37 kW motor drive with 150% overload headroom
The Siemens 6SL3210-1KE27-0AF1 is a SINAMICS G120C compact converter rated for 37.0 kW output power with 150% overload capability for 3 seconds — enough headroom to handle high-inertia starts on pumps, fans, or conveyors without oversizing the drive frame. It accepts 3-phase 380-480 V AC input (+10%/-20%) at 47-63 Hz, covering the common European and North American industrial supply voltages without a step-down transformer.
Integrated fieldbus and I/O for panel integration
The drive ships with an integrated PROFINET-PN fieldbus interface, so it connects directly to a Siemens S7-1500 or other PN controller without an external communication module — saves a slot in the rack and one configuration step. Onboard I/O includes 6 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 1 analog input, and 1 analog output, enough for basic speed reference, start/stop, and fault feedback without adding an I/O block. Safe Torque Off (STO) is integrated per the description, meeting the safety function requirement for preventing unexpected startup during maintenance — no separate safety relay needed for that single axis.
Active production, mature lifecycle — stable supply
The drive is classified as a standard stock item (Product class A), meaning it is routinely available through distribution channels and can be returned within the standard returns window if needed.
Compliance documentation for cross-border shipments
RoHS compliant since 13 February 2017, and the REACH Article 33 declaration notes lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w — this disclosure is required for importing into EU markets and should be included with the shipping documentation. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: 9N9999, which means no special license is needed for most industrial destinations — the paperwork is straightforward for a standard VFD.
