Calculation example 3
A SINAMICS S150 converter in degree of protection IP20 is to be operated as a flywheel press drive on a 690 V
supply system at a maximum ambient temperature of 40 °C and at a maximum installation altitude of 1000 m. The
motor current I(t) (blue curve) and the motor frequency f(t) (red curve) over time are illustrated in diagram 1. The
flywheel is started up and accelerated to operating speed during phase T
flywheel is braked and accelerated again periodically. At the end of the period of steady-state press operation, the
flywheel is decelerated and finally stopped during phase T
frequency in vector control mode (vector-type drive object).

1. Select the converter:
According to diagram 1, the converter must be capable of supplying a short-time current I
requires a base load current I
I / 1.5 = 730 A / 1.5 = 487 A.
ShortTime
For this reason, a converter rated for V = 690 V and I
a base load current I of 514 A and thus a short-time current I
H
frequency for vector control mode is 1.25 kHz.
We shall now use a calculation to determine whether the selected converter is suitable to operate as the press drive
on the factory-set pulse frequency under the conditions specified above.
2. Analyze the steady-state, periodic press operation during phase T

According to diagram 1, the following apply during phase T
- Current ratio ΔI = I
- Load duty cycle duration T = T
With ΔI = 2.67 and T = 20 s, the derating factor is according to the derating characteristic 1 which is
applicable to the SINAMICS S150 converter with V = 690 V and I
