Duty ratings and the overload envelope
The 6SL3210-1RE31-1AL0 is a SINAMICS G120 PM240P-2 power module rated for 55 kW low overload (LO) and 45 kW high overload (HO) from a 3AC 380-480 V +10/-20% supply at 47-63 Hz. The HO duty delivers 150 % rated current for 60 seconds and 100 % for 240 seconds at ambient temperatures from -20 to +50 °C; the LO duty delivers 135 % for 3 seconds and 110 % for 57 seconds at -20 to +40 °C ambient. This dual-duty curve matters when the drive must handle a short peak torque event — a crusher start or a conveyor breakaway — without oversizing the module.
Built-in filter and cabinet fit
A built-in Class A EMC filter is integrated, so the module meets conducted emission limits for industrial environments without an external filter block — saves a DIN-rail slot and the interconnecting cable set. The IP20 enclosure (551 x 275 x 237 mm) is intended for cabinet mounting; the FSE (Full Standard Equipment) protection level means the module ships without a control unit or operator panel, so the commissioning engineer must add a CU (e.g. CU240E-2 or CU250S-2) and a BOP or IOP for local operation. Packaging dimensions are 595 x 400 x 350 mm, and the unit is classified as product class C — manufactured or produced to order, not a stocked shelf item. This aligns with the NRND lifecycle status: the module is still available but no longer recommended for new designs.
Compliance and export control
RoHS compliant since 22-12-16, with a REACH Article 33 disclosure for lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1 % w/w. Export control is AL: N / ECCN: 9N9999, which means no special license is required for most destinations — a factor for cross-border project sourcing.
