replace its bearing after
20,000 to 30,000 hours of service time. Even if the time is not reached, the bearing must be replaced when unusual
noise, vibration, or faults are found.
3)
This lifetime is only for reference. When a motor keeps running at 80% rated value and the surrounding temperature is
30 C, the encoder lifetime can be ensured.

Torque-Speed characteristics
42
General information
2.7 Technical data
Note
Continuous operating area is a series of states when a motor can operate continuously
and safely. The effective torque must be located in this area.
Short-term operating area is a series of states when a motor can operate for a short
duration if its effective torque is smaller than the rated torque.
For the motors with different rated and maximum speeds, the output torque will decline at
a faster rate after the speed exceeds the rated speed.
The feature in short-term operating area varies with power supply voltages.
The continuous operating area becomes smaller and the voltage drop grows larger when
the cables in the major loop exceed 20 meters.
For 1FL6096 motors, the maximum speed can be ensured when the line supply voltage is
higher than 380V.

Mounting the motor

WARNING
Personal injury and material damage
Some motors, especially the 1FL609 are heavy. The excessive weight of the motor
should be considered and any necessary assistance required for mounting should be
sought.
Otherwise, the motor can fall down during mounting. This can result in serious personal
injury or material damage.
NOTICE
Damage to the motor
If the liquid enters the motor, the motor may be damaged
During motor installation or operation, make sure that no liquid (water, oil, etc.) can
penetrate into the motor. Besides, when installing the motor horizontally, make sure that the
cable outlet faces downward to protect the motor from ingress of oil or water.
52
Mounting
Note
Using the eyebolts
The 1FL609 motor (90 mm shaft height) has two M8 screw holes for screwing in two
eyebolts. Lift the 1FL609 motor only at the eyebolts.
Eyebolts that have been screwed in must be either tightened or removed after mounting.
To ensure better heat dissipation, install a flange between the machine and the motor. You
can install the motor onto the flange with 4 screws as shown in the following figure.
The information about the screws and the flange is as follows:

WARNING
Material damages and personal injuries by the drop of a vertical axis
When the servo system is used as a vertical axis, the axis will drop if the positive and
negative poles of the 24 V power supply are connected inversely. Unexpected drop of the
vertical axis may cause material damages and personal injuries.
Make sure that the 24 V power supply is correctly connected.
WARNING
Material damages and personal injuries by the drop of a hanging axis
It is not allowed to use the STO with a hanging axis because the axis may drop.
Unexpected drop of the hanging axis may cause material damages and personal injuries.
Note
Using the STO function
The STO1, STO+ and STO2 are short connected at the factory setting.
When the STO function is to be used, you must remove the short-circuit stick before

Commissioning
Prior to commissioning, read "Basic operator panel (BOP) (Page 109)" for more information
about the BOP operations. In case of any faults or alarms during commissioning, refer to
Chapter "Diagnostics (Page 251)" for detailed description.
CAUTION
Carefully read the safety instructions
Before your commissioning or operation, read Section "General safety instructions
(Page 11)" and the safety instructions on "Commissioning/Operation" in Section "Additional
safety instructions (Page 16)" carefully. Failure to observe the instructions may cause
serious effects.
WARNING
Material damages and personal injuries by the drop of a hanging axis
When the servo system is used as a hanging axis, the axis will drop if the positive and
negative poles of the 24 V power supply are connected inversely. Unexpected drop of the
hanging axis may cause material damages and personal injuries.
Before commissioning, a crosstie must be used to hold the hanging axis in prevention of an
unexpected drop. In addition, make sure that the 24 V power supply is correctly connected.
NOTICE
Plugging or unplugging the SD card will cause startup failure.
Do not plug or unplug the SD card during startup; otherwise, the drive will fail to start up.
NOTICE
Existing setting data may be overwritten by the setting data on the SD card during startup.
When a drive is switched on with an SD card containing user setting data, the existing
setting data on the drive will be overwritten.
When a drive is switched on with an SD card containing no user setting data, the drive
will automatically save the existing user setting data onto the SD card.
Before starting up the drive with an SD card, check whether the SD card contains user
setting data. Otherwise, the existing data on the drive may be overwritten.

perido of time; or p29003 = 7 and the motor has been working in torque control mode for a
certain period of time, the fault code F7493 might appear on the drive BOP. This, however,
will not cause the motor to stop. The motor remains operative under this circumstance and
you can clear the fault code manually.
Note
Fault F52904 occurs when the control mode is changed via p29003. You must save the
parameter and then re-power on the servo drive to apply relevant configurations. For more
information about the remedy and acknowledgement of this fault, refer to Section "List of
faults and alarms (Page 255)".
Note
Switching conditions
For the switching from PTI or IPos to S or T, you are recommended to perform control mode
switching after the INP (in position) signal is at high level.
For the switching from S or T to PTI or IPos, you can perform control mode switching only
after the motor speed is lower than 30 rpm.

WARNING
The polarity of PTO cannot be changed at a reversal of the direction of motor rotation.
For an application of fully closed-loop position control using PTI and PTO, reverse wiring
must be done for A track and B track of PTO.
Note
After modifying parameter p29001, you must save the parameter and then restart the drive
to ensure normal operation. In this case, you must perform referencing again because the
reference point will be lost after p29001 changes.
7.2.3
Over-travel
When the servo motor travels over distance limit, limit switch is turned on and servo motor
then has an emergency stop.
Travel limit signals (CWL/CCWL)

NOTICE
Some important information about the travel limit signals (CWL/CCWL)
Both of the signals must be at the high level when the servo drive is powered on.
Operation is possible only when both CWL and CCWL are at the high level (logic 1).
In all the modes, signal CWL/CCWL can be responded, which means when F7492 or
F7491 happens, the motor can run over the travel limit if the fault is acknowledged.
For a positive traversing direction, if the STOP cam plus is reached, F7492 will
happen. To clear the fault, acknowledge it with CLR, and then leave away from the
STOP cam plus in the negative traversing direction to return the axis to the valid
traversing range.
For a negative traversing direction, if the STOP cam minus is reached, F7491 will
happen. To clear the fault, acknowledge it with CLR, and then leave away from the
STOP cam minus in the positive traversing direction to return the axis to the valid
traversing range.

Motor holding brake

A holding brake is used to hold the position of the servo motor when the motor power is cut
off. The servo motor can move because of its own weight or an external force even the
motor power has been cut off.

131
Control functions
Holding brake is built in servo motors with brakes.
Note
The brake built in the servo motor with brakes is a de-energization brake. It is used only
to hold the servo motor and cannot be used for motor braking. Use the holding brake only
to hold a stopped motor.
The holding brake is activated at the same time when the motor power is cut off.

