560 kW at 500-690 V — what the duty cycle means for pump and fan loads
The 6SL3220-3YH66-0CP0 is a SINAMICS G120X infrastructure converter rated at 560 kW with a 135% overload for 3 seconds, 110% for 60 seconds, and 100% for 240 seconds — that duty profile matches the starting and surge demands of centrifugal pumps, fans, and compressors in HVAC and water/wastewater service. It runs on a 3-phase 500-690 V supply at 47-63 Hz, so it slots into 690 V distribution common in heavy industrial and marine infrastructure without a step-down transformer.
Size FSJ, IP20, and panel integration
Housed in size FSJ with IP20 / UL open type protection — it is designed for installation inside a clean, dry enclosure or electrical room, not for washdown or outdoor mounting. Packaging dimensions of 1,200 x 1,857 x 800 mm give a sense of the crate size; the converter itself is built as a made-to-order unit (product class C), so it is not a stocked shelf item — it is produced against a confirmed order.
Active production and compliance
RoHS compliant since March 2020, with a REACH Article 33 duty-to-inform notice for lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w — standard for power electronics with leaded solder or component terminations. Export control is AL N / ECCN EAR99H, meaning no special license required for most destinations.
Fieldbus and operator interface
Integrated PROFIBUS DP fieldbus and an Intelligent Operator Panel (IOP) come standard — no need to order a separate HMI or communication module for basic setup and diagnostics. No IO expansion module is included; additional I/O can be added via the SINAMICS G120X option modules if the application needs extra digital or analog channels.
