Duty cycle that drives the spec
The 6SL3000-1BE32-5AA0: This resistor handles 250 kW for 15 seconds or 200 kW for 20 seconds at 2.2 ohms, with a 600 V DC input. The short-time rating is the key selection parameter — it's sized for the deceleration energy of a SINAMICS blocksize drive, not continuous dissipation. The 2.2 ohm value sets the peak current during braking; matching it to the drive's internal chopper threshold is critical to avoid nuisance overvoltage trips.
Compliance and documentation
RoHS compliant since December 31, 2007, and REACH registered per Article 33. Export controls are AL: N / ECCN: N, so no special licensing for standard destinations. The product family is Braking resistors for blocksize format, which aligns with SINAMICS G120 and similar drive frames using the blocksize form factor.