Braking sequence
The operating principle of the holding brake is configured during motor selection for motors
with incremental encoders and configured automatically for motors with absolute encoders.
The start of the closing time for the brake depends on the expiration of the shorter of p1227
(zero speed detection monitoring time) and p1228 (pulse suppression delay time).

Electronic gear
With the function of electronic gear, you can define the motor revolutions according to the
number of setpoint pulses, and sequentially define the distance of mechanical movement.
The minimum travelling distance of load shaft according to one setpoint pulse is called a
length unit (LU); for example, one pulse results in 1 m movement.

Setting mechanical system

By parameterizing the mechanical system, the link between the physical moving part and the
length unit (LU) is established.
The unit of the fixed position setpoint is the Length Unit (LU). All subsequent position
setpoint, related speed value, and acceleration value will maintain the LU as the unit in
internal position control mode.
Taking a ball screw system for example, if the system has a pitch of 10 mm/revolution
(10000 m/revolution) and the resolution of the length unit is 1 m (1 LU = 1 m), one load
revolution corresponds to 10000 LU (p29247 = 10000).
Note
If the value of p29247 increases by N times, the values of p2542, p2544 and p2546 should
increase by N times accordingly. Otherwise, the fault F7450 or F7452 occur.

Configuring linear/modular axis

Linear axis or modular axis can be used depending on your actual application. The linear
axis has a restricted traversing range and it is the factory setting of the SINAMICS V90 servo
drive.
The modular axis has an unrestricted traversing range. The value range of the position
repeats itself after a value specified in p29245. You can use the modular axis by setting the
following parameters additionally:

Backlash compensation
Generally, backlash occurs when the mechanical force is transferred between a machine
part and its drive:
If the mechanical system was to be adjusted/designed so that there was absolutely no

backlash, this would result in high wear. Thus, backlash can occur between the machine
component and the encoder. For axes with indirect position sensing, mechanical backlash
results in a false traversing distance because the axis, at direction reversal, travels either too
far or not far enough corresponding to the absolute value of the backlash.
Note
Pre-conditions for backlash compensation
The backlash compensation is active after
the axis has been referenced for incremental measuring system. Refer to Section
"Referencing (Page 153)" for detailed information about referencing.
the axis has been adjusted for absolute measuring system. Refer to Section "Adjusting an
absolute encoder (Page 126)" for reference.
152
Control functions
In order to compensate the backlash, the determined backlash must be specified in p2583
with correct polarity. At each direction of rotation reversal, the axis actual value is corrected
dependent on the actual traversing direction.
If the axis has been referenced or adjusted, then the setting of parameter p2604 (reference
point approach, starting direction) is used to activate the compensation value:

Control functions
External reference cam (signal REF) and encoder zero mark (p29240=1)
The referencing is triggered by signal SREF. After that, the servo motor accelerates to the
speed specified in p2605 to find the reference cam. The direction (CW or CCW) for
searching the reference cam is defined by p2604. When the reference cam is reached
(signal REF: 01), the servo motor decelerates to standstill. After that, the servo motor
accelerates again to the speed specified in p2608 and the running direction is opposite to the
direction defined by p2604. Then the signal REF should be switched off (10). When the
servo motor reaches the first zero mark, it starts to travel towards the reference point defined
in p2600 with the speed specified in p2611. When the servo motor reaches the reference
point (p2599), the signal REFOK is output. Switch off the signal SREF (10) and the
referencing finishes successfully.

Ramp-function generator
The ramp-function generator is used to limit acceleration in the event of abrupt setpoint
changes and thus helps prevent load surges during drive operation.
The ramp-up time p1120 and ramp-down time p1121 can be used to set acceleration and
deceleration ramps separately. This allows a smoothed transition in the event of setpoint
changes.
The maximum speed p1082 is used as the reference value for calculating the ramp-up and

Standards and regulations
8.1.1
General information
8.1.1.1
Aims
Manufacturers and operating companies of equipment, machines, and products are

responsible for ensuring the required level of safety. This means that plants, machines, and
other equipment must be designed to be as safe as possible in accordance with the current
state of the art. To ensure this, companies describe in the various standards the current
state of the art covering all aspects relevant to safety. When the relevant Standards are
observed, this ensures that state-of-the-art technology has been utilized and, in turn, the
erector/builder of a plant or a manufacturer of a machine or a piece of equipment has fulfilled
his appropriate responsibility.
Safety systems are designed to minimize potential hazards for both people and the
environment by means of suitable technical equipment, without restricting industrial
production and the use of machines more than is necessary. The protection of man and
environment must be assigned equal importance in all countries, which is it is important that
rules and regulations that have been internationally harmonized are applied. This is also
designed to avoid distortions in the competition due to different safety requirements in
different countries.
There are different concepts and requirements in the various regions and countries of the
world when it comes to ensuring the appropriate degree of safety. The legislation and the
requirements of how and when proof is to be given and whether there is an adequate level of
safety are just as different as the assignment of responsibilities.
The most important thing for manufacturers of machines and companies that set up plants
and systems is that the legislation and regulations in the country where the machine or plant
is being operated apply. For example, the control system for a machine that is to be used in
the US must fulfill local US requirements even if the machine manufacturer (OEM) is based
in the European Economic Area (EEA).

177

8.1 Standards and regulations
8.1.1.2
Functional safety
Safety, from the perspective of the object to be protected, cannot be split-up. The causes of
hazards and, in turn, the technical measures to avoid them can vary significantly. This is why
a differentiation is made between different types of safety (e.g. by specifying the cause of
possible hazards). "Functional safety" is involved if safety depends on the correct function.
To ensure the functional safety of a machine or plant, the safety-related parts of the
protection and control devices must function correctly. In addition, the systems must behave
in such a way that either the plant remains in a safe state or it is brought into a safe state if a
fault occurs. In this case, it is necessary to use specially qualified technology that fulfills the
requirements described in the associated Standards. The requirements to achieve functional
safety are based on the following basic goals:
Avoiding systematic faults
Controlling systematic faults
Controlling random faults or failures
Benchmarks for establishing whether or not a sufficient level of functional safety has been
achieved include the probability of hazardous failures, the fault tolerance, and the quality that
is to be ensured by minimizing systematic faults. This is expressed in the Standards using
different terms. In IEC/EN 61508, IEC/EN 62061 "Safety Integrity Level" (SIL) and EN ISO
13849-1 "Categories" and "Performance Level" (PL).
8.1.2
Safety of machinery in Europe

