Summary

1.1
1.2
There are two Sinamics G150 variable frequency converters (VFD) for a pump application at
CMPC Santa Fe cellulose site. The commissioning of the units was 2005. Since 2005 both
G150 operates without any problems. Since approx. March 2012 some strange problems
occurred with both units. The system stops without any stop command from DCS (Data
Control System) and the AOP30 panels was frozen and on the operation main screen there
were question marks ? visible for the variables speed, frequency, current etc. The only
possibility to get the system back in operable situation was to switch the power off/on. It looks
like that the CU320 didnt react. Also the Profibus values to the DCS were frozen so that the
operator didnt saw the problem directly. In the DCS it looks like that the drive is running but it
wasnt. For the CMPC plant these pumps are very important and a stop critical for the plant
process.
Siemens Chile tried to investigate the problems and exchanged a CU320 at system No: 267VSD-23-013B (03.07.2012). But this didnt solve the problem. The strange behaviour occurs
again and the unit stops sporadic without any stop command. Due to the reason that this end
customer is very important for Siemens S.A. Chile they opened an escalation to Siemens
Germany. The assigned Siemens escalation manager is Mr. Miroslav Vucicevic (CS LS LD
ENG SYS 4).
2.1
After arrival on site at CMPC in Nacimiento/Chile the end customer reported to Mr. Kuhn that
the last action what the end customer did was some earth cable improvements. He installed
in both G150 cabinets some earth cable wires to the CU320 and TM31 modules. Also he
found out that there was an earth cable missing between the main potential equalization rails
and the cable racks. He reinstalled this earth cable during the last month but he didnt
remember exactly when. Nobody of the end customers technicians could give any exactly
history how often and when and at which unit the problem occurs. The only thing what they
could find out was the beginning of the problems in march 2012 and that at both units the
problems occurs several times. The last problem occur maybe 17.07.2012.
2.2
Due to the reason that after the problem occurs there was no communication of the AOP30
to the CU320 and also the Profibus to the DCS freezes it looks like that the CU320 hanged
up and didnt react. This can be the reason of a corrupted CF storage card. Also it is possible
due to EMI problems (missing proper EMI installation) that the CF cards became corrupted in
some sections which will be accessed randomly and sporadic by the CU320 processor. Due
to the reason that Siemens Chile already exchanged the CU320 hardware without success
the next step is now to exchange the CF cards and also update the firmware to the latest
version 2.6.2.14 for CU320. This action will be done during the service visit of Mr. Kuhn
20.07.2012 & 23.07.2012.
2.2.1
Due to the reason that the spare CF card which was taken by Mr. Kuhn from germany to the
site was not compatible with G150 (S120 CF card) a G150 CF-card with FW 4.3 was taken
from end customers stock. This CF-card was deleted and the G150 FW 2.6.2.14 (taken from
PridaNet) installed.
The Profibus cable inside the cabinet was not installed in a very good condition. It was very
long and also the cable screen of the Profibus cable was not connected directly at the
CU320. The distance between the CU320 Profibus connector and the cable screen
connection should be as short as possible to avoid EMI problems.
The motor cables screen connections is not made very good. The cables are connected only
with pig tails to the earth and not with a clamp around the cable screen for a flat 360
connection. Pig tails can destroy the EMI effect of the cable screen and can cause EMI
problems!
Picture 2.2.1.d, motor cables without correct flat 360 cable screen connection (only with pig tails)
Some alarm entries are very strange. It says that the alarm occurred at 0days and it was
reset at 1230days. This can not be. Maybe with the FW 2.3 there were some problems with
the alarm history?
If the alarm entries are correct there were no strange alarms during the last 1230days. Only a
profbus timeout and an undervoltage of the DC link happened at day 1222 & 1076. But this
will also occur if the end customer switches off the complete cabinet.
The alarm history didnt show abnormal faults.
2.2.2
Since 03.07.2012 (new CU320 installed by Siemens Chile) there is no abnormal alarm entry.
2.3
The reason for this problem couldnt found out exactly during this service visit. Both G150
units operate without problems during the service visit 20.07.2012 23.07.2012.
Due to the reason that in the past suddenly both G150 makes problems it is most unlikely
that some parts are damaged inside both cabinets. Most likely something changed in the
installation. Mr. Nelson Sourit (Siemens Chile) told that he made a new commissioning of
some other converters which are also installed close to these G150. Maybe this cause now a
different EMI condition and makes an influence to the G150 cabinets.
Generally the complete Installation is not EMI proof. The motor cables and also the Profibus
cables are not installed in a way to eliminate EMI. Particular around and inside the G150 it is
very important to have a focus on a proper EMI installation. It can be that the Profibus
information gets corrupted due to EMI influence. This can produce exactly the effect that the
unit stops without any message and fault. If one of the Off-command bits inside the Profibus
telegram gets 0 for a short time the G150 will switch off without any fault (like a normal stop).
Also a high frequency noise current which flows through the electronic boards can interrupt
the CU320 processor and a restart is necessary. This theory explains also the
communication problems of the AOP30 because if the CU320 processor stucks the serial
communication to the AOP stops also and the ?-marks at the AOP screen will appear.
Generally it is difficult to find the problem but first the installation should be correct and
improved.
For a better EMI installation the following steps are recommended:
-Shorten the Profibus communication cables (short as possible)
-No long ways and cable loops of Profibus cable inside the cabinet
-Prevent communication cable paths which are parallel or close to power rails or cables
-Connect the cable screens correctly (both ends also at the PLC side and connect the cable
screen close to the end of the cable, only some cm).
Note: At the CU320 there is a special clamp for Profibus underneath the plastic cover
-Connect all moveable metal parts (cabinet doors, cabinet roof, terminal box etc.) together
with a special EMI braided copper ribbon (see picture 2.3.a). Dont use normal cable wires!
-Connect the motor cable screen correctly. Dont make pig tails. Connect the cable screen
with special clamps 360 around the cable screen to the rail. Also connect the cable screen
at the motor side correctly.
- Make sure that all metal parts are connected with a braided copper ribbon.
Note in picture 2.3.b the G150 No. A.: The cable screens of the Profibus are connected but
there is a gap between the metal of the cabinet box and the earth rail. Such installations will
not give any positive EMI solution because the rail is not connected to the cabinet box! For
HF EMI currents normal cable wires are a big resistance. HF currents will only flow off over a
large metal surface (skin effect). This is also the reason why pig tails will not have any
positive effect against EMI problems.
The end customer has to observe the units again during the next few month. And also it is
recommended to write all problems exactly down with the date, time and what exactly
happened.
If the change of the CF-cards/AOP30 will not solve the problem and the problem occurs
again the next steps should be an improvement in the EMI installation by Siemens Chile or
end customer! If it is for sure that the installation is in a good condition it is possible to
analyse further things but generally, faults like that are most of the time the result of an EMI
problem and a bad EMI installation!

The old AOP and CF cards are overhand to the end customer. Due to the reason that the
CF-cards which was taken by Mr. Kuhn to the site were the wrong one this cards couldnt be
used. But Siemens Chile (Mr. Michael Sourit) asked to get it for another projects. Therefore
these 2 cards (S120 CF cards) are left in Siemens Santiago office.
Due to the reason that the spares were registered at the Chile customs office (after arrival at
the customs) Siemens Chile paid tax for the parts.
