Three-phase input on 47–63 Hz and three-phase output to the motor cover the standard industrial mains ranges; output frequency runs 0–550 Hz, which matters when the driven load is a high-speed spindle or a pump on a V-belt where head and flow need trimming outside the 50/60 Hz window. Default switching frequency is 4 kHz — raising it quiets motor whine but trims continuous output current per the SINAMICS derating curve, so cabinet-build sizing starts at 4 kHz and only steps up once the thermal budget is checked. ## Plant-network and I/O On-board PROFINET and EtherNet/IP means the drive drops into a Siemens PLC rack conversation and a Rockwell/Logix PAC conversation without a gateway card — one Ethernet cable handles cyclic process data, parameterisation, and diagnostics on either protocol. A single relay output (30 VDC, 5 A) handles the brake-release or fault-annunciation contact; discrete I/O is intentionally minimal because the heavy lifting is over the fieldbus, not the terminal block. ## Cabinet footprint and ambient envelope The converter body is 218 mm deep × 140 mm wide × 295 mm tall, an IP20 cabinet-mount format with screw terminations — designed to sit inside a sealed enclosure, not on the machine frame, so the panel builder allocates DIN or backplate space, gland-plate entries for the motor cable shield, and accounts for the 45 °C upper ambient around it. Operating range spans -20 °C to +45 °C; below 0 °C the cabinet heater brings the interior up before the drive is enabled, and above 40 °C the panel ventilation or filter-fan schedule is what keeps the drive inside its derating envelope. ## Lifecycle position The part sits in the mature lifecycle stage — not a fresh release, still factory-supported as a current-line G120X frame, but the planning signal is to confirm firmware compatibility and a spare slot against the BOM freeze rather than treat it as a brand-new series with a long roadmap tail.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6SL3220-3YE28-0UF0 SINAMICS G120X, 15 kW, 30 A","metaDescription":"Siemens 6SL3220-3YE28-0UF0 SINAMICS G120X drive, 15 kW / 30 A, 380–480 V three-phase, PROFINET/EtherNet/IP.