The EU Directives that apply to the implementation of products are based on Article 95 of the
EU contract, which regulates the free exchange of goods. These are based on a new global
concept ("new approach", "global approach"):
EU Directives only specify general safety goals and define basic safety requirements.
Technical details can be defined by means of standards by Standards Associations that
have the appropriate mandate from the commission of the European Parliament and
Council (CEN, CENELEC). These standards are harmonized in line with a specific
directive and listed in the official journal of the commission of the European Parliament
and Council. Legislation does not specify that certain standards have to be observed.
When the harmonized Standards are observed, it can be assumed that the safety
requirements and specifications of the Directives involved have been fulfilled.
EU Directives specify that the Member States must mutually recognize domestic
regulations.
The EU Directives are equal. This means that if several Directives apply for a specific piece
of equipment or device, the requirements of all of the relevant Directives apply (e.g. for a
machine with electrical equipment, the Machinery Directive and the Low-Voltage Directive
apply).
178

8.1.2.1
Machinery Directive
The basic safety and health requirements specified in Annex I of the Directive must be
fulfilled for the safety of machines.
The protective goals must be implemented responsibly to ensure compliance with the
Directive.
Manufacturers of a machine must verify that their machine complies with the basic
requirements. This verification is facilitated by means of harmonized standards.
8.1.2.2
Harmonized European Standards

The two Standards Organizations CEN (Comit Europen de Normalisation) and CENELEC
(Comit Europen de Normalisation lectrotechnique), mandated by the EU Commission,
drew-up harmonized European standards in order to precisely specify the requirements of
the EC directives for a specific product. These standards (EN standards) are published in the
official journal of the commission of the European Parliament and Council and must be
included without revision in domestic standards. They are designed to fulfill basic health and
safety requirements as well as the protective goals specified in Annex I of the Machinery
Directive.
When the harmonized standards are observed, it is "automatically assumed" that the
Directive is fulfilled. As such, manufacturers can assume that they have observed the safety
aspects of the Directive under the assumption that these are also covered in this standard.
However, not every European Standard is harmonized in this sense. Key here is the listing in
the official journal of the commission of the European Parliament and Council.
The European Safety of Machines standard is hierarchically structured. It is divided into:
A standards (basic standards)
B standards (group standards)
C standards (product standards)
Type A standards/basic standards
A standards include basic terminology and definitions relating to all types of machine. This
includes EN ISO 12100-1 (previously EN 292-1) "Safety of Machines, Basic Terminology,
General Design Principles".
A standards are aimed primarily at the bodies responsible for setting the B and C standards.
The measures specified here for minimizing risk, however, may also be useful for
manufacturers if no applicable C standards have been defined.
Type B standards/group standards
B standards cover all safety-related standards for various different machine types. B
standards are aimed primarily at the bodies responsible for setting C standards. They can
also be useful for manufacturers during the machine design and construction phases,
however, if no applicable C standards have been defined.

179

A further sub-division has been made for B standards:
Type B1 standards for higher-level safety aspects (e.g. ergonomic principles, safety
clearances from sources of danger, minimum clearances to prevent parts of the body
from being crushed).
Type B2 standards for protective safety devices are defined for different machine types
(e.g. EMERGENCY STOP devices, two-hand operating circuits, interlocking elements,
contactless protective devices, safety-related parts of controls).
Type C standards/product standards
C standards are product-specific standards (e.g. for machine tools, woodworking machines,
elevators, packaging machines, printing machines etc.). Product standards cover machinespecific requirements. The requirements can, under certain circumstances, deviate from the
basic and group standards. Type C/product standards have the highest priority for machine
manufacturers who can assume that it fulfills the basic requirements of Annex I of the
Machinery Directive (automatic presumption of compliance). If no product standard has been
defined for a particular machine, type B standards can be applied when the machine is
constructed.
A complete list of the standards specified and the mandated draft standards are available on
the Internet at the following address:
http://www.newapproach.org/
Recommendation: Due to the rapid pace of technical development and the associated
changes in machine concepts, the standards (and C standards in particular) should be
checked to ensure that they are up to date. Please note that the application of a particular
standard may not be mandatory provided that all the safety requirements of the applicable
EU directives are fulfilled.
180

8.1.2.3
Standards for implementing safety-related controllers

If the functional safety of a machine depends on various control functions, the controller must
be implemented in such a way that the probability of the safety functions failing is sufficiently
minimized. EN ISO 13849-1 (formerly EN 954-1) and EN IEC61508 define principles for
implementing safety-related machine controllers which, when properly applied, ensure that
all the safety requirements of the EC Machinery Directive are fulfilled. These standards
ensure that the relevant safety requirements of the Machinery Directive are fulfilled.
Figure 8-1
Standards for implementing safety-related controllers
The application areas of EN ISO 13849-1, EN 62061, and EN 61508 are very similar. To
help users make an appropriate decision, the IEC and ISO associations have specified the
application areas of both standards in a joint table in the introduction to the standards. EN
ISO 13849-1 or EN 62061 should be applied depending on the technology (mechanics,
hydraulics, pneumatics, electrics, electronics and programmable electronics), risk
classification and architecture.

8.1.2.4
DIN EN ISO 13849-1 (replaces EN 954-1)

A qualitative analysis according to DIN EN 13849-1 is not sufficient for modern control
systems due to their technology. Among other things, DIN EN ISO 13849-1 does not take
into account time behavior (e.g. test interval and/or cyclic test, lifetime). This results in the
probabilistic approach in DIN EN ISO 13849-1 (probability of failure per unit time).
DIN EN ISO 13849-1 is based on the known categories of EN 954-1. It now also takes into
account complete safety functions and all the devices required to execute these. With DIN
EN ISO 13849-1, safety functions are investigated from a quantitative perspective going
beyond the qualitative basis of EN 954-1. Performance levels (PL), which are based on the
categories, are used. The following safety-related characteristic quantities are required for
devices/equipment:
Category (structural requirement)
PL: Performance level
MTTFd: Mean time to dangerous failure
DC: Diagnostic coverage
CCF: Common cause failure
The standard describes how the performance level (PL) is calculated for safety-related
components of the controller on the basis of designated architectures. In the event of any
deviations from this, EN ISO 13849-1 refers to EN 61508.
182

When combining several safety-related parts to form a complete system, the standard
explains how to determine the resulting PL.
Note
DIN EN ISO 13849-1 and machinery directive
Since May 2007, DIN EN ISO 13849-1 has been harmonized as part of the Machinery
Directive.
8.1.2.5
EN 62061
EN 62061 (identical to IEC 62061) is a sector-specific standard subordinate to IEC/EN
61508. It describes the implementation of safety-related electrical machine control systems
and looks at the complete life cycle, from the conceptual phase to decommissioning. The
standard is based on the quantitative and qualitative analyses of safety functions, whereby it
systematically applies a top-down approach to implementing complex control systems
(known as "functional decomposition"). The safety functions derived from the risk analysis
are sub-divided into sub-safety functions, which are then assigned to real devices, subsystems, and sub-system elements. Both the hardware and software are covered. EN 62061
also describes the requirements placed on implementing application programs.
A safety-related control system comprises different sub-systems. From a safety perspective,
the sub-systems are described in terms of the SIL claim limit and PFHD characteristic
quantities.
Programmable electronic devices (e.g. PLCs or variable-speed drives) must fulfill EN 61508.
They can then be integrated in the controller as sub-systems. The following safety-related
characteristic quantities must be specified by the manufacturers of these devices.
Safety-related characteristic quantities for subsystems:
SIL CL: SIL claim limit
PFHD: Probability of dangerous failures per hour
T1: Lifetime
Simple sub-systems (e.g. sensors and actuators) in electromechanical components can, in
turn, comprise sub-system elements (devices) interconnected in different ways with the
characteristic quantities required for determining the relevant PFHD value of the sub-system.
Safety-related characteristic quantities for subsystem elements (devices):
: Failure rate
B10 value: For elements that are subject to wear
T1: Lifetime
For electromechanical devices, a manufacturer specifies a failure rate with reference to the
number of operating cycles. The failure rate per unit time and the lifetime must be
determined using the switching frequency for the particular application.

