The Siemens 6SL3200-6AM17-7BH0 is a G120P variable speed drive in frame size FSA, rated for 3 kW power output on a 400 V supply line at 50/60 Hz. Output current is 7.7 A, and the drive can push output frequency to 550 Hz — useful for high-speed spindle or centrifuge applications where standard 50/60 Hz motors are insufficient. Overload capacity is specified as 110 % for 57 seconds and 150 % for 3 seconds, repeating every 300 seconds. That 150 % burst handles short-duration load spikes like a conveyor start under full belt load; the 110 % sustained overload covers longer acceleration ramps without tripping. The built-in Filter B (category B per EN 61800-3) attenuates conducted emissions for the first environment (residential / light industrial) without an external line filter.
Fieldbus and I/O complement
Onboard communication includes Modbus/RTU, RS485/USS, and BACnet MS/TP for building-automation integration. Optional PROFIBUS, PROFINET, and CANopen modules slot in when the control architecture requires them — the base drive ships with the RS-485 port live, so a BACnet or Modbus connection works out of the box without an option card. The drive carries 6 digital inputs, 4 analog inputs, and 2 analog outputs — enough for a basic speed reference plus feedback loop without an expansion module. Analog inputs handle 0-10 V or 4-20 mA signals typical of pressure transducers or remote potentiometers.
Product conformity carries CE, EAC, and RCM marks — the drive is accepted in the European Economic Area, the Eurasian Customs Union, and Australia/New Zealand. The EN 61800-3 standard it complies with covers both EMC emission and immunity for adjustable-speed power drive systems.
