Siemens Xcelerator: New
Sinamics G220 high-performance frequency converter for greater efficiency, easier
engineering and faster comissioning
Sinamics G220 are the first Sinamics drives to join the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio
Integrated Clean Power technology reduces harmonics by up to 97 percent
Digital twin in Startdrive (TIA) enables testing and optimization of behavior before hardware is available
IIoT module for easy integration into edge and cloud applications
With Sinamics G220,
Siemens is launching a new high-performance frequency converter to join the
Sinamics family in the run-up to Hannover Messe 2023. The innovative frequency
converters are equipped with so-called clean power technology. This reduces
harmonics by up to 97 percent without the need for line harmonic chokes or DC
link chokes.

With Sinamics G220,
Siemens is launching a new high-performance frequency converter to join the
Sinamics family in the run-up to Hannover Messe 2023. The innovative frequency
converters are equipped with so-called clean power technology. This reduces
harmonics by up to 97 percent without the need for line harmonic chokes or DC
link chokes.
The new Sinamics G220 frequency converters are the first Sinamics drives to be part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio.
As a result, the Sinamics G220 frequency converters are significantly more efficient in terms of space utilization and operation and make engineering much easier.The new frequency converters
are also the first Sinamics drives to be part of the Siemens Xcelerator
portfolio, the Siemens-wide business platform for digital transformation. This
is because Sinamics G220 frequency converters are also an integral part of the
TIA portal and have a digital twin in Startdrive, the commissioning tool for
drives. This allows the behavior of the drive to be tested and optimized before
the hardware is available. With the integrated web server, commissioning times
can also be significantly reduced. The new converters are also equipped with an
IIoT module. This means that Sinamics G220 frequency converters can be easily
integrated into cloud and edge applications, which increases the transparency
of their applications. Availabilities can thus be optimized, and downtimes avoided. In the area of cybersecurity, the Sinamics G220 is equipped with Security Integrated as standard, providing secure communication, integrity and authenticity checks to protect against tampered firmware, and User Management & Access Control.
Sinamics G220 converters come with a range of
hardware options and software functions, allowing them to be flexibly adapted
to the respective application cases required. For example, the Sinamics G220 is
also available in IP55 and there are special coatings for harsh environments.
Thanks to the high-quality components and hardware design, the drive is
designed for a long service life. When it comes to Safety Integrated, the new
frequency converters reach the next level by meeting SIL 3 requirements.
Sinamics G220 are suitable for all industries, but especially for the food
& beverage, pharmaceutical, chemical, oil & gas, and marine industries.
