Security Information 11.1 Security information

Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.

In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept.

Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems, machines and networks. Such systems, machines and components should only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only when appropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place.

For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please visit https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.

Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends that product updates are applied as soon as they are available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.

To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security RSS Feed under https://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity.

Safety notes 22.1 General Safety Information

Proper Use SINAMICS Perfect Harmony™ GH180 medium voltage drives must always be installed in closed electrical operating areas. The drive is connected to the industrial network via a circuit-breaker or contactor that is electrically connected to the VFD control to enable the drive protection features.

The specific transport conditions must be observed when the equipment is transported. The equipment shall be assembled/installed and the separate cabinet units connected properly by cable and/or busbar in accordance with the assembly/installation instructions. The relevant instructions regarding correct storage, EMC-compliant installation, cabling, shielding and grounding and an adequate auxiliary power supply must be strictly observed. Fault-free operation is also dependent on careful operation and maintenance.

The power sections are designed for variable-speed drives use with synchronous and asynchronous motors. Operating modes, overload conditions, load cycles, and ambient conditions different to those described in this document are allowed only by special arrangement with the manufacturer.

Commissioning should only be carried out by trained service personnel in accordance with the commissioning instructions.

System components such as circuit-breaker, transformer, cables, cooling unit, motor, speed sensors, etc., must be matched to VFD operation. System configuration may only be carried out by an experienced system integrator.

Page 14: Advanced Motor Protection for Variable Speed Operation - Siemens · Proper use of Siemens products. Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications

2.2 Observing the Five Safety RulesThere are five safety rules that must always be observed to assure not only personal safety, but to prevent material damage as well. Always obey safety-related labels located on the product itself and always read and understand each safety precaution prior to operating or working on the drive.

The five safety rules:

1. Disconnect the power applied to the system.

2. Protect against reapplication of power.

3. Make sure that the equipment is de-energized.

4. Apply grounding (earthing) means.

5. Cover or enclose adjacent components to secure all forms of hazardous energy.

DANGER

Danger Due to High Voltages

High voltages cause death or serious injury if the safety instructions are not observed or if the equipment is handled incorrectly.

Potentially fatal voltages occur when this equipment is in operation which can remain present even after the VFD is switched off.

Ensure that only qualified and trained personnel carry out work on the equipment.

Follow the five safety rules during each stage of the work.

Safety notes2.2 Observing the Five Safety Rules

Page 15: Advanced Motor Protection for Variable Speed Operation - Siemens · Proper use of Siemens products. Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications

2.3 Safety Information and Warnings

DANGER

Hazardous Voltage! ● Always follow the proper lock-out/tag-out procedures before beginning any maintenance

or troubleshooting work on the VFD. ● Always follow standard safety precautions and local codes during installation of external

wiring. The installation must follow wiring practices and insulation systems as specified in IEC 61800-5-1.

● Hazardous voltages may still exist within the VFD cabinets even when the disconnect switch is open (off) and the supply power is shut off.

● Only qualified individuals should install, operate, troubleshoot, and maintain this VFD. A qualified individual is "a person, who is familiar with the construction and operation of the equipment and the hazards involved."

● Always work with one hand, wear electrical safety gloves, wear insulated electrical hazard rated safety shoes, and safety goggles. Also, always work with another person present.

● Always use extreme caution when handling or measuring components that are inside the enclosure. Be careful to prevent meter leads from shorting together or from touching other terminals.

● Use only instrumentation (e.g., meters, oscilloscopes, etc.) intended for high voltage measurements (that is, isolation is provided inside the instrument, not provided by isolating the chassis ground of the instrument).

● Never assume that switching off the input disconnector will remove all voltage from internal components. Voltage is still present on the terminals of the input disconnector. Also, there may be voltages present that are applied from other external sources.

● Never touch anything within the VFD cabinets until verifying that it is neither thermally hot nor electrically alive.

● Never remove safety shields (marked with a HIGH VOLTAGE sign) or attempt to measure points beneath the shields.

● Never operate the VFD with cabinet doors open. The only exception is the control cabinet.● Never connect any grounded (i.e., non-isolated) meters or oscilloscopes to the system.● Never connect or disconnect any meters, wiring, or printed circuit boards while the VFD is

energized.● Never defeat the instrument’s grounding.● When a system is configured with VFD bypass switchgear (e.g. contactors between line

and motor, and VFD and motor), these switches should be interlocked so that the line voltage is never applied to the VFD output if the medium voltage input is removed from the VFD.

● When a system is configured with VFD pre-charge, medium voltage is present on the primary side of the input transformer and upstream device even though the MV contactor is not closed.

Page 16: Advanced Motor Protection for Variable Speed Operation - Siemens · Proper use of Siemens products. Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications

WARNING

Potential Arc Hazard● Arcing can result in damage to property, serious injury and even death. ● The equipment has not been tested and rated for arc flash protection.● Avoiding arc hazard risks is dependent upon proper installation and maintenance.● Incorrectly applied equipment, incorrectly selected, connected or unconnected cables, or

the presence of foreign materials can cause arcing in the equipment.● Follow all applicable precautionary rules and guidelines as used in working with medium

voltage equipment.● The equipment may be used only:

– for the applications defined as suitable in the technical description.– in combination with equipment and components supplied by other manufacturers which

have been approved and recommended by Siemens.● Always follow the facility / installation site rules / guidelines for Personal Protectiive

Equipment (PPE) based on the Arc Flash study of that facility.