183

Parameters for the sub-system, which comprises sub-system elements, that must be defined
during the design phase:
T2: Diagnostic test interval
: Susceptibility to common cause failure
DC: Diagnostic coverage
The PFHD value of the safety-related controller is determined by adding the individual PFHD
values for subsystems.
The user has the following options when setting up a safety-related controller:
Use devices and sub-systems that already comply with EN ISO 13849-1, IEC/EN 61508,
or IEC/EN 62061. The standard provides information specifying how qualified devices
can be integrated when safety functions are implemented.
Develop own subsystems:
Programmable, electronic systems and complex systems: Application of EN 61508 or
EN 61800-5-2.
Simple devices and subsystems: Application of EN 62061.
EN 62061 does not include information about non-electric systems. The standard provides
detailed information on implementing safety-related electrical, electronic, and programmable
electronic control systems. EN ISO 13849-1 must be applied for non-electric systems.
Note
Function examples
Details of simple sub-systems that have been implemented and integrated are now available
as "functional examples".
Note
EN 62061 and machinery directive
IEC 62061 has been ratified as EN 62061 in Europe and harmonized as part of the
Machinery Directive.
8.1.2.6
Series of standards EN 61508 (VDE 0803)

This series of standards describes the current state of the art.
EN 61508 is not harmonized in line with any EU directives, which means that an automatic
presumption of conformity for fulfilling the protective requirements of a directive is not implied.
The manufacturer of a safety-related product, however, can also use EN 61508 to fulfill basic
requirements of European directives in accordance with the latest conceptual design, for
example, in the following cases:
If no harmonized standard exists for the application in question. In this case, the
manufacturer can use EN 61508, although no presumption of conformity exists here.
A harmonized European standard (e.g. EN 62061, EN ISO 13849, EN 60204-1)
references EN 61508. This ensures that the appropriate requirements of the directives
are fulfilled ("standard that is also applicable"). When manufacturers apply EN 61508
184

properly and responsibly in accordance with this reference, they can use the presumption
of conformity of the referencing standard.
EN 61508 covers all the aspects that must be taken into account when E/E/PES systems
(electrical, electronic, and programmable electronic System) are used in order to execute
safety functions and/or to ensure the appropriate level of functional safety. Other hazards
(e.g. electric shock) are, as in EN ISO 13849, not part of the standard.
EN 61508 has recently been declared the "International Basic Safety Publication", which
makes it a framework for other, sector-specific standards (e.g. EN 62061). As a result, this
standard is now accepted worldwide, particularly in North America and in the automotive
industry. Today, many regulatory bodies already stipulate it (e.g. as a basis for NRTL listing).
Another recent development with respect to EN 61508 is its system approach, which extends
the technical requirements to include the entire safety installation from the sensor to the
actuator, the quantification of the probability of hazardous failure due to random hardware
failures, and the creation of documentation covering all phases of the safety-related lifecycle
of the E/E/PES.
8.1.2.7
Risk analysis/assessment
Risks are intrinsic in machines due to their design and functionality. For this reason, the
Machinery Directive requires that a risk assessment be performed for each machine and, if
necessary, the level of risk reduced until the residual risk is less than the tolerable risk. To
assess these risks, the following standards must be applied:
EN ISO 12100-1 "Safety of Machinery - basic terminology, general principles for design"
EN ISO 13849-1 (successor to EN 954-1) "Safety-related parts of control systems"
EN ISO 12100-1 focuses on the risks to be analyzed and the design principles for minimizing
risk.
The risk assessment is a procedure that allows hazards resulting from machines to be
systematically investigated. Where necessary, the risk assessment is followed by a risk
reduction procedure. When the procedure is repeated, this is known as an iterative process.
This can help eliminate hazards (as far as this is possible) and can act as a basis for
implementing suitable protective measures.
The risk assessment involves the following:
Risk analysis
Determines the limits of the machine (EN ISO 12100-1)
Identification of the hazards (EN ISO 12100-114)
Estimating the level of risk (EN 1050 Paragraph 7)
Risk evaluation
As part of the iterative process to achieve the required level of safety, a risk assessment is
carried out after the risk estimation. A decision must be made here as to whether the
residual risk needs to be reduced. If the risk is to be further reduced, suitable protective
measures must be selected and applied. The risk assessment must then be repeated.

185

Figure 8-2 Iterative process for achieving safety
Risks must be reduced by designing and implementing the machine accordingly (e.g. by
means of controllers or protective measures suitable for the safety-related functions).
If the protective measures involve the use of interlocking or control functions, these must be
designed according to EN ISO 13849-1. For electrical and electronic controllers, EN 62061
can be used as an alternative to EN ISO 13849-1. Electronic controllers and bus systems
must also comply with IEC/EN 61508.
8.1.2.8
Risk reduction
Risk reduction measures for a machine can be implemented by means of safety-related
control functions in addition to structural measures. To implement these control functions,
special requirements must be taken into account, graded according to the magnitude of the
risk. These are described in EN ISO 13849-1 or, in the case of electrical controllers
(particularly programmable electronics), in EN 61508 or EN 62061. The requirements
regarding safety-related controller components are graded according to the magnitude of the
risk and the level to which the risk needs to be reduced.
EN ISO 13849-1 defines a risk flow chart that instead of categories results in hierarchically
graduated Performance Levels (PL).
IEC/EN 62061 uses "Safety Integrity Level" (SIL) for classification purposes. This is a
quantified measure of the safety-related performance of a controller. The required SIL is also
186

determined in accordance with the risk assessment principle according to ISO 12100 (EN
1050). Annex A of the standard describes a method for determining the required Safety
Integrity Level (SIL).
Regardless of which standard is applied, steps must be taken to ensure that all the machine
controller components required for executing the safety-related functions fulfill these
requirements.
8.1.2.9
Residual risk
In today's technologically advanced world, the concept of safety is relative. The ability to
ensure safety to the extent that risk is ruled out in all circumstances "zero-risk guarantee"
is practically impossible. The residual risk is the risk that remains once all the relevant
protective measures have been implemented in accordance with the latest state of the art.
Residual risks must be clearly referred to in the machine/plant documentation (user
information according to EN ISO 12100-2).
8.1.3
Machine safety in the USA

