Drive ratings and overload profile
The Siemens 6SL3217-0CE31-5UA0 is a SINAMICS V10-1 AC drive rated for 15.0 kW output on a 3AC 380 V supply (-15/+20%, 48-52 Hz). The overload capability is 150 % for 60 seconds, then 100 % for 240 seconds on a 300-second cycle — this means the drive can handle a moderate peak load (like a pump starting or a conveyor jog) without derating the frame size, but the duty cycle resets only after the full 300-second window.
Physical fit and deployment context
The drive is built in an FSD frame size — 401 x 260 x 223 mm (HxWxD) — with IP21 protection and a Basic Operator Panel (BOP) included. IP21 means it is suited for indoor, dry panel environments where no water jets or dust ingress are expected. The FSD frame is a standard Siemens form factor for this power class; panel cutouts and mounting holes follow the SINAMICS V10-1 template. Ambient temperature range is 0 to +50 °C, so derating is required above 40 °C if the drive is packed tightly in a non-ventilated enclosure.
