315 kW on the HVAC line — what the overload rating buys you
The 6SL3220-1YE56-0CF0 is a SINAMICS G120X infrastructure converter rated 315 kW at 380-480 V 3AC, with a 135% overload for 3 seconds and 110% for 60 seconds (100% continuous for 240 s). That 135% short-term ceiling covers pump start-up and fan inertia without oversizing the drive — common in HVAC/water/wastewater applications where the motor pulls locked-rotor current for a couple of cycles.
Fieldbus and panel fit
Built-in PROFINET PN and Ethernet IP — no IO expansion module needed for basic fieldbus control. The drive ships as IP20 / UL open type, so it lives inside a cabinet; ambient temperature range is 0 to +45 °C without derating. Size FSH means the mounting footprint and busbar spacing match the SINAMICS G120X frame FSH mechanical drawing — confirm the cabinet depth before racking. The integrated radio interference suppression filter is category C3, which covers most industrial mains environments. For residential or TN-S grids with long cable runs, you may need an external line reactor ahead of the drive — the filter alone handles conducted emissions up to the C3 limit.
Active production, made to order
Lifecycle status is active, but the product class is C — manufactured or produced to order, not a stocked shelf item. That means each unit is built against a specific sales order; lead time and availability are confirmed at quote time, not from a warehouse bin. RoHS compliant since March 2020; REACH Article 33 declares lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w — the EU duty-to-inform applies if the drive is part of an article placed on the European market. Export control is AL N / ECCN 3A999A, so no special license for most destinations.
