250 kW at 110% — the duty rating that decides the fit
The 6SL3220-3YH54-0CP0: The 250 kW rating at 110% overload for 60 seconds and 100% for 240 seconds tells you this drive handles heavy industrial loads like large pumps, fans, and compressors where starting torque or short-term overloads are the norm, not the exception. The 500-690 V 3AC input range means it's for medium-voltage plant distribution, not standard 400 V panels — check your supply transformer taps before specifying.
PROFIBUS DP onboard — no module, but know the network age
Integrated PROFIBUS DP means you don't need a separate communications module, saving a slot and a wiring step. However, PROFIBUS is a legacy fieldbus — if your plant is migrating to PROFINET or EtherNet/IP, you'll need a gateway or a different drive variant. The IP20 / UL open type enclosure is strictly cabinet-mount; plan for forced-air cooling in the panel given the 250 kW dissipation at full load.
