Motor power and overload — sizing the drive to the load
The 6SL3210-1KE23-2AF1: Rated at 15.0 kW with a 150% overload capability for 3 seconds, this drive handles short-duration peak torque demands — typical for crushers, extruders, or high-inertia conveyors — without oversizing the frame. The 3-phase input accepts 380-480 V AC +10/-20% at 47-63 Hz, covering standard global line voltages; the integrated Class A EMC filter meets conducted emission limits for industrial environments without an external filter module.
Control integration — fieldbus and I/O complement
PROFINET-PN is embedded on the control board — no separate communication module needed. The I/O complement (6 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 1 analog input, 1 analog output) supports basic machine sequencing and analog setpoint control directly from the drive. Safe Torque Off (STO) is integrated per the description, eliminating the need for an external safety relay in many stop-function applications — a single cable to the STO terminal pair satisfies SIL 3 / PL e stop categories when wired per the manual.
Lifecycle and compliance — active production, documented for audit
RoHS compliant since 01-07-06; REACH Article 33 notification applies for lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w in certain components.
