Industrial Controls<br />
Whether the task involves switching, protecting, starting,<br />
or monitoring, with the Sirius modular system, Siemens offers<br />
a coordinated portfolio for industrial controls that is easy to<br />
install in the control cabinet and straightforward in its<br />
integration into distributed systems.<br />
Sirius modular system<br />
New high-capacity size<br />
Siemens has extended its Sirius modular system portfolio<br />
with a new series of flexible devices. The switching, protecting,<br />
and monitoring devices in size S3 have a capacity<br />
of up to 55 kW/400 V and an amperage of 100/115 A<br />
despite their narrow installation width of only 70 mm.<br />
Thus, these new devices allow for a particularly compact<br />
set-up and fulfill the requirement of space-saving components<br />
for modern plant and machine manufacturing.<br />
The tried-and-tested accessories for sizes S00, S0, and S2<br />
that are already featured in the series are compatible with<br />
the new size S3. It is therefore possible to easily connect<br />
the new devices to open AS-Interface and IO-Link systems<br />
with push-in function modules. For example, a current<br />
monitoring relay that can be integrated into the feeder<br />
facilitates direct monitoring and control of the application.<br />
Logic modules reduce the wiring effort and also minimize<br />
the risk of wiring errors. Thanks to the function modules, it<br />
is possible to connect the unit to the control system in the<br />
Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) environment without<br />
the effort commonly associated with this task.<br />
The Sirius modular system is an essential component of<br />
the control cabinet. In addition to the many different possibilities<br />
for combining individual <strong>product</strong>s, extensive configuration<br />
data, such as CAx data for digital planning and<br />
Siemens’ detailed standards expertise, make the control<br />
cabinet designer’s work considerably easier.<br />
