Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the relevant information is not taken into account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation, in particular its warning notices and safety instructions.
Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying risks and
avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

The topics of energy efficiency and energy saving are also playing an increasingly important
role in the machine tool environment.
With SINUMERIK Ctrl-Energy, Siemens is offering an extensive range of components,
functions, software tools and services to increase the efficiency of machine tools.
Ctrl-Energy
You will find an overview of the complete range of functions under the following link:
www.siemens.com/sinumerik/ctrl-energy
Acquisition, evaluation, and control of energy consumption
The functions Ctrl-E Analysis to acquire and evaluate the energy consumption of the
machine and Ctrl-E Profiles, to control energy-saving states of the machine are available in
SINUMERIK Operate. Additional energy-saving functions or user know-how on this topic can
be added in this area of SINUMERIK Operate.

Introduction

Ctrl-E Analysis
In order to sensitize users to the topic of energy efficiency, the power and energy data of the
machine are first acquired.
Acquiring and evaluating energy consumption
A control system with SINUMERIK Operate without a connected measuring instrument
determines the power directly from the drives and displays this.
Additional consumption-relevant data can be retrieved and displayed at the control using the
additional SENTRON PAC Power Monitoring Device.
Depending on where the SENTRON PAC measuring transducer is installed, you have the
possibility of either measuring the power of the whole machine or only a specific load.
With an integrated measuring function, the energy consumption during a measuring period
can be acquired for all drives together with an additional measuring location – and the
electrical power drawn for a selected load can be recorded with respect to time.
Maximum measuring time
The maximum measuring time for energy between start and stop as well as for an NC part
program is, as a result of the trace recording, 922 seconds (00:15:22).

Hardware components
You require the following hardware in order to be able to use all of the "Ctrl-Energy"
functions:
Catalog, Siemens LV 1/Accessories and spare parts:
For a three-phase measurement according to connection type 3P4W (four conductors,
unbalanced load, without voltage transformers, with three current transformers), accuracy
class 1, primary rated current 100 A, rated secondary current 1A, three window-type current
transformers are recommended (4CN51 17-0CC20).
Note
When measuring the complete machine, it is recommended that the current is sensed
directly after the main switch. For the voltage tap, please observe the usual protection/fusing.
DANGER
Open current transformer circuits result in electric shock and arcing
If not observed, will cause death, serious injury or considerable property damage.
Only measure the current using external current transformers. DO NOT protect the
circuits using a fuse. Do not open the secondary circuit of the current transformer
under load. Short circuit the secondary current terminals of the current transformer
before removing this device. The safety information for the current transformers used
must be carefully followed.
