Mitigate obsolete VSD, prevent failures of drives as failure rate of 2800 Danfoss was high
Technology upgrade, upgrade plc from S7-300 to S7-1500, profibus to profinet
Standardise HMI to TP700 as a 3rd party HMI was used and was now obsolete
Ability to perform backups and diagnostics from the plant control network
Improve visualisation and diagnostics of the VSD on the HMI

20 x Sinamics G120 VSD series using PM240-2 power module, CU 240E-2PN control unit with Profinet communication and IOP-2 Intelligent Operator Panels
Siemens S7-1500 controller series and TP700 Comfort HMI panel. Customer used TIA Portal Step 7 and Start Drive to engineer complete project in one place

"Cost saving, Siemens was 15 % cheaper than Danfoss, easy integration with Siemens S7-1500 PLC and TP700 HMI. No downtime on this system ever since. The very user friendly TIA Software platform allowed us to do the software engineering, integration and implementation in-house and the user interface(HMI) was re-engineered to be more user friendly to the operator."

Hanneel Govindsamy(Control & Automation Engineering Controller), CCBSA