A key difference between the USA and Europe in the legal requirements regarding safety at
work is that, in the USA, no legislation exists regarding machinery safety that is applicable in
all of the states and that defines the responsibility of the manufacturer/supplier. A general
requirement exists stating that employers must ensure a safe workplace.
8.1.3.1
Minimum requirements of the OSHA

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) from 1970 regulates the requirement that
employers must offer a safe place of work. The core requirements of OSHA are specified in
Section 5 "Duties".
The requirements of the OSH Act are managed by the "Occupational Safety and Health
Administration" (also known as OSHA). OSHA employs regional inspectors who check
whether or not workplaces comply with the applicable regulations.
The OSHA regulations are described in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.xxx ("OSHA Regulations (29
CFR) PART 1910 Occupational Safety and Health"). (CFR: Code of Federal Regulations.)
http://www.osha.gov
The application of standards is regulated in 29 CFR 1910.5 "Applicability of standards". The
concept is similar to that used in Europe. Product-specific standards have priority over
general standards insofar as they cover the relevant aspects. Once the standards are
fulfilled, employers can assume that they have fulfilled the core requirements of the OSH Act
with respect to the aspects covered by the standards.
In conjunction with certain applications, OSHA requires that all electrical equipment and
devices that are used to protect workers be authorized by an OSHA-certified, "Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratory" (NRTL) for the specific application.
In addition to the OSHA regulations, the current standards defined by organizations such as
NFPA and ANSI must be carefully observed and the extensive product liability legislation
that exists in the US taken into account. Due to the product liability legislation, it is in the

187

interests of manufacturing and operating companies that they carefully maintain the
applicable regulations and are "forced" to fulfill the requirement to use state-of-the-art
technology.
Third-party insurance companies generally demand that their customers fulfill the applicable
standards of the standards organizations. Self-insured companies are not initially subject to
this requirement but, in the event of an accident, they must provide verification that they
have applied generally-recognized safety principles.
8.1.3.2
NRTL listing
To protect employees, all electrical equipment used in the USA must be certified for the
planned application by a "Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory" (NRTL) certified by the
OSHA. NRTLs are authorized to certify equipment and material by means of listing, labeling,
or similar. Domestic standards (e.g. NFPA 79) and international standards (e.g. IEC/EN
61508 for E/E/PES systems) are the basis for testing.
8.1.3.3
NFPA 79
Standard NFPA 79 (Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery) applies to electrical
equipment on industrial machines with rated voltages of less than 600 V. A group of
machines that operate together in a coordinated fashion is also considered to be one
machine.
For programmable electronics and communication buses, NFPA 79 states as a basic
requirement that these must be listed if they are to be used to implement and execute safetyrelated functions. If this requirement is fulfilled, then electronic controls and communication
buses can also be used for Emergency Stop functions, Stop Categories 0 and 1 (refer to
NFPA 79 9.2.5.4.1.4). Like EN 60204-1, NFPA 79 no longer specifies that the electrical
energy must be disconnected by electromechanical means for emergency stop functions.
The core requirements regarding programmable electronics and communication buses are:
system requirements (see NFPA 79 9.4.3)
1. Control systems that contain software-based controllers must:
In the event of a single fault
cause the system to switch to a safe shutdown mode
prevent the system from restarting until the fault has been rectified
prevent an unexpected restart
Offer the same level of protection as hard-wired controllers
Be implemented in accordance with a recognized standard that defines the requirements
for such systems.
2. IEC 61508, IEC 62061, ISO 13849-1, ISO 13849 2 and IEC 61800-5-2 are specified as
suitable standards in a note.
Underwriter Laboratories Inc. (UL) has defined a special category for "Programmable Safety
Controllers" for implementing this requirement (code NRGF). This category covers control
devices that contain software and are designed for use in safety-related functions.
188

A precise description of the category and a list of devices that fulfill this requirement can be
found on the Internet at the following address:
http://www.ul.com certifications directory UL Category code/ Guide information search
for category "NRGF"
TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc. is also an NRTL for these applications.
8.1.3.4
ANSI B11
ANSI B11 standards are joint standards developed by associations such as the Association
for Manufacturing Technology (AMT) and the Robotic Industries Association (RIA).
The hazards of a machine are evaluated by means of a risk analysis/assessment. The risk
analysis is an important requirement in accordance with NFPA 79, ANSI/RIA 15.06, ANSI
B11.TR-3 and SEMI S10 (semiconductors). The documented findings of a risk analysis can
be used to select a suitable safety system based on the safety class of the application in
question.
The situation in Japan is different from that in Europe and the US. Legislation such as that
prescribed in Europe does not exist. Similarly, product liability does not play such an
important role as it does in the US.
Instead of legal requirements to apply standards have been defined, an administrative
recommendation to apply JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) is in place: Japan bases its
approach on the European concept and uses basic standards as national standards (see
table).

In addition to the requirements of the guidelines and standards, company-specific

requirements must be taken into account. Large corporations in particular (e.g. automobile
manufacturers) make stringent demands regarding automation components, which are often
listed in their own equipment specifications.
Safety-related issues (e.g. operating modes, operator actions with access to hazardous
areas, EMERGENCY STOP concepts, etc.) should be clarified with customers early on so

Machine safety in Japan

The situation in Japan is different from that in Europe and the US. Legislation such as that
prescribed in Europe does not exist. Similarly, product liability does not play such an
important role as it does in the US.
Instead of legal requirements to apply standards have been defined, an administrative
recommendation to apply JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) is in place: Japan bases its
approach on the European concept and uses basic standards as national standards (see
table).

Equipment regulations
In addition to the requirements of the guidelines and standards, company-specific
requirements must be taken into account. Large corporations in particular (e.g. automobile
manufacturers) make stringent demands regarding automation components, which are often
listed in their own equipment specifications.
Safety-related issues (e.g. operating modes, operator actions with access to hazardous
areas, EMERGENCY STOP concepts, etc.) should be clarified with customers early on so
that they can be integrated in the risk assessment/risk reduction process.

