560 kW at 380-480 V — what the overload profile means for pump and fan duty
The 6SL3220-1YE66-1CB0: Rated power 560 kW at 380-480 V 3-phase with a 135 % overload for 3 s, 110 % for 60 s, and 100 % for 240 s — the 135 % burst handles short-duration starting torque on high-inertia fans without oversizing the drive. The 110 % overload for 60 s covers the ramp-up of centrifugal pumps against a closed valve; the 100 % continuous ceiling means the drive runs at nameplate power indefinitely without derating. Integrated RFI suppression filter for category C3 meets EN 61800-3 conducted emission limits for industrial environments — no external filter needed for most second-environment installations.
Fieldbus and I/O — BMS-ready without extra modules
Fieldbus integrated: MODBUS RTU, BACnet MS/TP, and USS on the same terminal block — the drive auto-detects the protocol on power-up, so no DIP switch or parameter change is needed to switch between MODBUS and BACnet. Without operator panel as shipped — the IO expansion is included, but the HMI panel is ordered separately if local control is required. Ambient temperature range 0 to +45 °C — above 40 °C the output current may need derating per the manual; the FSJ frame size provides the heat sink surface for this power class.
Sourcing and lifecycle — active production, made-to-order
Product status active — the drive is still in Siemens' current portfolio, not a legacy or phase-out line. Product class C means the unit is manufactured to order and cannot be returned or reused — lead time and pricing are confirmed at RFQ against the BOM quantity. Export control classification AL:N / ECCN EAR99H means no special license is required for most commercial shipments, though end-use checks may apply.
Compliance documentation — RoHS, REACH, and substance reporting
RoHS compliant since 11 March 2020 — the drive meets the EU directive on hazardous substance restrictions. REACH Article 33 duty to inform: lead (CAS 7439-92-1) is present above 0.1 % w/w in the product — this triggers a reporting obligation for downstream users under EU REACH. Degree of protection IP20 / UL open type — suitable for installation in a clean, dry enclosure; not rated for washdown or outdoor exposure.
