The SinaSave energy efficiency tool calculates potential energy savings and amortization times based on your individual conditions of use and therefore offers practical assistance in making decisions about investments in energy-efficient technologies.

From SinaSave Version 6.0 and higher, the drive systems to be compared and the relevant drive component parameters are displayed graphically. An additional expansion are the numerous comparison possibilities for different control types and comprehensive product combinations for drive solutions for pump and fan applications. In addition to SIMOTICS motors and SINAMICS drives, the product portfolio comprises SIRIUS switching devices, offering a comprehensive range of comparison possibilities – according to your individual requirements.

SinaSave offers numerous comparison scenarios:

• Comparison of drive systems for pump and fan applications in the output range from 0.55 kW (low voltage) to 5.5 MW (medium voltage) for
  • Reactor control (fixed speed; motor and switching device)
  • Bypass control (fixed speed; motor and switching device)
  • Speed control (variable speed; motor and frequency converter)
• Comparison and evaluation of standard motors (incl. ignition protection motors) in different energy efficiency classes

SinaSave supports the evaluation of the various comparisons of product and system by

• Displaying the potential savings for energy and energy costs, as well as CO₂ emissions
• Estimation of the amortization time
• Estimation of the individual total lifecycle costs
• Representation of the system power losses according to EN 50598‑2 for full load and partial load
• Direct comparison of Siemens drives with the reference Power Drive System (PDS) described in EN 50598‑2