Additional safety precautions and warnings appear throughout this manual. These important messages should be followed to reduce the risk of personal injury or equipment damage.

WARNING

Obey Rules to Avoid Risk of Death● Always comply with local codes and requirements if disposal of failed components is

necessary.● Always ensure the use of an even and flat truck bed to transport the VFD system. Before

unloading, be sure that the concrete pad is level for storage and permanent positioning.● Always confirm proper tonnage ratings of cranes, cables, and hooks when lifting the VFD

system. Dropping the cabinet or lowering it too quickly could damage the unit.● Never disconnect control power while medium voltage is energized. This could cause

severe system overheating and/or damage.● Never store flammable material in, on, or near the drive enclosure. This includes

equipment drawings and manuals.● Never use fork trucks to lift cabinets that are not equipped with lifting tubes. Be sure that

the fork truck tines fit the lifting tubes properly and are the appropriate length.

Introduction 33.1 Background

Unlike other motor protection management relays, the SINAMICS Advanced Motor Protection (AMP) is fully integrated into the drive itself, requiring no installation or mounting. Protection variables and RTD data used by the AMP are tested to ensure that the AMP is functioning properly and is ready for parameter setting before leaving the factory. To assure motor and process protection, it is necessary to define protection settings in such a way as to prevent motor and process damage, which can occur in various manners and conditions.

Today industrial equipment is designed to be operated for 20 years or longer. Medium voltage motors are exposed to environmental and mechanical stresses that, over time, could lead to motor degradation and malfunction. The monitoring and protection of such medium voltage motors is an essential element in the overall industrial process protection. These protection schemes are needed to avoid financial losses caused by unexpected process downtown.

Medium voltage motors are operated either directly on line (DOL) or through variable frequency drives (VFDs). Thus, they require protection from the following conditions:

● input line events

● high temperatures, insulation and bearing failures

● conditions created by a change in a load

– overload

– underload

– imbalance

– jamming

The advanced motor protection algorithms described in this manual can be used to protect systems from such events. In addition, some features can also be configured to detect and protect against undesirable process conditions.

The following chapters provide an overview of the function itself, followed by the function as implemented in the GH180 drive.

● Device 12 - Variable pickup overspeed

● Device 14 - Fixed pickup underspeed

● Device 14 - Variable pickup underspeed

● Device 37 - Fixed pickup undercurrent

● Device 37 - Variable pickup undercurrent

● Device 37P - Fixed pickup underpower

● Device 39 - Mechanical condition monitor - Fixed pickup torque pulsation

● Device 46_2 - Phase-balance current - Fixed pickup negative sequence overcurrent

● Device 49RTD - Machine thermal overload - Fixed pickup RTD protection

● Device 50 - Fixed pickup instantaneous overcurrent

● Device 51 - Fixed pickup inverse time overcurrent

● Device 55 - Fixed pickup maximum power factor

● Device 55 - Fixed pickup minimum power factor

● Device 59G - Fixed pickup definite minimum time zero sequence overvoltage

● Device 81 - Fixed pickup overfrequency

● Device 81 - Variable pickup overfrequency

● Device 81 - Fixed pickup underfrequency

● Device 81 - Fixed pickup high frequency rate of change

The standard block compares a protection variable to a reference which is referred to in the block diagram as the pickup level. To illustrate, for the fixed underspeed protection, the reference would be motor speed, and the pickup level would be the Fixed Underspeed Pickup Level (7218).

The comparator can be configured to make the block an "over" function (a trip or alarm can be generated when the protection variable is higher than the pickup level) or an "under" function (a trip or alarm can be generated when the protection variable is lower than the pickup level). Adjustable low pass filtering is accomplished on both the protection variable and the pickup level prior to the variables being applied to the greater than or less than comparator function.

A true state (logic one) at the output of the comparator indicates that a pickup is occurring and that a trip or alarm may result. The pickup condition modifies the threshold of the comparator with a programmable amount of hysteresis to avoid excessive toggling due to noise in the reference or protection variable. The amount of hysteresis is determined as a percentage of the pickup level by the adjustable parameter referred to as the dropout level.

The block uses two counters to control the generation of an alarm or trip output. The output can be used as a trip signal or as an alarm signal where the alarm can be set to a latched mode or an unlatched mode. The two counters are the pickup time delay counter and the dropout time delay counter. The pickup time delay counter is used to delay the time between a pickup and the generation of a trip or alarm signal. The pickup time delay is a programmable parameter that can be adjusted over a range that depends on the particular protection variable being used.The

dropout time delay counter is used to delay the reset of the pickup timer if the protection variable changes such as to cause the pickup signal to return to a false (logic zero) condition.

In the simplest case of operation, the protection variable exceeds the pickup level and remains there. The pickup time delay counter would start counting until the value of the counter exceeds the "pickup time delay" and a trip or alarm would be generated. The dropout time delay counter has no involvement in this simplest type of operation. This case is shown in the top line of figure Various Pickup and Dropout Time Delay Counter Various Examples of Operation for the cases of latched and unlatched operation.

