Siemens Drive Technologies Division is launching a
new Control Unit variant with positioning capability
within the Sinamics G120 drive system on the mar-
ket – the new CU250S-2. It adds functional support
of vector control with encoder evaluation to the
existing Control Units. Comprehensive safety func-
tions are already integrated in the standard unit.
The new CU250S-2 Control Unit rounds off the
Sinamics G120 product portfolio upward and superse-
des the CU240S Control Unit with encoder interface.
Single-axis applications with induction motors, basic
positioning tasks and applications requiring many I/Os
are now supported. Moreover, all variants of the new
Control Unit also include by default the safety functions
STO („Safe Torque Off“), SBC („Safe Brake Control“),
and SS1 („Safe Stop 1“). In this way, applications with
basic safety requirements can already effortlessly be
implemented with the standard scope of supply. Exten-
ded safety functions can be activated via an optional
software license. In line with the modular concept of
the Sinamics G120 portfolio, the new Control Units
can also be freely combined with all relevant Power
Modules and support all applications so far addressed
by the Sinamics G120, both with and without encoder
evaluation. These include pump, fan, and compres-
sor applications, as well as mill, mixer, and extruder
applications in industries such as automotive, textile,
printing, chemicals, and material handling.
