Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent damage
to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert symbol, notices
referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are graded according to
the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will be
used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property
damage.
Quali󹪝ed Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel quali󹪝ed for the speci󹪝c
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions.
Quali󹪝ed personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and
avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

Introduction 1
1.1 The SINAMICS converter family
With the SINAMICS converter family, you can solve any individual drive task in the low-voltage,
medium-voltage and DC voltage range. From converters to motors and controllers, all Siemens
drive components are perfectly matched to each other and can be easily integrated into your
existing automation system. With SINAMICS you are prepared for digitization. You bene󹪝t from
highly e󹪟cient engineering with a variety of tools for the entire product development and
production process. And you also save space in the control cabinet – thanks to the integrated
safety technology.
You can 󹪝nd additional information about SINAMICS at the following address (http://
www.siemens.com/sinamics).

1.2 General information about SINAMICS documentation
SINAMICS documentation
The SINAMICS documentation is organized in the following categories:
• General documentation/catalogs
• User documentation
• Manufacturer/service documentation
Standard scope
The scope of the functionality described in this document can di󹪜er from that of the drive system
that is actually supplied.
• Other functions not described in this documentation might be able to be executed in the
drive system. However, no claim can be made regarding the availability of these functions
when the equipment is 󹪝rst supplied or in the event of service.
• The documentation can also contain descriptions of functions that are not available in a
particular product version of the drive system. Please refer to the ordering documentation
only for the functionality of the supplied drive system.
• Extensions or changes made by the machine manufacturer must be documented by the
machine manufacturer.
For reasons of clarity, this documentation does not contain all of the detailed information on all
of the product types, and cannot take into consideration every conceivable type of installation,
operation and service/maintenance.
Target group
This documentation is intended for machine manufacturers, commissioning engineers, and
service personnel who use the SINAMICS drive system.
Bene󹪝ts
This manual provides all of the information, procedures and operator actions required for the
particular usage phase.
Siemens MySupport/Documentation
You can 󹪝nd information on how to create your own individual documentation based on
Siemens content and adapt it for your own machine documentation at the following address

•North American market
SINAMICS S devices provided with one of the test symbols displayed ful󹪝ll the requirements
stipulated for the North American market as a component of drive applications.
You can 󹪝nd the relevant certi󹪝cates on the Internet pages of the certi󹪝er (http://
database.ul.com/cgi-bin/XYV/template/LISEXT/1FRAME/index.html).
•Speci󹪝cation for semiconductor process equipment voltage drop immunity
SINAMICS S devices meet the requirements of standard SEMI F47-0706.
•Australia and New Zealand (RCM formerly C-Tick)
SINAMICS S devices showing the test symbols ful󹪝ll the EMC requirements for Australia and
New Zealand.
•Quality systems
Siemens AG employs a quality management system that meets the requirements of ISO 9001
and ISO 14001.
Not relevant standards
China Compulsory Certi󹪝cation
SINAMICS S devices do not fall in the area of validity of the China Compulsory Certi󹪝cation (CCC).
EMC limit values in South Korea
The EMC limit values to be observed for Korea correspond to the limit values of the EMC product
standard for variable-speed electric drives EN 61800-3 of category C2 or the limit value class A,
Group 1 to KN11. By implementing appropriate additional measures, the limit values according
to category C2 or limit value class A, Group 1, are observed. Further, additional measures may
be required, such as using an additional radio interference suppression 󹪝lter (EMC 󹪝lter).
The measures for EMC-compliant design of the system are described in detail in this manual
respectively in the EMC Installation Guideline Con󹪝guration Manual.
The 󹪝nal statement regarding compliance with the standard is given by the respective label
attached to the individual unit.

1.7 Additional information
Ensuring reliable operation
The manual describes a desired state which, if maintained, ensures the required level of
operational reliability and compliance with EMC limit values.
Should there be any deviation from the requirements in the manual, appropriate actions (e.g.
measurements) must be taken to check/prove that the required level of operational reliability
and compliance with EMC limit values are ensured.
Spare parts
Spare parts are available on the Internet at the following address (https://
www.automation.siemens.com/sow?sap-language=EN).
Product maintenance
The components are subject to continuous further development within the scope of product
maintenance (improvements to robustness, discontinuations of components, etc).
These further developments are "spare parts-compatible" and do not change the article number.
In the scope of such spare parts-compatible further developments, connector/connection
positions are sometimes changed slightly. This does not cause any problems with proper use of
the components. Please take this fact into consideration in special installation situations (e.g.
allow su󹪟cient clearance for the cable length).
Use of third-party products
This document contains recommendations relating to third-party products. Siemens accepts the
fundamental suitability of these third-party products.
You can use equivalent products from other manufacturers.
Siemens does not accept any warranty for the properties of third-party products.
