It's built for the high-voltage end of the G120 family, accepting 500-690 V three-phase AC input at 47-63 Hz. Rated for high overload duty: 7.5 kW at 200% for 3 seconds, 150% for 57 seconds, 100% for 240 seconds, with ambient temperatures from -10 to +50 °C. Under low overload it delivers 11 kW at 140% for 3 seconds, 110% for 57 seconds, 100% for 240 seconds, with ambient from -10 to +40 °C. The FSD frame measures 512 x 275 x 204 mm (HxWxD) and carries an IP20 rating — meaning it's intended for enclosure mounting, not standalone washdown areas. The energy recovery capability is the headline feature here: on a conveyor, crane, or centrifuge that cycles between motoring and braking, this module feeds regenerated power back to the supply instead of heating a brake resistor. That saves panel space, cuts cooling load, and recovers energy that would otherwise be wasted. No external braking chopper or resistor needed for most deceleration profiles. ## What the overload ratings mean on site The high overload curve (7.5 kW at 200% for 3 seconds) is the one that governs motor starting and short-duration peak loads. A 7.5 kW pump or fan that draws 200% rated current during acceleration stays within the module's capability for 3 seconds — enough for most direct-on-line starts. The 150% for 57 seconds covers the acceleration ramp of a higher-inertia load like a centrifuge or conveyor. Low overload (11 kW at 140% for 3 seconds) applies when the duty cycle is less demanding — a constant-torque load that doesn't spike above 140% during start. The ambient temperature ceiling drops to +40 °C under this rating, so if the panel runs hot, the high overload curve with its +50 °C limit is the safer choice. ## Panel fit and what it connects to IP20 means the module needs an enclosure — it's not rated for dust or moisture ingress on its own. The FSD frame mounts in a standard G120 backplane; no Control Unit or BOP is included.","metaTitle":"Siemens 6SL3225-0BH27-5UA1 SINAMICS G120 PM260, 7.5 kW HO /","metaDescription":"Siemens SINAMICS G120 Power Module PM260, 500-690 V 3 AC, 7.5 kW high overload / 11 kW low overload.