Figure 4-2 Various Pickup and Dropout Time Delay Counter Examples of Operation

The dropout time delay counter is used to reset the pickup time delay counter when the pickup condition disappears. The second line of Various Pickup and Dropout Time Delay Counter Examples of Operation shows the case where the pickup signal goes to zero for a time greater than the value of the dropout time delay. The dropout time delay is a programmable parameter that is shown in figure Generalized Protection Function Block Diagram. The dropout time delay counter counts up once the pickup signal becomes false and resets the pickup time delay counter.

control) + Reset (ext)where:/ indicates a logical inversion (not)+ indicates a logical OR* indicates a logical AND

Fixed Pickup Protections Fixed pickup protection functions allow a single pickup level to be programmed that remains a constant over the entire operating speed range of the drive.

Example: For fixed pickup overspeed protection, when the speed of the machine exceeds the programmed pickup level then the logic of the standard block diagram starts the pickup timer. If the pickup condition persists for longer than the programmed time then a trip or alarm will occur.

The pickup level is independent of the speed setting (speed demand) of the drive.

Demand Dependency for Variable Pickup Protections Variable pickup protection functions allow a pickup level to be programmed as a function of the commanded speed of the drive (speed demand). The pickup levels are entered as a set of 20 points starting from 0% demand to 190% demand setting. Linear interpolation is used between the points.

Example: If a 10% overspeed pickup is set at 0% demand and a 20% overspeed pickup is set at 10% demand, the effective pickup level at 5% demand will be 15%. The pickup level will remain constant at the 190% demand setting for demand settings in excess of 190%. If the 190% demand setting pickup level is set to 210%, the pickup level at 200% demand will also be 210%. See Figure Variable Pickup Undercurrent.To further illustrate, assume that the variable pickup undercurrent function is being used; and the pickup levels are set to the values shown in column 2 of Table "Pickup Level Settings for Level Settings for Variable Undercurrent Protection Example".

Thermal OverloadThe thermal overload protection functions use a thermodynamic model of the machine to predict the total amount of thermal capacity (basically margin to maximum temperature) that has been used as the machine temperature increases. A value of 100% thermal capacity used would imply that the machine is at the maximum allowable temperature. The thermal model uses a k-factor to adjust the value of current at which the machine will eventually reach full rated

temperature at maximum rated ambient temperature. There are also heating, cooling, and stopped thermal time constants that dynamically adjust the model to match how quickly the machine will heat up and cool down either when moving or when stopped.

A fixed thermal overload protection function and a variable thermal overload function are provided. The fixed thermal overload function allows the use of a fixed value (does not vary with the drive speed demand setting) of k-factor and the time constants. The variable thermal overload function allows the k-factor, the heating time constant, and the cooling time constant to be made a function of the speed demand setting. The parameters are programmed over a range of speed demand setting from 0 to 190% in the same way as the pickup parameters are set for the variable pickup level protection functions. The k-factor would be adjusted as a function of speed to account for changes in the machine losses as the electrical frequency changes. The time constants would be adjusted to account for changes in the heat transfer characteristics of the machine as the speed changes.

Per-unit Values

All the AMP functions use per-unit values to set pickup and dropout levels as well as speed-based enables. In a per-unit system, engineering quantities (such as voltages or currents) are normalized to their rated or maximum values. The value of the resultant per-unit values is typically zero to one although the values can be and are often expressed in percentages. The AMP system uses percentage values to set per-unit quantities. Voltage, current, frequency,

power, torque, and speed are per-unit quantities in the AMP. Time, temperature, and power factor are not handled as per-unit quantities and are expressed in units of seconds and degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, power factor does not have any associated units. For example, consider a 1 MW machine with a rated voltage of 4160 V, and a full load current of 162A with a rated speed of 1785 RPM that is designed to operate with 60 Hz power. This is a four-pole machine, so the synchronous speed of the machine is 1800 RPM. The relationship between the engineering units and per-unit quantities are shown in the table titled, "Per-unit Engineering Unit Quantities".

4.3 Protection Function Enable TypesThere are four types of enables used to control startup and disabling of the protection functions. They are: Startup Time, Minimum Speed Enable, Minimum Speed Reset, and Fixed Torque Pulsation Minimum Speed Enable.

The following paragraphs describe the operation of the various enables.

1. Startup Time is used to delay the startup of the protection function from the time that the run command is issued. Following startup, the protection function will remain disabled until the startup time has elapsed. Once the Startup Time has been met, the protection function will be enabled unless another startup function continues to disable the protection function. The startup time delay will be repeated if the drive is stopped and then started again.

2. Minimum Speed Enable is used to delay the startup of the protection function until the machine achieves a minimum speed. Once the speed of the machine exceeds the Minimum Speed Enable setting, the function is enabled and will remain enabled until the drive is stopped (stop command, trip, etc.) unless another startup function continues to disable the protection function (such as Startup Time). The function will remain enabled even if the speed is reduced below the Minimum Speed Enable setting once that setting has been exceeded for the first time. The Minimum Speed Enable is reset when the drive is stopped, and the minimum speed will have to be reached again if the drive is stopped and then started again.

3. Minimum Speed Reset is used to disable a protection function when the speed demand is less than a specified value. When the demand setting is below the Minimum Speed Reset setting, the protection function is reset. Any startup time delay or minimum speed enable will be reset and the conditions of those enables will have to be met before the protection function will be enabled again.

