75 kW HO / 90 kW LO — what the duty ratings mean for your load
The 6SL3210-1PE31-8UL0: This SINAMICS G120 Power Module PM240-2 delivers 75 kW under high overload (HO) and 90 kW under low overload (LO), with the HO rating allowing 200% current for 3 seconds and 150% for 57 seconds — enough to start a loaded conveyor or crusher motor without tripping on the inrush. The LO rating handles 150% for 3 seconds and 110% for 57 seconds, suited for variable-torque loads like fans and pumps where the peak demand stays closer to the nameplate. Ambient ceiling is 50 °C at HO and 40 °C at LO — if your panel sits in a hot machine bay, budget for derating or forced airflow above those thresholds.
Active production — sourcing posture for this PM240-2
Sourced through authorized distribution channels; availability and current pricing confirmed against your BOM quantity at RFQ. The blocksize format (708 x 305 x 357 mm) and IP20 protection mean it mounts inside a cabinet with forced cooling — no external washdown tolerance, so keep it clear of coolant mist.
Compliance and documentation — what ships with the module
RoHS compliant since January 2017; REACH Article 33 disclosure notes lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w in certain components. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: 9N9999 — no special licensing required for most commercial shipments. Approved for CU firmware version V4.7 HF8 — confirm the control unit firmware matches if you're swapping into an existing G120 system.