Safety instructions
Note
Additional safety information and residual risks not specified in this section are included in
the chapter "Safety instructions (Page 11)".
DANGER
Safety Integrated can be used to minimize the level of risk associated with machines and
plants.
Machines and plants can only be operated safely in conjunction with Safety Integrated,
however, when the machine manufacturer is familiar with and observes every aspect of this
technical user documentation, including the documented general conditions, safety
information, and residual risks.
Precisely knows and observes this technical user documentation - including the
documented limitations, safety information and residual risks;
Carefully constructs and configures the machine/plant. A careful and thorough acceptance
test must then be performed by qualified personnel and the results documented.
Implements and validates all the measures required in accordance with the machine/plant
risk analysis by means of the programmed and configured Safety Integrated functions or by
other means.
The use of Safety Integrated does not replace the machine/plant risk assessment carried
out by the machine manufacturer as required by the EC machinery directive.
In addition to using Safety Integrated functions, further risk reduction measures must be
implemented.

191

8.3 System features
WARNING
The Safety Integrated functions cannot be activated until the system has been completely
powered up. System startup is a critical operating state with increased risk. No personnel
may be present in the immediate danger zone in this phase.
The drives of vertical axes must be in torque state.
A complete forced dormant error detection cycle is required after power on.
WARNING
EN 60204-1:2006
Emergency Stop function must bring the machine to a standstill in accordance with STO.
The machine must not restart automatically after EMERGENCY STOP.
When the safety function is deactivated, an automatic restart is permitted under certain
circumstances depending on the risk analysis (except when Emergency Stop is reset). An
automatic start is permitted when a protective door is closed, for example.
WARNING
After hardware and/or software components have been modified or replaced, all protective
equipment must be closed prior to system startup and drive activation. Personnel shall not
be present within the danger zone.
Before allowing anybody to re-enter the danger zone, you should test steady control
response by briefly moving the drives in forward and reverse direction (+/).
To observe during power on:
The Safety Integrated functions are only available and can only be selected after the
system has completely powered up.
8.3.3
Probability of failure of the safety function (PHF value)
Probability of failure
The probability of the failure of safety functions must be specified in the form of a PFH value
(Probability of Failure per Hour) in accordance with IEC 61508, IEC 62061, and ISO 138491:2006. The PFH value of a safety function depends on the safety concept of the drive unit
and its hardware configuration, as well as on the PFH values of other components used for
this safety function.
Corresponding PFH values are provided for the SINAMICS V90 drive system, depending on
the hardware configuration (number of drives, control type, number of encoders used). The
various integrated safety functions are not differentiated.
The PHF values can be requested from your local sales office.

Response time
Response time means the time from the control via terminals until the response actually
occurs. The worst response time for the STO function is 5 ms.
8.3.5
Residual risk
The fault analysis enables the machine manufacturer to determine the residual risk at this
machine with regard to the drive unit. The following residual risks are known:
WARNING
Due to the intrinsic potential of hardware faults, electrical systems are subject to additional
residual risk, which can be expressed by means of the PFH value.
WARNING
Simultaneous failure of two power transistors (one in the upper and the other offset in the
lower inverter bridge) in the inverter may cause brief movement of the drive, depending on
the number of poles of the motor.
Maximum value of this movement:
Synchronous rotary motors: Max. movement = 180 / no. of pole pairs

Safety Integrated basic functions
8.4.1
Safe Torque Off (STO)

In conjunction with a machine function or in the event of a fault, the "Safe Torque Off" (STO)
function is used to safely disconnect the torque-generating energy feed to the motor.
When the function is selected, the drive unit is in a "safe status". The switching on inhibited
function prevents the drive unit from being restarted.
The two-channel pulse suppression function integrated in the Motor Modules/Power Modules
is a basis for this function.
Functional features of "Safe Torque Off"

This function is integrated in the drive; this means that a higher-level controller is not
required.
The function is drive-specific, i.e. it is available for each drive and must be individually
commissioned.

193

When the "Safe Torque Off" function is selected, the following applies:
The motor cannot be started accidentally.
The pulse suppression safely disconnects the torque-generating energy feed to the
motor.
The power unit and motor are not electrically isolated.
By selecting/deselecting STO, in addition to the fault messages, the safety messages are
also automatically withdrawn.
The STO function can be used wherever the drive naturally reaches a standstill due to load
torque or friction in a sufficiently short time or when "coasting down" of the drive will not have
any relevance for safety.
WARNING
Appropriate measures must be taken to ensure that the motor does not undesirably move
once the energy feed has been disconnected, e.g. against coasting down.
CAUTION
If two power transistors simultaneously fail in the power unit (one in the upper and one in
the lower bridge), then this can cause brief momentary movement.
The maximum movement can be:
Synchronous rotary motors: Max. movement = 180 / No. of pole pairs
Synchronous linear motors: Max. movement = pole width
Note
Closing delay of the holding brake
The closing signal (low level) of the holding brake is output 30 ms after the STO is triggered.
Preconditions for using the STO function
When use the STO function, the following preconditions should be fulfilled:
Each monitoring channel (STO1 and STO2) triggers safe pulse suppression with its
switch off signal path.
If a motor holding brake is connected and configured, the connected brake is not safe
because there is no safety function for brake, such as safe brake.

A motor holding brake is closed (if connected and configured).
Note
If "Safe Torque Off" is selected and de-selected through one channel within 2 seconds, the
pulses are suppressed without a message being output.
Restart after the "Safe Torque Off" function has been selected
1. Deselect the function in each monitoring channel via the input terminals.
2. Issue drive enable signals.
3. Switch the drive back on.

4. Operate the drives again.
Response time for the "Safe Torque Off" function

The worst response time for the STO function is 5 ms.
8.4.2
Forced dormant error detection
Forced dormant error detection or test of the switch-off signal paths for Safety Integrated Basic
Functions
The forced dormant error detection function at the switch-off signal paths is used to detect
software/hardware faults at both monitoring channels in time and is automated by means of
activation/deactivation of the "Safe Torque Off" function.
To fulfill the requirements of ISO 13849-1:2006 regarding timely error detection, the two
switch-off signal paths must be tested at least once within a defined time to ensure that they
are functioning properly. This functionality must be implemented by means of forced dormant
error detection function, triggered either in manual mode or by the automated process.

195

A timer ensures that forced dormant error detection is carried out as quickly as possible.
8760 hours for the forced dormant error detection.
Once this time has elapsed, an alarm is output and remains present until forced dormant
error detection is carried out.
The timer returns to the set value each time the STO function is deactivated.
When the appropriate safety devices are implemented (e.g. protective doors), it can be
assumed that running machinery will not pose any risk to personnel. For this reason, only an
alarm is output to inform the user that a forced dormant error detection run is due and to
request that this be carried out at the next available opportunity. This alarm does not affect
machine operation.
Examples of when to carry out forced dormant error detection:
When the drives are at a standstill after the system has been switched on (POWER ON).
When the protective door is opened.
At defined intervals.
In automatic mode (time and event dependent)
Note
The timer will be reset if the associated forced dormant error detection is executed. The
corresponding alarm is not triggered.
The forced dormant error detection procedure of Safety Function (STO) always has to be
executed through the terminals.
The mission time of the devices is 40000 hours.

