Tutorials Via the SINAMICS V20 Smart Access Module, you can wirelessly connect your mobile devices (smartphone, tablet, laptop) via Wi-Fi to the SINAMICS V20 converter series. This provides you with a powerful tool with numerous functions for wireless commissioning, diagnostics, and service.

Tutorial part 1: Installing and connecting the SINAMICS V20 Smart Access Module.

Tutorial part 2: Commissioning, diagnostics, and service with the SINAMICS V20 Smart Access Module.

Supplementary system components With the SINAMICS accessories, you increase the operation and control capabilities of your SINAMICS V20 even more.

SINAMICS V20 Smart Access Module

Commissioning, diagnostics, service

Web-based operator panel with wireless client connection

The optional SINAMICS V20 Smart Access Module can be simply plugged onto the converter. Handling of the SINAMICS V20 frequency converter becomes even easier and more user-friendly since it can be commissioned and operated via smartphone, tablet or laptop.

Functions

Commissioning using commissioning wizard
Setting and saving parameters
Setting motor to JOG mode
Monitoring of converter data
Quick diagnostics
Saving and restoring the settings

SINAMICS V20 Basic Operator Panel BOP

Local operation, monitoring, commissioning, diagnostics

Basic operator panel for direct connection to the converter

The menu-based operation of the BOP Basic Operator Panel facilitates local commissioning of the SINAMICS V20 converters.

SINAMICS BOP Interface

Connection between converter and BOP Basic Operator Panel
RJ45 interface is compatible with standard network cable

SINAMICS V20 I/O expansion module

Increase the number of inputs and outputs on the SINAMICS V20, 400 V converter with the I/O expansion module.

The module can simply be installed on the converter and provides two additional digital inputs and two relay outputs for it. The following inputs and outputs are thus available:

2 analog inputs
4 digital outputs
1 analog output

The module has connections on the front and back and can be used in conjunction with other accessories for SINAMICS V20, such as the V20 Smart Access Module, the BOP, and the BOP interface.

This option extends the functionality of SINAMICS V20 converters. It can, for example, be used to control several pumps, with one V20 being able to control a maximum of four pumps.

SINAMICS V20 Parameter Loader

Parameter settings can be stored and loaded again using an SD card or MMC card via the battery-operated parameter loader – even without power being supplied to the converter. This also enables the very latest firmware to be loaded.

SINAMICS V20 braking module

Shortens the deceleration ramp time
Suitable for 230 V 1 AC and 400 V 3 AC
Adjustable duty cycle from 5% to 100%
The frame sizes FSD and FSE already have an integrated braking unit