4. Fixed Torque Pulsation Minimum Speed Enable is a unique enable applicable only to the excessive torque pulsation protection function. The setting resets the protection when the motor speed is below the setting. This setting should be used to avoid trips due to conditions where low motor speed is likely to result in false trips due to the finite sampling window of the torque pulsation function.

6.2 Device 12 - Fixed Pickup OverspeedOverviewFixed pickup overspeed is used to protect the motor and connected load against excessive speed. The fixed pickup overspeed function provides a single speed point setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when that speed is exceeded. The function can be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

6.4 Device 14 - Fixed Pickup UnderspeedOverviewFixed pickup underspeed is used to protect the motor and connected load against operation at speeds below the desired speed. The fixed pickup underspeed function provides a single underspeed point setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when that speed falls below that value. The function offers a minimum speed enable that only allows activation of this function after the programmable minimum speed has been reached. Once the minimum speed has been reached, the function remains enabled regardless of speed until the drive stops. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

NoteSetting Fixed Pickup and Variable Pickup Underspeed Protection Parameters

When setting Fixed Pickup and Variable Pickup Underspeed Protection Parameters, ensure that settings are consistent with drive capabilities and with the settings of the accelerationramp settings, Refer to the relevant NXGpro Control Manual (A5E33474566) provided with your drive.

6.5 Device 14 - Variable Pickup UnderspeedOverviewVariable pickup underspeed is used to protect the motor and connected load against operation at lower speeds than desired or to detect conditions under which the motor speed has fallen below the desired setpoint due to problems with excessive load torque or torque production difficulties in the machine. The variable pickup underspeed function provides a curve of speed points as a function of the commanded motor speed. A trip or alarm condition occurs when that speed falls below the curve at a given speed setting. The function offers a minimum speed enable that only allows activation of this function after the programmable minimum speed has been reached. Once the minimum speed has been reached, the function remains enabled regardless of speed until the drive stops or the demand is set to a value below the minimum speed reset. The minimum speed reset is used to define a range of demand settings below which the function will remain in a reset condition. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

NoteSetting Fixed Pickup and Variable Pickup Underspeed Protection Parameters

6.6 Device 37 - Fixed Pickup UndercurrentOverviewFixed pickup undercurrent is used to protect the motor against operation with RMS phase currents that are below the desired level. The fixed pickup undercurrent function provides an RMS phase current setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the current falls below that value. The function can be programmed to produce a trip or an alarm when any one, any two, or all three of the phase currents (Phase A, Phase B, Phase C RMS currents) is below the set point. The function offers a minimum speed enable that only allows activation of this function after the programmable minimum speed has been reached. Once the minimum speed has been reached, the function remains enabled regardless of speed until the drive stops or the demand is set to a value below the minimum speed reset. The minimum speed reset is used to define a range of demand settings below which the function will remain in a reset condition. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

6.7 Device 37 - Variable Pickup UndercurrentOverviewVariable pickup undercurrent is used to protect the load / system operation with RMS phase currents that are below the desired level where sensitivity to the speed demand setting is important. The variable pickup undercurrent function provides a curve of undercurrent set points as a function of the commanded motor speed. A trip or alarm condition occurs when the current falls below the curve at a given speed setting. The function can be programmed to produce a trip or an alarm when any one, any two, or all three of the phase currents is below the set point. The function offers a minimum speed enable that only allows activation of this function after the programmable minimum speed has been reached. Once the minimum speed has been reached, the function remains enabled regardless of speed until the drive stops or the demand is set to a value below the minimum speed reset. The minimum speed reset is used to define a range of demand settings below which the function will remain in a reset condition. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

DescriptionTorque producing current and motor flux associated with motor operation allows for the calculation of motor torque as the product of torque producing current (iqs) and the machine magnetic flux (λs). The torque producing current is the component of machine current that is in phase with the machine voltage. A given machine has a maximum rated value of torque producing current that combines with any flux producing current to form the overall rated stator

current. The torque producing current (iqs) is scaled using a per unit system with one per unit iqs equal to the rated value of iqs for the particular machine being used. Similarly, the rated magnetic flux (stator flux) is scaled such that one per unit flux has been achieved when the machine exhibits rated voltage at rated speed.

The per-unit torque is then given by:

perunit qs sT i λ= ×

Figure 6-8 Per Unit Torque

The torque should be steady and continuous but may contain small amounts of amplitude variation over time. Typically, these variations occur over fixed amounts of time and tend to repeat over those fixed amounts of time.

The torque can be resolved into two components, one component being the torque average value and the other being small amplitude variation (or cyclical component) that can be added together to obtain the total torque. Torque pulsation protection focuses on the time duration varying part, specifically the RMS value of the pulsating part of the torque.

