Active production — no lifecycle risk for BOM planning
The 6SL3220-1YE56-0CB0: This is a current-production drive, not a legacy or phase-out line. Product class C means it is manufactured to order, not held as a shelf stock item. Lead time and pricing are confirmed at RFQ against the BOM quantity.
315 kW HVAC duty — overload profile and fieldbus
Rated power is 315 kW at 380-480 V, with overload capability of 135 % for 3 seconds, 110 % for 60 seconds, and 100 % for 240 seconds — a profile matched to centrifugal pump and fan loads where peak torque occurs during acceleration, not steady state. Integrated fieldbus includes MODBUS RTU and BACnet MS/TP — no separate communication module required for building automation or SCADA integration. The drive ships without an operator panel or IO expansion; those are added as separate order codes if needed. The RFI suppression filter is built in for category C3 (industrial environment, second environment per EN 61800-3). For residential or first-environment installations, an external filter may be required.
Panel integration — IP20, size FSH, ambient limits
IP20 / UL open type means the drive is intended for installation inside an enclosure — not standalone in washdown or outdoor areas. The FSH frame size determines gland-plate layout and bus-bar routing; confirm the mounting footprint against the panel backplate before cutting. Ambient temperature range is 0 to +45 °C. Above 45 °C, derate the output current per the SINAMICS G120X manual — the 315 kW rating assumes full airflow and no derating at 45 °C.
Compliance documentation — RoHS and REACH
RoHS compliant since 11-03-20. REACH Article 33 declaration notes lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1 % w/w in certain components — this is a standard declaration for drives with lead-bearing solder or terminal plating, not a restriction on sale or installation. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: EAR99H — no special export license required for most destinations, but confirm with your trade compliance team for sanctioned regions.
