Appendix

A.1

Overview

Cables connecting the SINAMICS V90 servo drives and SIMOTICS S-1FL6 servo motors
are important components of a servo drive system. They are essential to the stable and
reliable operation of the system.
You are recommended to use Siemens cable assemblies and connectors. All Siemens cable
assemblies and connectors are tested and compliant with the CE standards and EMC
requirements. If you use non-Siemens cable assemblies, for example, cables you made by
yourself or cables from a third party, Siemens does not guarantee that the drive system
composed of V90 servo drive and 1FL6 servo motor meets the CE standards. If you use
non-Siemens cable assemblies in your drive system, and the drive system are required to be
operated in a CE-compliant environment, you need to reapply for certification for the drive
system.
Siemens allows you assemble your own cables in case that, for example, cables of the
special length is needed; therefore Siemens provides the instructions for assembling cables
and connectors. However, Siemens does not guarantee that cables you made meet the CE
standards and EMC requirements. When you made cables, you need to observe the
assembly procedures in this section. Besides, you need to prepare appropriate tools, raw
cables, and Siemens connectors according to the cable technical data and information in this
section.
Siemens does not guarantee the performance of the cables you made. For device (drives,
motors) damages due to use of the cables you made the warranty is not assumed.
Operation requirements
When you made cable yourself, observe the following requirements:
● The assembly must be performed by qualified personnel
● Use appropriate tools to solder or crimp cables and ensure the operation quality
Cable and connector requirements
● Use raw cables that with shields
Power cables and encoder cables must be shielded cables, and the shield coverage must
be conformed to the Siemens requirements.
● Use Siemens connectors only
For more information about the cable and connector requirements, see Sections "MOTION-
CONNECT 300 cables and connectors (Page 39)" and "Technical data - cables (Page 69)".