The protection calculates RMS torque pulsation by sampling and recording the torque over a specific length time window. The window of time is selectable and should be chosen to be long enough to contain several cycles of torque variation. The window will contain N samples of torque (T(n)). The mean of the dataset is first calculated:

6.11 Device 46_2 - Phase-Balance Current - Fixed Pickup Negative Sequence Overcurrent Delay

OverviewFixed pickup negative sequence overcurrent is used to protect the motor and connected load against operation under conditions of high negative sequence current or phase current imbalance. The fixed pickup negative sequence overcurrent function provides a single negative sequence overcurrent setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the negative sequence current rises above that value. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

6.14 Device 49T - Machine Thermal Model - Fixed Parameter Thermal Overload

OverviewThe fixed parameter thermal overload function uses a first order differential equation to track the amount of thermal capacity used in the machine as described in IEC 60255-149. Thermal capacity is used up as the machine temperatures approach maximum rated or allowable conditions. An equivalent heating current is calculated that takes into account the RMS phase currents of the machine as well as the amount of negative sequence current. The heat input to the machine is determined based on the square of the equivalent heating current divided by an adjustable rated current. The thermal capacity is adjusted based on thermal time constants for heating, cooling, or stopped conditions in the machine in accordance with a first order differential equation that accounts for heat inputs and heat outputs in the machine. The fixed parameter function uses single values of rated current, heating time constant, and cooling time constant. An adjustable threshold can be set to limit the maximum amount of thermal capacity used. The function reports a trip or alarm condition or can block starting of the motor when the thermal capacity used exceeds the programmed value. The thermal model of the machine can be biased by RTD measurements of ambient temperature and/or stator temperature. Ambient RTD readings are used to compensate for the effects of an ambient temperature other than rated, stator RTD readings are used to set minimum thermal capacity used values based on the stator temperature.

Discussion of Fixed Parameter Thermal Overload Protection ModelThe thermal overload function uses a differential equation model to predict the amount of thermal capacity used. The equation calculates H(t), an H(t) value of 1.0 indicates that 100% of the thermal capacity of the machine has been used and basically that the machine is at the maximum allowable temperature.

The differential equation is given by:

( )( )

( )

2

eq

a

i t tH t F H t t

k t t

τ

τ τ

∆= + − ∆

+ ∆ + ∆

One of the inputs to the equation is ieq(t) is the equivalent heating current expressed in per unit. One per unit current in this context is equal to the rated current of the machine being protected. Both H(t) and ieq(t) are functions of time while the other variables in the equation are fixed (although adjustable) parameters.

The equivalent heating current is a function of the RMS value of the stator current and the negative sequence stator current. ieq(t) is given by:

i i qieq avg qi

= +2 2

Where:

ii i i

avgarms brms crms

=+ +

3

The equivalent current is a function of the average RMS stator current plus a term related to the negative sequence current i2. The q factor weights the negative sequence current in the calculation of the equivalent heating current ieq. The q factor should be adjusted to account for the additional heating effects of negative sequence current and in many cases of induction machines should be chosen to be equal to the ratio of negative sequence rotor resistance to the positive sequence rotor resistance.

Page 62: Advanced Motor Protection for Variable Speed Operation - Siemens · Proper use of Siemens products. Note the following: WARNING Siemens products may only be used for the applications

Another parameter of the equation is the k-Factor which effectively scales the current, irated. The k factor is indicative of the amount of additional thermal capacity in the machine beyond operation at rated current in the rated ambient temperature environment. A k factor of greater than one implies that additional thermal capacity exists under rated operating conditions. Tau (τ) is the time constant which determines how fast changes in equivalent stator current affect the amount of thermal capacity used. The time constant is selected by the model depending on rather the machine is cooling, heating, or stopped. Delta t (Δt) is the sampling interval used to calculate the differential (difference) equation. The sampling time is set by the drive configuration and is on the order of a few milliseconds. The Fa term is used to account for operation in ambient temperatures other than the maximum rated ambient temperature. The Fa term is set equal to one unless RTD sensors are used to provide a measured ambient temperature. A more detailed discussion of the effect of Fa will be given later when the effects of RTD usage are presented. The time constant determines how quickly changes in effective current result in changes in the amount of thermal capacity used. A steady equivalent current will eventually drive the thermal capacity used to a steady state value.

The steady state value of H(t) is given by:

Hi

kF

steady state

eq

a− =

2

In the case where ambient temperature RTD(s) are not being used then the steady state equation becomes:

Hi

ksteady state

eq

− =

2

It can be seen that when the per unit (PU) equivalent stator current is equal to the k-Factor, then the thermal capacity used will eventually reach 100%. Note that H is scaled such that an H value of 1 corresponds to 100%.

The time constants determine how fast the thermal capacity changes in response to a change in the equivalent current ieq. There are three time constants that apply during different operating modes of the machine. The stopped time constant is used when the machine is stopped. The heating and cooling time constants are used when the machine is running. The heating time constant is used when the thermal capacity used is increasing and the cooling time constant is used when the thermal capacity used is falling.

Use of RTD(s) in the Thermal Overload Protection ModelRTDs that affect the thermal model are assigned to group names of either stator or ambient in the parameter menus for the particular RTD. The hottest RTD in each group is selected and the ambient or stator temperature is determined by that reading. The usage of ambient and/or stator temperature RTD readings in the thermal overload protection model is controlled by the model parameters named "Use Ambient RTDs" or "Use Stator RTDs". Either or both may be selected for use in the thermal model.

The ambient RTD group temperature affects the value of Fa as defined in the equation for Fa shown below.

Tlimit is the maximum ambient temperature in which the machine is rated to operate. Ta is the actual value of ambient temperature as measured by the RTD(s) assigned to the "ambient" group. Ta is set equal to Tlimit in the case where no ambient temperature measurement is provided making the value of Fa equal to one. Tmax is the maximum operating temperature of the stator winding. As equation 4 shows, the value of Fa basically scales the steady state value of the amount of thermal capacity used. A high value of ambient temperature will increase the amount of steady state thermal capacity used while a low value of ambient temperature will decrease it. An ambient temperature in excess of Tmax will force the thermal capacity used to the saturation value of 500%.