Tuning
9.1
Controller overview
The SINAMICS V90 servo drive consists of three control loops:
Current control
Speed control
Position control
The following block diagram shows the relationship between these three control loops:
In theory, frequency width of the inside control loop must be wider than that of the outer
control loop; otherwise, the whole control system can vibrate or have a low response level.
The relationship between the frequency widths of these three control loops is as follows:
Current loop > speed loop > position loop
Since the current loop of SINAMICS V90 servo drive already has a perfect frequency width,
it is only necessary for you to adjust the speed loop gain and the position loop gain.

197
Tuning
9.1 Controller overview
Servo gains
Position loop gain
Position loop gain directly influences the response level of the position loop. If the
mechanical system does not vibrate or produce noises, you can increase the value of
position loop gain so that the response level can be increased and positioning time can
be shortened.

With adding integral component into speed loop, the servo drive can efficiently eliminate
the steady-state error of speed and give response to a small change to speed.
Generally speaking, if the mechanical system does not vibrate or produce noises, you
can decrease speed loop integral gain so that the system rigidity can be increased.
If the load inertia ratio is very high or the mechanical system has a resonance factor, it
must be guaranteed that the speed loop integral time constant is big enough; otherwise,
the mechanical system may have a resonance.

Position loop feed forward gain

With position loop feed forward gain, the responsiveness level can be increased. If the
position loop feed forward gain is too big, motor speed can have overshoots and the
digital output signal INP can have a repeated on/off. You, therefore, must monitor the
changes to speed waveform and the action of the digital output signal INP during
adjustment. You can slowly adjust the position loop feed forward gain. The effect of feed
forward function is not obvious if the position loop gain is too big.

First time commissioning mode

Responsivity of a machine can be optimized by tuning. The responsivity is reflected by
dynamic factor and determined by the servo gains that is set in the servo drive.
The servo gains are set by using a combination of parameters. These parameters influence
each other so you must consider the balance between set values when setting these values.
Generally, the responsivity of a machine with high rigidity can be improved by increasing the
servo gains; however, if the servo gains of a machine with low rigidity are increased, the
machine can vibrate and the responsivity cannot be improved.
NOTICE
Effectiveness of servo gains
The tuning function only uses the first group of servo gains (position loop gain 1, speed
loop gain 1 and speed loop integral time 1).
The following tuning functions are available for the SINAMICS V90 servo drive.

You can configure the dynamic factor of the servo system with the parameter p29020.
Higher dynamic factor means higher tracking ability and shorter settling time but also higher
possibility of resonance. You should find a desired dynamic factor within a resonance-free
range.

If the dynamic factor setting cannot be increased up to the desired level because of machine
resonance beyond 250Hz, the function of resonance suppression can be used to suppress
machine resonance and thus increase dynamic factor. Refer to Section "Resonance
suppression (Page 204)" for detailed information about the function of resonance
suppression.
9.3
Real-time auto tuning

Real-time auto tuning has two kinds of applications:
for positioning (p29021=3): adjust servo gains when performing single servo drive
positioning.
for interpolation (p29021=4): adjust servo gains when performing interpolation operation
of two or more servo drives. In this case, the tuning pre-control time constant p29028
must be set to an equal value in each drive.
With the real-time auto tuning, the servo drive can automatically estimate the load moment of
inertia ratio and set the optimum gains accordingly at real time.

Note
Pre-conditions for the real-time auto tuning
The real-time auto tuning may not be performed properly if the following conditions are not
satisfied:
Time to reach 2000 rpm is the acceleration/deceleration time constant of 5s or less.
Speed is 150 rpm or higher. The ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia
moment is 100 times or less.
The acceleration/deceleration torque is 10% or more of the rated torque.
Under operating conditions that impose sudden disturbance torque during
acceleration/deceleration or on a machine that is extremely loose, auto tuning may not
function properly, either. In such cases, use the manual tuning to make gain adjustment.
9.4
Manual tuning
When the auto tuning cannot reach expected tuning results, you can disable the auto tuning
function by setting the parameter p29021 and manually perform tuning:
p29021=5: auto tuning function is disabled and all control parameters (servo gains) are
reset to default values.
p29021=0: auto tuning function is disabled without changing control parameters (servo
gains).

The resonance suppression function is filter (notch filter) function. It detects mechanical
resonance at a frequency between 250 Hz and 1500 Hz, and decreases the gain of specific
frequency (by automatically setting notch filter) to suppress the mechanical resonance.
The gain decreasing frequency, width as well as depth can be set by setting the notch filter:

Note
The Gain Switching function is not available in T mode (torque control mode).
The function of auto-tuning must be disabled so that the function of gain switching can be

With this function, you can:
increase the gains during servo lock and decrease gains to reduce noise during rotation.
increase the gains during settling to shorten the stop settling time.
switch between two groups of gains using an external signal (G-CHANGE) to ensure
stability of the servo system because the load inertia moment ratio varies greatly during a
stop (for example, a large load is mounted on a carrier).
Selection of a gain switching mode

PI/P switching
Note
PI/P switching
Function of PI/P switching is not available for the T mode (torque control mode).
The functions of auto-tuning and gain switching must be disabled so that the function of PI/P
switching can be available.
The PI/P switching will respond with a delay time of several milliseconds.

211
Tuning
9.7 PI/P switching
The function of PI/P switching is used to switch from PI (Proportional/Integral) control of
speed controller to P (Proportional) control. With this function, you can:
shorten the position setting time (for the position control mode).
avoid overshooting of actual speed value during acceleration or deceleration (for the
speed control mode).
avoid unnecessary torque when the target position is at a mechanical limitation (for the
position control mode).
Selection of a switching mode for PI/P switching

Five switching modes in total are available for PI/P switching:
using torque setpoint
using an external digital input signal (G-CHANGE)
using speed setpoint
using acceleration setpoint
using pulse deviation
You can select one of the switching modes by setting parameter p29140:
Parameter

Value
Description
0 (default) Disabled.

Torque is higher than a parameterizable setting value.
Using the digital input signal (G-CHANGE)
Speed is higher than a parameterizable setting value.
Acceleration is higher than a parameterizable setting value.
Pulse deviation is higher than a parameterizable setting value.
212
Tuning
9.7 PI/P switching
Example
Without the function of PI/P switching
With the function of PI/P switching
Example 1: If the PI/P switching is not used, the speed of the motor may overshoot or undershoot due to torque saturation
during acceleration or deceleration. The mode switching function suppresses torque saturation and eliminates the overshooting or undershooting of the motor speed.
Example 2: The function of PI/P switching can be used to suppress overshooting and undershooting when speed loop gain
is increased

Caution: For the setting p1215 = 0, if a brake is used, it remains closed. If the motor moves, this will destroy
the brake.
Notice: If p1215 was set to 1 or if p1215 was set to 3, then when the pulses are suppressed, the brake is
closed even if the motor is still rotating.

