Sinamics S120 Booksize Motor Modules: new sizes (45A/60A) and new devices (24A) with reduced space requirement
New Booksize Motor Modules for Sinamics S120 series
Version with double (C-type) and triple (D-type) overload factor
24A devices close portfolio gap between 18A and 30A
New variants offer compact design and higher maximum current
The Booksize Motor Module portfolio has been further developed to include compatible new C and D type Sinamics S120 Booksize Motor Modules. Siemens has added a number of new devices to the existing 3A-30A range. The 24A, 45A and 60A Motor Modules are now available with double overload factor (Continuous C-type), and the 24A modules are additionally available with triple overload factor (Discontinuous D-type). With a 33 percent narrower fit than the existing variants, the new 45A und 60A devices are extremely compact, enabling significant space savings in the control cabinet. The maximum current in the 45A devices has also been increased from 85A to 90A, while the 60A devices now come with a 120A maximum current instead of the previous 113A.A completely new addition to the series are the 24A devices, which will be available as either a C or D type. This closes the gap in the portfolio between 18A and 30A.
