The Siemens 4EU3622-0EH08-4BA0 is a 3-phase mains choke — a Netzdrossel — rated for 60 A continuous at 380 V AC, 50 Hz. Its 5 mH inductance limits harmonic currents and smooths line-side transients feeding a variable-frequency drive or a DC bus. That's a deliberate design for heavy filtering, not a general-purpose line reactor.
This is an open-frame (IP00) component — no enclosure, no finger-safe cover. Mount it inside a cabinet where the 0.227 m depth, 0.35 m width, and 0.321 m height fit the available backplane or chassis space. The main circuit connects via flat connectors or screw-type terminals, so you'll need ring or fork lugs sized for the 60 A path. Thermal class H insulation (180 °C continuous) means the winding can run hot; plan for natural or forced airflow to keep the surrounding panel temperature within the 40 °C ambient rating where the losses are specified.
Losses and thermal budget
Total power loss at rated load is 480 W — 286 W in the coil and 194 W in the iron core. That's heat that has to leave the cabinet. For a 60 A continuous duty, budget for that dissipation when sizing ventilation or an enclosure cooler. The 40 °C ambient rating is the reference; if your panel runs hotter, derate the current or add forced air.
