Sinamics GH180 - The Perfect Harmony of Performance, Process and Technology

Every element of the Sinamics Perfect Harmony GH180 drive is engineered to maximize productivity and protect your process in a way that other drives can’t. Designed in compact air-cooled Configurations, the Sinamics Perfect Harmony drive delivers superior versatility, efficiency and process availability for the most demanding applications.

Sinamics Perfect Harmony - surprising technology and modern solutions

In less than a quarter of a second, the Sinamics Perfect Harmony GH180 drive can bypass multiple failed cells to maintain a balanced output voltage. With one cell in bypass, the drive still produces sufficient voltage to allow the process to continue uninterrupted, and the quality of the voltage and waveform remain virtually unchanged.

Sinamics Perfect Harmony drives are engineered to operate reliably in environments with ambient temperatures ranging from -40°C to +50°C. No other drive can tolerate such a broad range of extreme conditions. An optional PDC allows the drive to withstand even the harshest outdoor conditions, from high heat to extremely frosty environments.

Sinamics Perfect Harmony drives meet the most stringent IEEE 519-2014 requirements for voltage and current harmonic distortion. An integrated sinusoidal converter not only eliminates the need for harmonic filters, power factor correction capacitors or extra bus capacity, but also protects other online equipment from harmonic disturbances.

No drive offers a higher-quality waveform output than Sinamics Perfect Harmony. With 13 levels of non-harmonic output voltage, it accommodates any standard motor without requiring additional output or dv / dt filters (which can reduce efficiency and reliability) and it provides the lowest peak voltage to the motor windings to help extend motor life.

Sinamics Perfect Harmony is:

• minimized plant footprint, combined cooling system and plug-and-play drive system setup,
• the most trusted and proven drive on the market today with installations in every major process industry,
• capable of being configured with virtually any motor thanks to an almost sinusoidal output voltage,
• maximize your process availability thanks to its Advanced Cell Bypass feature for maintaining a balanced output voltage without torque or speed reductions.

Sinamics Perfect Harmony Case Study

One of the companies located in China engages in exploration and mining of gold. The goal the client wanted to achieve was changing the spoil transportation from expensive diesel trucks to an efficient and flexible driven belt system. The solution that was proposed is installation of a special integrated drive system for the conveyor belt system, that meets all the requirements for torque, speed and availability in an economic way. Applied 16 high voltage motors with gearboxes from 800 kW to 1800 kW and 16 medium voltage Sinamics Perfect Harmony GH180 converter systems. Thanks to this solution, the following was noted: time savings per transportation from more than 1 hour down to 12 minutes and OPEX savings of  1.5 USD per each and every cubic meter spoil. This is how the client summarized the implementation “For us Siemens is a trusted partner, especially when it comes to quality. The quality of the drive system is as expected: outstanding”.
