Drive selection memo — 7.5 kW on 200-240 VAC mains
The Siemens SINAMICS G120X order code 6SL3220-3YC24-0UB0 is a variable-frequency drive rated for 7.5 kW output power at 110% overload for 60 seconds (100% for 240 seconds) on a 200-240 V three-phase supply (+10/-20%, 47-63 Hz). That means it can handle a standard 10 HP induction motor on low-voltage North American or Asian mains — common for pump, fan, and compressor duty where the 110% overload covers starting torque without oversizing the drive. Built-in fieldbus is MODBUS RTU, BACnet MS/TP, and USS — no option card needed for building automation or simple PLC networks. The Intelligent Operator Panel (IOP) is included, giving local parameter access and diagnostics without a laptop. Ambient temperature range is -20 to +45 °C, so it runs in unairconditioned electrical rooms or outdoor cabinets with solar loading, as long as airflow around the FSC frame size is maintained.
Panel integration — IP20, frame FSC, paint class 3C2
Enclosure is IP20 / UL open type, meaning it needs to live inside a cabinet or panel that provides the final environmental seal — no outdoor stand-alone mounting. The painting classification is 3C2, which is the standard industrial corrosion-protection level for indoor, dry locations. Packaging dimensions are 435 x 250 x 340 mm (L x W x H). That gives you the shipping box size; the actual drive footprint is smaller, but plan for that envelope when staging the panel layout and gland plate entry.
Lifecycle and compliance — active, RoHS, REACH
Product status is active, lifecycle stage marked as mature — meaning Siemens considers this a stable, current-production drive with no end-of-life announcement. No LTB or successor watch needed for a new design-in or BOM freeze. RoHS compliant since 01-07-2006, and REACH Article 33 duty-to-inform documentation is available from Siemens.
