What this drive module is
The Siemens 6SL3210-1RE26-0UL0 is a SINAMICS G120 Power Module from the PM240P-2 family, an unfiltered drive rated for 3-phase 380-480 V AC input at 47-63 Hz. It delivers 22 kW under high overload (HO) — 150 % for 60 s, 100 % for 240 s — and 30 kW under low overload (LO) — 135 % for 3 s, 110 % for 57 s, 100 % for 240 s. Ambient temperature range is -20 to +50 °C for HO duty and -20 to +40 °C for LO duty. This is a manufactured-to-order product class (C), not a stocked shelf item. It ships without a Control Unit or operator panel; the approved CU firmware version is V4.7 SP6 HF1.
Siemens classifies this module as NRND (Not Recommended for New Design). The packaging dimensions are 495 x 356 x 300 mm (L x W x H), FSD frame size, IP20 protection. Compliance documentation includes RoHS since 22-12-16 and a REACH Article 33 notification for Lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1 % w/w.
Duty ratings that govern the real load
The HO rating (22 kW) is the one that sets the continuous motor current for applications with short overload peaks — typical for conveyors, pumps, and fans that need a 150 % torque burst for 60 s. The LO rating (30 kW) applies when the load profile is steadier and the ambient stays below 40 °C. The 150 % / 60 s HO ceiling means this module handles a starting or jam condition without tripping, then settles to 100 % continuous. The unfiltered input means the drive expects a line reactor or DC-link choke in the installation to limit harmonic distortion to EN 61800-3 levels. Panel builders should account for the FSD frame footprint (472 x 200 x 237 mm HxWxD) and the 495 mm shipping box when planning enclosure space.
