Siemens Drive Technologies Division recently announced the introduction of its new modular frequency inverter SINAMICS G120P specially designed for pump, fan, and compressor applications, which was presented at the SPS/IPC/Drives Fair in Nuremberg from 24 - 26 Nov 2009.

According to Siemens, this compact drive is particularly suitable for the energy-efficient operation of flow machines in building automation, the process industry and in the water management industry. In addition, the new Sinamics G120P is a modular frequency inverter with IP55 degree of protection that has been specially designed for pump, fan and compressor applications.

The IP55 degree of protection also enables Sinamics G120P to be used under harsh ambient conditions. It can also be used for the closed-loop speed control of fans and circulating pumps for heating and cooling systems, for booster pumps, or for pumps for level control.
