huge installed base coupled with Siemens’ unparalleled
investments in R&D. As one of the largest companies in
the world, Siemens provides confidence and financial
stability in addition to exceptional technology. We offer
you expertise across the globe and a world of innovation.
Application
Siemens can provide a custom-engineered ROBICON Perfect

Harmony drive to maximize your process. We’re the only
company that offers drives from 150 to 60,000 kW. With
an installed base exceeding more than 11 million kW
worldwide, the ROBICON Perfect Harmony is a proven
workhorse that can perform brilliantly for you, too.
A bright future built on a firm foundation
Since its introduction in 1994, the ROBICON Perfect

Harmony drive has revolutionized power conversion
and continues to set industry standards for reliability
and innovation.
As power switching device technology advances and

increases output voltage capability, Siemens improves
each generation of the ROBICON Perfect Harmony in three
key areas: increased reliability and availability, increased
efficiency, and a smaller drive footprint.
Advances to our product line are made without “reinventing

the wheel” like other drive manufacturers. We have
maintained the ROBICON Perfect Harmony’s core topology
and continue to advance its capability, ensuring life-cycle
product support. By keeping the same topology, our
customers see a reduction in maintenance and spare parts
as well as an increase in quality and lower life-cycle costs.
We improve our products by actively soliciting the input
of our customers, and look forward to counting you
among them.

Closed-loop control The drive can be controlled by means of vector control algorithm without an encoder (standard) or with it (option).
Auto tuning Auto tuning is available to optimize the control performance of the drive
Automatic restart Automatic restart is a custom feature, used to purposely restart and restore the drive operation after a power failure
or power removal. When Automatic Restart function is specified by the customer, a qualified Siemens personnel must

Energy saver Energy saver control allows the reduction of motor losses, and improves overall efficiency, when the
demanded motor load is low. Depending on the motor load, the control will reduce motor flux.
As motor load increases, the control will increase motor flux.

Flying restart The flying restart function permits smooth connection of the drive to a rotating motor.
Diagnostics functions • Self-diagnosis of control hardware
• Non-volatile memory for reliable diagnosis when the power supply fails
• Monitoring of IGBTs with individual messages for each cell
• User-friendly local operator panel with plain text messages
• Fault log with first-in indication and time/date stamp
User configurable The user can select indication of speed, voltage, current, input/output power, and efficiency on the
digital meters operator panel.
Process control system The optional Process Tolerant Protection Strategy (ProToPS) is a groundbreaking process control system
available exclusively from Siemens. Instead of tripping the drive and automatically shutting down the
system due to a malfunction, ProToPS provides a hierarchical system of warnings. This control strategy allows
time to evaluate the situation and respond appropriately to avoid a system shutdown.

Thermal overload Based on the output signals of the drive, the thermal motor model is calculated. The motor thermal overload
protection protection algorithm prevents the motor from being exposed to excessive temperatures.

Drive Selection Criteria
The following tables help you to select the right converter 1.2 Determine the minimum continuous cell current rating:
type and give an overview of the corresponding motor data • If the drive is intended to operate within nominal
and order numbers. The tables are organized according to parameters, the maximum continuous motor current
the motor voltages. For the complete technical data of the will be the minimum continuous cell current rating.
listed converter types refer to Chapter 3. 2
1.3 Factor in any overload requirements:
In order to select the right ROBICON Perfect Harmony drive, • For the cell chosen on the previous paragraph,
please take into consideration the following steps: make sure it can handle the application overload
requirements by checking overload capabilities
Step 1 – Choosing the right cell size (see page 2/8).
• If the overload requirements exceed the capabilities
1.1 Determine the maximum continuous motor current, of the chosen cell then the next larger cell size must
temporary overload not included: be selected.
• Use the motor full load line current (FLA) if
available or use the following formula to calculate Step 2 – Choosing the right transformer
motor current I.
2.1 The ROBICON Perfect Harmony transformer rating is
I motor based on the motor shaft horsepower:
• If the drive is intended to operate within nominal
parameters and without added redundant cells, the
where,
maximum continuous motor horsepower (hp) will be
P motor __kW = shaft output (in kW)
used to rate the transformer using a straight formula:
V motor = motor voltage
1 transformer kVA per each motor hp
PF motor = motor power factor = (cos φ motor)
• The above rule is followed regardless of motor type.
h motor = motor efficiency
(keeping in mind: motor service factor if utilized and/or 2.2 The transformer is designed to support the temporary
overload requirements) overloads associated with the cells it feeds. If those
levels are exceeded by the application requirements,
• If the motor power factor (PFmotor) and efficiency please contact the factory or your local Siemens
at full load are not known then use the following sales representative.
default values:
Note:
– PF motor = 0.88

– motor = 0.96 Please contact the factory or your local Siemens sales
representative for derating calculations, if the drive is
• Factor in the motor service factor (SF) if the application intended to operate outside the nominal conditions
will make use of it under long term operation. You do so such as:
by multiplying the given/calculated current (from step • High ambient temperatures
1.1) by the motor SF. • High altitude installations
• Very low continuous operating frequencies at high current
• High frequency operation for high speed motors

Tools
SinaSave In addition to high-efficiency motors (IE2) SinaSave also
includes low-voltage and medium-voltage frequency drives,
which are predestined for pump and fan application.
Further, the motor side has been supplemented by a new

feature that takes into consideration the mechanical system.
High-torque motors have also been recently integrated.
User-friendly functions such as an automatic update function,
an up-to-date currency table and improved functions (e.g.
sending pdfs by e-mail) round-off the functionality of this
energy-saving tool.
Additional information
Additional information on services relating to energy-saving
topics is provided on the Internet:
www.siemens.com/sinasave

Based on characteristic plant values, SinaSave calculates the
possible cost-saving potential for the specific application. A Accessories
payback time is obtained from the monthly overall saving of
the application and the purchase and installation costs for the Cell lifter

In comparison to IE1 or EPAct motors, individually selected
and known motors or in comparison to known motors when
investigating a complete plant.
For drive operation, SinaSave takes into account all of the

necessary plant or system-specific parameters as well as the
values required for the process; these include, for example,
the flow rate for pumps, the specific density of the medium
being transported and the efficiency of the fluid flow
machines of the complete plant. Additional basic data that
the program requires includes the number of working days
and work shifts as well as the pumping profile over a day
and a year, which are decisive for the energy-saving impact.
Using the plant-specific data, the program selects the

optimum drive system, calculates the price of a suitable
frequency drive and determines the energy requirements
of the variable-speed drive system when compared to all of
the alternative concepts that could be possibly considered.

Once the input voltage falls below 65 %, the drive reduces

output power to a slightly negative value and maintains
synchronism with the motor for a period greater than five
cycles. Once input voltage is restored, the drive begins by
magnetizing the motor and then continues with torque
production. There is no delay in drive restart.
If input voltage is not restored after five cycles the drive

maintains synchronism with the motor as long as the power
cells can operate without input power or as long as there is

power cell stops or if motor voltage decays significantly, the
drive trips on a loss of input medium-voltage.
