Power Module PM230 for pump, fan, and conveyor duty
The Siemens 6SL3210-1NE17-7UL0 is a SINAMICS G120 Power Module PM230 — an unfiltered, IP20-rated drive stage sized for 3 kW low overload on a 380–480 V three-phase supply. Low-overload rating means 150% current for 3 seconds, 110% for 57 seconds, and 100% continuous over a 240-second cycle, which suits pump, fan, and light conveyor profiles where peak demand is brief. Ambient temperature range is 0 to +40 °C for the low-overload curve. This is the FSA frame size — 196 x 73 x 165 mm (HxWxD) — and it ships without a Control Unit or operator panel. It requires a CU240B/E-2 or CU230P-2 Control Unit running firmware V4.4 or higher. Note: the PM230 variant does not support safety functions; if your application needs integrated safe torque off, step up to the PM240.
Panel integration notes
FSA frame mounts on a standard DIN rail or panel plate. The 73 mm width leaves room alongside a CU230P-2 Control Unit in a 400 mm enclosure. Unfiltered design means no built-in EMC filter — plan for an external line filter if the installation must meet conducted emission limits (EN 61800-3 Category C2 or C3). The IP20 enclosure requires installation in a clean, dry cabinet; no washdown rating here.
