The <strong>3UF5</strong> <strong>SIMOCODE</strong>-<strong>DP</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />
There is less <strong>and</strong> less time in between<br />
ordering <strong>and</strong> the start-up of<br />
a system – however, the requirements<br />
made on motor feeders are<br />
increasing. A system should, for<br />
example, be compact, intelligent<br />
<strong>and</strong> powerful. Every motor has<br />
optimum protection, the scope of<br />
wiring is as small as possible <strong>and</strong><br />
spares must not mean high storage<br />
costs.<br />
To meet all these requirements, the<br />
system designer has to have extensive<br />
knowledge of the complete range of<br />
low-voltage switchgear. The new<br />
communications-capable<br />
<strong>SIMOCODE</strong>®-<strong>DP</strong> <strong>3UF5</strong>0 – Siemens<br />
<strong>Motor</strong> <strong>Protection</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Control</strong> <strong>Device</strong> -<br />
Decentralised Peripherals – makes life<br />
easier for the system designer.<br />
<strong>SIMOCODE</strong>-<strong>DP</strong> is a tried <strong>and</strong><br />
tested system<br />
<strong>SIMOCODE</strong> 3UF10/20 devices have<br />
been in use all over the world for more<br />
than five years. They protect <strong>and</strong><br />
control motors for the chemical, oil <strong>and</strong><br />
gas industry. <strong>Motor</strong>s with heavy<br />
starting duty as used in paper, cement<br />
<strong>and</strong> metal production for example are<br />
no problem for <strong>SIMOCODE</strong>.<br />
<strong>SIMOCODE</strong> also helps ensure that<br />
high-availability systems such as coal,<br />
gas <strong>and</strong> hydro electric plants run<br />
around the clock. <strong>SIMOCODE</strong> provides<br />
the communication between the<br />
master level <strong>and</strong> the automation level<br />
via the PROFIBUS®-FMS/SINEC®-L2-<br />
bus.<br />
The new <strong>SIMOCODE</strong>-<strong>DP</strong> <strong>3UF5</strong>0 with<br />
integrated PROFIBUS-<strong>DP</strong> interface has<br />
established itself worldwide in a short<br />
time span. It protects <strong>and</strong> controls for<br />
example Cement <strong>and</strong> Petrochemical<br />
industries in Malaysia; Paper,<br />
Chemical, Textile, Steel, Gas <strong>and</strong><br />
Waterwork plants in Europe; Chemical<br />
plants in South Africa; Food <strong>and</strong><br />
Consumergoods industries in South<br />
America <strong>and</strong> like the Steel industry in<br />
North America will soon be installed in<br />
a Steel plant in Australia.<br />
The new <strong>SIMOCODE</strong>-<strong>DP</strong> <strong>3UF5</strong>0 is<br />
based on the tried <strong>and</strong> tested<br />
<strong>SIMOCODE</strong> 3UF10/20. In addition to<br />
the existing control functions, such as<br />
direct-, reversing-, star-delta starters,<br />
there is now the possibilty to<br />
implement user-specific controls by<br />
using the freely assignable inputs <strong>and</strong><br />
outputs <strong>and</strong> the built-in truth tables,<br />
timers <strong>and</strong> counters.<br />
The existing motor protection<br />
functions (overload, phase failure <strong>and</strong><br />
current imbalance detection) have<br />
been supplemented by thermistor<br />
motor protection <strong>and</strong> earth-fault<br />
monitoring.<br />
