Duty ratings that set the operating envelope
The 6SL3210-1PC31-6UL0 is a SINAMICS G120 Power Module PM240-2 in the air-cooled blocksize format, rated for 3-phase 200-240 V AC input. For high-overload (HO) duty it delivers 37 kW continuous output, with 200 % overload for 3 seconds, 150 % for 57 seconds, and 100 % for 240 seconds — this profile suits applications like conveyors or extruders that need short torque bursts without oversizing the drive. Under low-overload (LO) duty the continuous rating rises to 45 kW, with 150 % for 3 seconds, 110 % for 57 seconds, and 100 % for 240 seconds. The HO ambient ceiling is 50 °C; LO derates to 40 °C ambient — a meaningful difference if the panel runs warm.
Built-in braking chopper and unfiltered topology
An integrated braking chopper handles DC-bus overvoltage during deceleration, so an external braking resistor can be added without a separate chopper module. The unfiltered design means the drive outputs PWM voltage with full dV/dt — motor cable runs beyond 25 meters may need an output reactor or dV/dt filter to protect the motor winding insulation. The module ships without a control unit or operator panel; it accepts any CU from the SINAMICS G120 family (CU240E-2, CU250S-2, etc.) and is approved for CU firmware version V4.7 HF8 and later. The blocksize footprint measures 708 x 305 x 357 mm (HxWxD) with IP20 protection — plan for top and bottom gland-plate clearance in the enclosure.
Lifecycle and compliance — active production, made to order
Listed as active and in the mature lifecycle stage. The product class is C — manufactured or produced to order, so it is not a stocked shelf item; each unit is built against a customer order, which means lead time depends on the production queue at the time of the RFQ.