Description: Sets the speed threshold for the standstill identification.

Acts on the actual value and setpoint monitoring. When braking with OFF1 or OFF3, when the threshold is
undershot, standstill is identified.
The following applies when the brake control is activated:
When the threshold is undershot, the brake control is started and the system waits for the brake closing time
in p1217. The pulses are then suppressed.
If the brake control is not activated, the following applies:
When the threshold is undershot, the pulses are suppressed and the drive coasts down.
Dependency: Refer to p1215, p1216, p1217, p1227
Notice: For reasons relating to the compatibility to earlier firmware versions, a parameter value of zero in
indices 1 to 31 is overwritten with the parameter value in index 0 when the drive boots.
Note: Standstill is identified in the following cases:
- The speed actual value falls below the speed threshold in p1226 and the time started after this in p1228 has
expired.
- The speed setpoint falls below the speed threshold in p1226 and the time started after this in p1227 has
expired.
The actual value sensing is subject to measuring noise. For this reason, standstill cannot be detected if the
speed threshold is too low.

When braking with OFF1 or OFF3, standstill is identified after this time has expired, after the setpoint speed
has fallen below p1226.
After this, the brake control is started, the system waits for the closing time in p1217 and then the pulses are
suppressed.
Dependency: Refer to p1215, p1216, p1217, p1226
Notice: The setpoint is not equal to zero dependent on the selected value. This can therefore cause the monitoring time in p1227 to be exceeded. In this case, for a driven motor, the pulses are not suppressed..

Note: If not all of the filters are required, then the filters should be used consecutively starting from filter 1. The
drive unit displays the value in hex format. To know the logic (high/low) assignment to each bit, you must
convert the hex number to the binary number, for example, FF (hex) = 11111111 (bin).

Description: Sets the current setpoint filter 1 as low pass (PT2) or general 2nd order filter.
Dependency: The current setpoint filter 1 is activated via p1656.0 and parameterized via p1657 ... p1661.
Note: For a general 2nd-order filter, by inserting the same natural frequency in both the numerator and in the
denominator, i.e. bandstop frequency, a bandstop filter is implemented. If the numerator damping of zero is
selected, the bandstop frequency is completely suppressed.
The denominator damping can be determined from the equation for the 3 dB bandwidth:
f_3dB bandwidth = 2 * D_denominator * f_bandstop frequency

Note:
For a negative speed limit, the hysteresis is effective below the limit value and for a positive speed limit above
the limit value.
If significant overshoot occurs in the maximum speed range (for example, due to load shedding), you are
advised to increase the dynamic response of the speed controller (if possible). If this is insufficient, the hysteresis p2162 can only be increased by more than 10% of the rated speed when the maximum speed of the
motor is sufficiently greater than the speed limit p1082.
The range of the parameter is different when connect with different motors.

Refer to p2604, p2609
Caution: If the reference cam is not adjusted so that at each search for reference the same zero mark for
synchronization is detected, then an "incorrect" axis reference point is obtained.
After the reference cam has been left, the search for the zero mark is activated with a time delay due to internal factors. This is the reason that the reference cam should be adjusted in this center between two zero
marks and the approach velocity should be adapted to the distance between two zero marks.
Note: The velocity override is not effective when traversing to the zero mark.

Bit 0: For significant differences between the motor and load moment of inertia, or for low dynamic performance of the controller, then the P controller becomes a PD controller in the position control loop. As a
consequence, the dynamic performance of the position controller is increased. This function should only
be set when the speed pre-control (bit 3 = 1) or the torque pre-control (bit 4 = 1) is active.
Bit 1: At low speeds, the controller gain factors are automatically reduced in order to avoid noise and oscillation at standstill. This setting is recommended for incremental encoders.
Bit 2: The estimated load moment of inertia is taken into account for the speed controller gain.
Bit 3: Activates the speed pre-control for the position controller.

Parameter description
Torque
Summit torque: It refers to the maximum torque required by a motor in operation, which is
generally less than 80% of the motors maximum torque. When the torque is a negative
value, regenerative resistors may be needed.
Moving torque and hold torque in standstill: It refers to the torque required by a motor in
long-term operation, which is generally less than 80% of the motors rated torque. When
the torque is a negative value, regenerative resistors may be needed.
Torque calculation methods of two major mechanism types:
W: Mass [kg]
Pb: Ball screw lead [m]
F: External force [N]

g: Gravitational acceleration 9.8 [m/s2]
W: Mass [kg]
Pd: Belt transmission lead [m]
F: External force [N]
: Mechanical efficiency
: Friction coefficient
g: Gravitational acceleration 9.8 [m/s2]
Effective torque: It refers to the continuous effective load torque converted into the
equivalent value on the servo motor shaft, which is generally less than 80% of the motors
rated torque.
Ta: Acceleration torque [Nm] ta: Acceleration time [s]

Tm: Moving torque [Nm]
tu: Constant motion time [s]

A.4 Motor selection
Speed
Maximum speed: It refers to the motor's maximum speed in operation, which is generally
lower than the rated speed. When a motor operates at the maximum speed, pay attention to
its torque and temperature rise.
Inertia and inertia ratio

Inertia refers to the force required to keep a certain physical state. Inertia ratio indicates
dynamic response performance of motors. The smaller the inertia ratio is, the better
response performance a motor has.

1. Ball screw weight

Bw = x x (Bd/2)2 x Bl = 19.85 kg
2. Load inertia
Jl = Jc + Jb = Jc + 1/8 x Bw x Bd2 + W x Bp2 / 42 = 5.61 x 10-3 kgm2
3. Preselection
If a 1000 W motor is selected, Jm (motor inertia) = 1.57 x 10-3 kgm2
Therefore, Jl / Jm (inertia ratio) = 3.57 < 5 times
4. Maximum rotational speed
Vmax (maximum travelling speed) = 2L / (ta + 2tu + td) = 5.89 m/s
Nmax (maximum rotational speed) = 60 x Vmax / Bp = 882 rpm < 2000 rpm (rated speed)
5. Effective torque
Tm (moving torque) = (gW + F) x Bp / 2B = 0.069 Nm
Ta (acceleration torque) = [(Jl + Jm) x 2 N / Ta] + Tm = 4.49 Nm
Td (deceleration torque) = [(Jl + Jm) x 2 N / Td] - Tm = 4.35 Nm
Therefore, Trms (effective torque) =(Ta2 x ta + Tm2 x tb + Td2 x td) / tc = 1.71 Nm < 4.78 Nm
(rated torque)
6. Final selection
According to the above calculated speed, torque, and inertia ratio, you are recommended
to select 1000 W motors, i.e. 1FL6062.
