    This product is currently out of stock and unavailable.

    SKU: C98043-A1600-L1-17 Category: Drive
    • Description
    • Additional information

    The Siemens SIMOREG DC-MASTER C98043-A1600-L1-17 is a plug-in board assembly (electronics board) designed for use within the SIMOREG DC-MASTER 6RA70 series of fully digital DC drive converters. This specific board is a component-level spare part used to maintain or restore the functionality of the 6RA70 drive family, which provides controlled DC voltage output for variable-speed DC motor applications. The SIMOREG DC-MASTER series is manufactured by Siemens and represents a well-established platform for DC drive control in industrial environments.

    The C98043-A1600-L1-17 board serves as a control or interface electronics assembly within the SIMOREG 6RA70 drive system. The 6RA70 platform supports PROFIBUS-DP communication, serial USS protocol, and analog/digital I/O interfaces for integration into automation systems. The drive family features closed-loop armature and field current control, with a fully digital signal processor-based control architecture. The board is designed to operate within the environmental and electrical constraints of the 6RA70 drive enclosure, including a 24 V DC auxiliary supply for the electronics section.

    The SIMOREG DC-MASTER 6RA70 series, and its associated electronics boards such as the C98043-A1600-L1-17, are widely used in industries including steel, paper, plastics, printing, and material handling. These drives are suited for applications requiring precise speed and torque control of DC motors, such as winders, extruders, rolling mills, and crane drives. The modular board design allows for targeted component-level repair and refurbishment without replacing the entire drive unit.

    Common Fault Codes

    F001
    Overvoltage on DC bus or armature circuit detected by the control board.
    Check supply voltage levels and verify correct parameterization of rated voltage. Inspect line supply for voltage spikes.
    F002
    Overcurrent in the armature circuit. Current has exceeded the permissible limit.
    Check motor load conditions, verify current limit parameters (P076, P077), and inspect power semiconductors and wiring.
    F015
    Tacho or encoder signal failure. Speed feedback signal is missing or out of range.
    Check tachogenerator or encoder wiring and connections. Verify feedback type selected in parameters matches the installed hardware.
    F025
    Field current failure. The field current controller has detected a loss of or insufficient field current.
    Check field wiring connections, field supply fuses, and field controller parameters. Verify motor field resistance is within specification.
    F035
    Overtemperature of the power section or heat sink.
    Check cooling fan operation, ensure adequate airflow, verify ambient temperature is within specification, and check heat sink for blockages.
    F060
    PROFIBUS-DP communication fault. Loss of communication with the master controller.
    Check PROFIBUS cable connections and termination resistors. Verify bus address settings and master controller configuration.
    F070
    Parameter memory error. Checksum error detected in the non-volatile parameter memory.
    Reload parameters from backup or re-enter parameters manually. If fault persists, the electronics board may require replacement.
    A050
    Alarm: Drive operating at current limit. Armature current has reached the set limit value.
    Check mechanical load on the motor. Verify current limit parameters are set correctly for the application. Investigate cause of overload.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What drive series is the C98043-A1600-L1-17 board compatible with?

    The C98043-A1600-L1-17 is a spare electronics board designed for use within the Siemens SIMOREG DC-MASTER 6RA70 series of fully digital DC drive converters.

    Can this board be replaced in the field without replacing the entire drive?

    Yes, the C98043-A1600-L1-17 is a plug-in board assembly intended for component-level repair and replacement within the 6RA70 drive unit, allowing targeted refurbishment without full drive replacement.

    What communication protocols does the SIMOREG 6RA70 platform support?

    The 6RA70 platform supports PROFIBUS-DP and the USS protocol over RS-232 and RS-485 serial interfaces, enabling integration with Siemens SIMATIC and other automation systems.

    What type of motors is the SIMOREG DC-MASTER designed to control?

    The SIMOREG DC-MASTER 6RA70 series is designed exclusively for controlling DC motors, providing regulated armature and field current for variable-speed DC drive applications.

    Is parameter backup recommended before replacing this board?

    Yes, it is strongly recommended to back up all drive parameters before replacing the electronics board, as parameter memory is stored on the board and may need to be reloaded after replacement.

    Troubleshooting

    Drive fails to power up and no LEDs illuminate on the control board

    Check the 24 V DC auxiliary supply voltage at the electronics board connector. Measure supply voltage with a multimeter and inspect internal fuses on the board.

    Restore the 24 V DC supply if absent. Replace any blown internal fuses with the correct rated fuse. If supply is present and board remains inactive, the board may require replacement.

    PROFIBUS-DP communication fault displayed and drive does not respond to master commands

    Inspect PROFIBUS cable connections at the drive and master controller. Check bus termination at both ends of the network and verify the drive's PROFIBUS node address parameter.

    Reseat PROFIBUS connectors, ensure correct bus termination resistors are active at network endpoints, and confirm the node address matches the master configuration. Replace cable if damaged.

    Speed control is unstable or motor speed oscillates during operation

    Check speed feedback wiring from the tachogenerator or encoder to the control board. Verify feedback signal quality with an oscilloscope and confirm correct feedback type is selected in parameters.

    Repair or replace faulty feedback wiring. Re-select the correct feedback device type in the drive parameters and re-optimize the speed controller gain and integral time settings.

    Field current fault (F025) appears and motor fails to magnetize

    Measure field supply voltage and field current at the motor terminals. Check field circuit fuses and inspect field wiring for open circuits or poor connections.

    Replace blown field circuit fuses, repair open-circuit field wiring, and verify motor field winding resistance. Confirm field controller parameters match the motor's rated field voltage and current.

    Parameter memory checksum error (F070) occurs after power cycle

    This indicates corruption of the non-volatile parameter memory on the electronics board, often caused by a power interruption during a parameter write operation or board aging.

    Reload parameters from a previously saved backup using the SIMOREG operator panel or DriveMonitor software. If the fault recurs after reloading, the electronics board should be replaced.
