315 kW infrastructure drive — what the ratings mean on site
The 6SL3220-3YH56-1CF0: Rated 315 kW at 500-690 V three-phase, 47-63 Hz, with overload capability of 135% for 3 s or 110% for 60 s, 100% for 240 s — that's the duty cycle for a pump or fan load where the peak comes during start or a momentary stall, not continuous. The RFI suppression filter is category C3, so it's meant for industrial networks (second environment), not residential feed. In a hot mechanical room above 45 °C, you'll need forced ventilation or a bigger cabinet. IP20 / UL open type means it's not sealed against dust or drips; mount it in a clean, dry enclosure. Comes with the Intelligent Operator Panel (IOP) and IO expansion onboard, plus PROFINET PN and Ethernet IP fieldbus integrated — no extra module to source. The IOP lets you commission and fault-trace without a laptop, which is the difference between a 20-minute swap and a service call.
