What the 100 kW peak rating means for your DC bus
This is the SINAMICS braking module, order code 6SL3100-1DE22-0AA0, rated for 600 V DC input with a peak power of 100 kW for 2 seconds — that's the energy it dumps into the external brake resistor during a fast deceleration, not a continuous load. The 100 kW peak is the short-term absorption capability; if your application cycles the brake resistor more frequently than every few seconds, the thermal capacity of the resistor (not the module) becomes the limit. The module itself is just the switch — it's rated for that peak without internal damage.
Lifecycle and procurement reality
Standard ex-works lead time is 1 day, but the estimated lead time to your door is 3 to 5 weeks — typical for a module that ships from Siemens stock then transits through distribution.
Physical fit and what ships
UPC is 662643067125; group code R2S3 and product group 9485 are internal Siemens cataloging fields that match the module to the correct drive frame and accessory list.
