Drive selection memo
The 6SL3210-1KE15-8AC0 is a SINAMICS G120C drive rated for 2.2 kW output with 150% overload capability for 3 seconds — enough headroom for starting a loaded conveyor or pump across the 380-480 VAC three-phase range. The integrated Class A EMC filter covers conducted emissions for most industrial environments without an external add-on. Safe Torque-Off is built in, so you can wire the STO input directly into a safety relay or PLC safety module without a separate option card. CANopen is the onboard fieldbus; no plug-in module needed for that network.
I/O and mounting
The I/O complement — 6 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 1 analog input, 1 analog output — covers basic speed/start-stop control and feedback without an expansion module. The FSA frame (196 x 73 x 203 mm, HxWxD) fits a standard 200 mm deep enclosure; IP20 / UL Open Type means it belongs in a cabinet, not on the machine frame. Mount it on the backplate with the recommended clearance above and below for airflow.