The stator group temperature is used to determine a minimum value of thermal capacity used that is based on the stator temperature reading. The value of thermal capacity used that is predicted by the model is overridden when the value of thermal capacity used as determined by the stator RTD(s) is higher when the "use stator RTDs" parameter is selected such as to use the stator temperature measurement. The thermal capacity used based on the temperature reported by the stator RTD group is shown in "Thermal Capacity used as determined by Stator Temperature".

Figure 6-13 Thermal Capacity used as determined by Stator Temperature

The variables Tlimit and Tmax are the maximum rated ambient temperature and the maximum allowable insulation temperature as earlier defined. The variable Tmaxoper is the operating temperature of the stator at full rated load and at an ambient temperature of Tlimit. The amount of thermal capacity used when the stator temperature is at Tmaxoper is determined based on the hot to cold stall ratio (HCSR) in accordance with the equation below:

H T T HCSRstator oper

=( ) = −( )max1

Note that H is scaled such that a value of H=1 corresponds to 100% thermal capacity used. The hot to cold stall ratio is defined as the ratio of the rated maximum stall time of a machine which has been operating at full rated load in a maximum rated ambient temperature environment for a time period long enough to reach thermal equilibrium to the maximum to the rated maximum stall time of a machine which has stabilized in the same ambient temperature environment without operating.

The value of HCSR will presumably be less than or equal to one since the allowable stall time with a hot stator winding should be less than the allowable stall time with a cold stator winding. For example, if the allowable stall time of a machine is 5 seconds with a cold stator, and 4 seconds with a hot stator, then the HCSR will be equal to 0.8 and the amount of thermal capacity used when the stator RTDs report a temperature equal to Tmaxoper will be 20%. When the stator RTD(s) are enabled, the thermal overload function will report the model predicted value if that value is greater than 20% or the value of 20% obtained from the stator temperature measurement.

The k-Factor can be varied as a function of the demand to effectively change the value of current at which the steady state value of the thermal capacity used is equal to 100%. Since losses increase with increasing frequency, the current required to reach rated machine temperature is likely to be lower at high speeds. A reduced k factor at higher demand settings can be used to adjust the steady state value of thermal capacity used to account for such speed effects. Adjustment of the k factor as a function of the speed demand can also be used to account for decreased cooling effects at low speeds in cases where the cooling is diminished at low speeds. Figure " Use of a Variable k-Factor in Variable Thermal Overload Protection Function" shows an example of how to use the 20 parameters to define a k-Factor variation with the demand setting. The values of the parameters are given in Table "Values of the k-Factor Settings". Note that the programmed value at 190% demand is used at all speeds in excess of 190%.

6.17 Device 50 - Fixed Pickup Instantaneous Overcurrent Device OverviewFixed pickup instantaneous overcurrent is used to protect the motor and connected load very quickly against operation under conditions of high current. The fixed pickup instantaneous overcurrent function provides a single instantaneous overcurrent setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the current rises above that value. The function can be programmed to produce a trip or an alarm when any one, any two, or all three of the phase currents is above the set point. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

Device 50 provides parameter status as shown in table Advanced Motor Protection Menu - Fixed Pickup Instantaneous Overcurrent.

6.18 Device 51 - Fixed Inverse Time Overcurrent

6.18.1 Device 51 - Fixed Inverse Time Overcurrent

OverviewFixed pickup inverse time overcurrent is used to protect the motor and connected load against operation under conditions of high current with a trip time that is inversely related to the amount of current. The fixed pickup inverse time overcurrent function provides a single instantaneous overcurrent setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the chosen inverse time characteristic is met. The function can be programmed to produce a trip or an alarm when any one, any two, or all three of the phase currents has met its inverse time curve. A variety of IEEE, ANSI, IEC, and IAC inverse time curves are selectable as well as a user defined curve function. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. Flux based PLL or encoder provides per unit speed (absolute value).

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

User Programmed CurveA user defined pickup and dropout time curve may be selected that allows pickup and drop out times to be entered over the range of 0 to 190% per unit current. The pickup level that is set defines the point on the curve that divides between dropout times and pickup times. Pickup and dropout times are linearly interpolated between points except for that the 190% point defines the pickup time for all values above that point. Typically, the VFD cannot measure output currents in excess of 200% and current readings will tend to saturate in the case of currents in excess of that value (this should be verified for the specific VFD in cases where protection may be affected by output current sensor saturation). The pickup or dropout time is assumed to be constant between the closest point to the pickup level and the pickup level itself. Refer to the figure below to view an example of a user programmed curve.

The table shown below contains the parameters used to generate the User Programmed OverCurrent Trip Curve Example diagram.

The time dial multipler (TDM) affects the actual value of the trip time as well as the curve input data. If the TDM is set to one, then the times in the table will be obtained but the times may also be scaled with a non-unity value of the TDM setting. The reset type must also be set to "timed" for the reset values in the table to apply. With reset type set to "instantaneous", an instantaneous reset will occur when the current falls below the pickup level.

