110 kW at 150% overload — the duty cycle that matters
The 6SL3210-1KE32-1AF1: Rated power is 110.0 kW with a 150% overload capability for 3 seconds — this is the short-term peak torque window for breaking away a stuck load or accelerating a high-inertia fan, not the continuous rating. The 3AC 380-480 V +10/-20% input range covers nominal 400 V and 480 V grids without a transformer tap change; the 47-63 Hz tolerance handles weak genset supplies where frequency droops below 50 Hz. The integrated Class A EMC filter meets conducted emission limits for industrial mains in the EU (EN 61800-3 first environment restricted distribution) — no external filter needed for most panel builds. The IP20 / UL Open Type enclosure means it mounts inside a clean, dry cabinet; the FSF frame size (708 x 305 x 357 mm) determines the backpanel real estate and the cooling clearance above and below the heatsink.
PROFINET and Safe Torque Off — fieldbus and safety in one package
Integrated PROFINET-PN fieldbus eliminates a separate communication module — the drive appears as a PROFIdrive device on the network, and the controller cycles the process data (setpoint, actual speed, status word) over the same Ethernet cable as the configuration download. Safe Torque Off (STO) is built in to SIL 3 / PL e, so the safety relay or F-PLC can remove torque without a power contactor between the drive and the motor — this cuts panel wiring and cabinet volume. The I/O complement — 6 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 1 analog input, 1 analog output — covers the basic handshake and feedback for a standalone pump or conveyor zone without an extra remote I/O slice. The external 24 V supply requirement means the control logic stays alive when the mains is off, keeping the fieldbus node present on the network.
Active production, mature lifecycle — sourcing posture
Product status is active with a lifecycle stage marked as mature — Siemens continues to manufacture and support this frame size, but mature status signals that the platform is stable and no further feature development is expected. This is the standard position for a drive that has been in the catalogue for several years; the BOM position is safe for new designs and MRO spares alike. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: 9N9999 — no specific license required for most industrial destinations, but the REACH Article 33 declaration lists lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w in certain components. RoHS compliance dates from 13-02-17. The compliance pack (EU Declaration of Conformity, UL File number, REACH dossier) is available with the shipment documentation.
