What is BS EN 61800-7-303 – Electrical power drive systems about ?
BS EN 61800-7-303 is a part of the BS EN 61800 series of international standards that discusses the interface and use of profiles for power drive systems. A Power Drive Unit is used to convert electrical or hydraulic power into mechanical motion (often rotary) and drive a mechanical actuation system.
BS EN 61800-7-303 specifies the mapping of the profile type 3 (PROFIdrive) specified in IEC 61800-7-203 onto different network technologies.
Note: The functions specified in this part of IEC 61800-7 are not intended to ensure functional safety. This requires additional measures according to the relevant standards, agreements and laws.
Who is BS EN 61800-7-303 – Electrical power drive systems for ?
BS EN 61800-7-303 on power drive systems is applicable to:
- Manufacturer of frequency drive
- Manufacturer of the control device
- Electrical engineer
- Quality testing personnel
Why should you use BS EN 61800-7-303 – Electrical power drive systems ?
The use of adjustable speed drives on motor-driven systems— “Power Drive Systems” (PDS)— offers significant energy savings potential in commercial and industrial applications. The PROFIdrive profile was generated by the PROFIBUS & PROFINET user organization PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI). It defines a unified device behaviour and access technique to the drive data.
BS EN 61800-7-303 defines the mapping of the PROFIdrive Base Model on the PROFIBUS DP communication system. BS EN 61800-7-303 provides PROFIBUS DP as a communication network, the PROFIdrive Devices are mapped to the following PROFIBUS DP object: Controller, P-Device and Supervisor. This helps you in the mapping of profile type 3 to network technologies.
BS EN 61800-7-303 exemplifies the required interfaces and profile type 3 specifications that help you achieve precision in terms of power drive systems.
What’s changed since the last update ?
BS EN 61800-7-303:2016 supersedes BS EN 61800-7-303:2008, which is withdrawn on 12 October 2018. It includes:
- Enhanced definition of the using of PROFINET IO Diagnosis ASE and Alarm ASE
- Minor updates in the mapping of the Base Mode Parameter Access to PROFIBUS and PROFINET