6.21 Device 59G - Fixed Pickup Instantaneous Zero Sequence Overvoltage

OverviewFixed pickup instantaneous zero sequence overvoltage is used to protect the motor very quickly under conditions of high zero sequence voltage which could be caused by high phase to ground leakage or a ground fault. The fixed pickup zero sequence overvoltage function provides a single zero sequence overvoltage setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the zero sequence voltage rises above that value. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor.

Note

The zero-sequence voltage uses a per unit system based on the rated line to neutral voltage of the machine. A 100% zero sequence voltage will occur when the RMS value of the average of the three phase voltages with respect to earth ground is equal to the rated machine voltage (given as a line-to-line voltage) divided by the square root of 3.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

6.22 Device 59G - Fixed Pickup Definite Minimum Time Zero Sequence Overvoltage

OverviewFixed pickup definite minimum time zero sequence overvoltage is used to protect the motor against sustained operation under conditions of high zero sequence voltage which could be caused by high phase to ground leakage or a ground fault. The fixed pickup zero sequence overvoltage function provides a single zero sequence overvoltage setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the zero sequence voltage rises above that value. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor.

Note

The zero-sequence voltage uses a per unit system based on the rated line to neutral voltage of the machine. A 100% zero sequence voltage will occur when the RMS value of the average of the three phase voltages with respect to earth ground is equal to the rated machine voltage (given as a line-to-line voltage) divided by the square root of 3.

6.23 Device 66 - Notching or Jogging Device - Starts per HourOverviewThe starts per hour function is used to enforce a minimum time between starts of the machine. A programmable minimum time since last start can be set. A start attempt prior to the expiration of the minimum time can be programmed to trip, alarm, or block start.

NoteThe Protection Systems Engineer must ensure that either the fixed or variable Thermal Model protection parameters are properly set.

A thermal model is required for hot starts, cold starts, and minimum thermal capacity to run. It is not possible to use these functions without a thermal model. The software is arranged to automatically enable the fixed thermal model once one the three functions is enabled. That is, the thermal model cannot be disabled as long as the hot starts, cold starts, or minimum thermal capacity functions are enabled.

If the thermal model is not configured properly, the system will not be protected as intended.

6.27 Device 81 - Fixed Pickup OverfrequencyOverviewFixed pickup overfrequency is used to protect the motor and connected load against sustained operation under conditions of higher than desired frequency. The fixed pickup overfrequency function provides a single overfrequency setting that produces a trip or alarm condition when the frequency rises above that value. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function will remain enabled until the drive stops or the demand is set to a value below the minimum speed reset. The minimum speed reset is used to define a range of demand settings below which the function will remain in a reset condition. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

Device 81 provides parameter status as shown in table Advanced Motor Protection Menu - Fixed Pickup Overfrequency

Note

Over-frequency is enabled by a minimum speed or by a starting time, both of which can be set to zero. If set to zero, the function is enabled on start-up.

6.28 Device 81 - Variable Pickup OverfrequencyOverviewVariable pickup overfrequency is used to protect the motor and connected load against operation at higher frequencies than desired or to detect conditions under which the motor frequency has risen above the desired setpoint due to problems with load regeneration or other difficulties in the machine or load. The variable pickup overfrequency function provides a curve of overfrequency points as a function of the commanded motor speed. A trip or alarm condition occurs when that frequency rises above the curve at a given speed setting. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function will remain enabled until the drive stops or the demand is set to a value below the minimum speed reset. The minimum speed reset is used to define a range of demand settings below which the function will remain in a reset condition. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response), when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

Device 81 provides parameter status as shown in table Advanced Motor Protection Menu - Variable Pickup Overfrequency.

Note

Over-frequency is enabled by a minimum speed or by a starting time, both of which can be set to zero. If set to zero, the function is enabled on start-up.

6.31 Device 81 - Fixed Pickup High Frequency Rate of ChangeOverviewFixed pickup high frequency rate of change is used to protect the motor and connected load against fast changing frequencies or high rates of acceleration. The fixed pickup high frequency rate-of-change function provides a single frequency rate of change setting that produces a trip or an alarm condition when the rate-of-change of frequency rises above that value. The function offers an enable that latches once a programmable minimum speed has been reached. The function can also be enabled once a programmable time period has elapsed since the starting of the motor. The per-unit speed protection variable may be derived from a flux based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) or encoder. The default is PLL.

NoteEncoder Loss

Depending upon the value of parameter 1320 (encoder loss response),when a loss of the encoder occurs, the drive will either default to the phase locked loop to obtain motor speed information or the drive will stop.

Device 81 provides parameter status as shown in table Advanced Motor Protection Menu - Fixed Pickup High Frequency Rate of Change.

8.1.3 RTD Status Screen

RTD StatusThe RTD Status Screen displays the status and temperature of all RTD inputs. The RTD status may be displayed as OK, Short, Open, or Disable.

Referring to the RTD Status Screen shown below, it can be seen that RTD1 (RT1) displays a status of OK. This means that the RTD1 is enabled, and neither shorted, nor opened. Viewing the lower portion of the status screen, it can be seen that RTD1 shows a valid temperature of 94.2 °C . The remaining RTDs in the status screen display a status of Disable.

Looking at the lower portion of the screen, it can be seen all but the valid RTD have a temperature value of 3276 °C. This is a purposely programmed value to show that the RTD does not have an OK status. In this screen, the status of those RTDs with invalid temperature show a Disable status. Other valid status for invalid temperature display may be Short, Open, or Disable.

