With its SINAMICS Startdrive commissioning software, Siemens is supporting machine builders in the validation of safety functions for SINAMICS variable frequency drives with a guided acceptance test. With SINAMICS Startdrive, Siemens offers a tool for the integration of drive hardware into the TIA Portal engineering framework. This integrated guided acceptance test for safety functions is available for SINAMICS G- and S-series drives and complies with EN ISO 13849-2 and IEC 62061.
The safety acceptance test is extremely user-friendly. A wizard guides the user step-by-step through the acceptance process and checks whether safety functions have been parameterized and executed correctly in the relevant application. For documentation purposes, a standard-compliant acceptance report is then created automatically. With the safety acceptance test integrated into SINAMICS Startdrive, Siemens helps machine builders carry out the legally required validation of safety functions easily and safely.
