Drive specs that decide the fit
The 6SL3220-3YH54-0CB0: Rated power is 250 kW at 110% overload for 60 seconds, 100% for 240 seconds — this is the duty cycle for pump/fan applications where short-duration overloads are expected but continuous operation stays at nameplate. The input voltage range is 500-690 V 3AC +10/-20%, 47-63 Hz, covering the common 575 V and 690 V industrial grids in North America and Europe. The drive includes a radio interference suppression filter for category C3, meaning it is intended for industrial environments where the supply is not shared with residential mains. Ambient temperature rating is -20 to +45 °C; above 45 °C the output current must be derated per the manual. Enclosure is IP20 / UL open type — suitable for installation inside a clean, dry control cabinet. The FSG frame size is the largest in the G120X family; the packaging dimensions (395 x 1185 x 608 mm) give a sense of the physical footprint for panel layout.
Integrated fieldbus and IO
Fieldbus is integrated: MODBUS RTU, BACnet MS/TP, and USS are all on-board without needing a separate communication module. This simplifies BOM and wiring for building automation (BACnet) or industrial line control (MODBUS). An Intelligent Operator Panel (IOP) is included for local commissioning and diagnostics. No IO expansion module is fitted as standard — the base unit has the IOP for local control. If additional I/O is needed, the SINAMICS G120X supports an optional IO expansion module (ordered separately).
Compliance and substance restrictions
RoHS compliant since 01 July 2006. REACH Article 33 duty to inform applies: the product contains lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w in certain components. This does not affect normal operation or installation but must be declared for end-of-life recycling compliance in EU markets. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: N — no special export license required for most destinations, but the buyer should verify local import regulations.