Appendix AA.1 IEEE Device Numbers and Functions

IEEE device numbers and functions Each standard device number, its definition and its functions are based on a system adopted as standard for automatic switchgear by IEEE, and incorporated in American Standard C37.2 - (1979). The table provides the definition of only those functions used in motor relay protection for Sinamics GH180 Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drives.

Device Number

Definition and Function

12 Overspeed device is usually a direct-connected speed switch that functions on machine overspeed.14 Underspeed device functions when the speed of a machine falls below a pre-determined value.37 Undercurrent or underpower relay functions when the current or power flow decreases below a predetermined

value.38 Bearing protective device functions on excessive bearing temperature or on other abnormal mechanical con‐

ditions associated with the bearing, such a s undue wear, which may eventually result in excessive bearing temperature or failure.

46 Reverse-phase or phase-balance current relay is a relay that functions when the polyphase currents are of reverse phase sequence or when the polyphase currents are unbalanced or contain negative phase-sequence components above a given amount.

48 Incomplete sequence relay is a relay that generally returns the equipment to the normal, or off, position and locks it out if the normal starting, operating, or stopping sequence is not properly completed within a prede‐termined time. If the device is used for alarm purposes only, it should preferably be designated as 48A alarm.

49 Machine or transformer thermal relay is a relay that functions when the temperature of a machine armature winding or other load carry winding or element of a machine or power transformer exceeds a predetermined value.

50 Instantaneous overcurrent relay is a relay that functions instantaneously on an excessive value of current.51 AC time overcurrent relay is a relay with either a definite or inverse time characteristic that functions when the

ac input current exceeds a predetermined value, and in which the input current and operating time are inde‐pendently related or inversely related through a substantial portion of the performance range.

55 Power factor relay is a relay that operates when the power factor in an ac circuit rises above or falls below a predetermined value.

66 Notching or jogging device functions to allow only a specified number of operations of a given device or equipment, or a specified number of successive operations within a given time of each other. It is also a device that functions to energize a circuit periodically or for fractions of specified time intervals, or that is used to permit intermittent acceleration or jogging of a machine at low speeds for mechanical positioning,

81 Frequency relay is a relay that responds to the frequency of an electrical quantity, operating when the frequency or rate of change of frequency exceeds or is less than a predetermind value.

Separate descriptive tables as configured for the devices used in Motor Protection for SINAMICS GH180 Medium Voltage Variable Frequency Drives are provided in the sections that follow.

ESD guidelines AA.1 ESD-sensitive Components

Guidelines for Handling Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESD)

NOTICE

ESD Sensitive Equipment● Always be aware of electrostatic discharge (ESD) when working near or touching

components inside the VFD cabinet. The printed circuit boards contain components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Handling and servicing of components that are sensitive to ESD should be done only by qualified personnel and only after reading and understanding proper ESD techniques. The following ESD guidelines should be observed. Following these rules can greatly reduce the possibility of ESD damage to printed circuit board (PCB) components.

● Always transport static sensitive equipment in antistatic bags.● Always use a soldering iron that has a grounded tip. Also, use either a metallic vacuum-

style plunger or copper braid when desoldering.● Ensure that anyone handling the printed circuit boards is wearing a properly grounded

static strap. The wrist strap should be connected to ground through a 1 Megohm resistor. Grounding kits are available commercially through most electronic wholesalers.

● Static charge build-up can be removed from a conductive object by touching the object with a properly grounded piece of metal.

● When handling a PC board, always hold the card by its edges.● Do not slide printed circuit boards (PCBs) across any surface (e.g., a table or work bench).

If possible, perform PCB maintenance at a workstation that has a conductive covering that is grounded through a 1 Megohm resistor. If a conductive tabletop cover is unavailable, a clean steel or aluminum tabletop is an excellent substitute.

● Avoid plastic Styrofoam™, vinyl and other non-conductive materials. They are excellent static generators and do not give up their charge easily.

● When returning components to Siemens Industry, Inc. always use static-safe packing. This limits any further component damage due to ESD.

Components that can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge (ESD)

NOTICE

Electrostatic discharge

Electronic components can be destroyed in the event of improper handling, transporting, storage, and shipping.

Pack the electronic components in appropriate ESD packaging; e.g. ESD foam, ESD packaging bags and ESD transport containers.

To protect your equipment against damage, follow the instructions given below.

● Avoid physical contact with electronic components. If you need to perform absolutely essential work on these components, then you must wear one of the following protective gear:

– Grounded ESD wrist strap

– ESD shoes or ESD shoe grounding strips if there is also an ESD floor.

● Do not place electronic components close to data terminals, monitors or televisions. Maintain a minimum clearance to the screen (> 10 cm).

● Electronic components should not be brought into contact with electrically insulating materials such as plastic foil, plastic parts, insulating table supports or clothing made of synthetic fibers.

● Place components in contact with ESD-suited materials e.g. ESD tables, ESD surfaces, ESD packaging.

● Measure on the components only if one of the following conditions is met:

– The measuring device is grounded with a protective conductor.

– The measuring head of a floating measuring device has been discharged directly before the measurement.

The necessary ESD protective measures for the entire working range for electrostatically sensitive devices are illustrated once again in the following drawings. Precise instructions for ESD protective measures are specified in the standard IEC 61340-5-1.
