Power Module PM230 for pump and fan drives
The Siemens 6SL3223-0DE27-5AA0 is a SINAMICS G120P Power Module PM230 rated for 380-480 V three-phase AC input at 47-63 Hz. It delivers 7.5 kW under low-overload duty — 150% for 3 seconds, 110% for 57 seconds, and 100% for 240 seconds — which is the typical curve for centrifugal pumps and fans where peak torque only appears during acceleration. The integrated Class A EMC filter simplifies panel wiring by eliminating the external filter on most industrial mains. The enclosure is IP55 / UL Type 12, so the module can be mounted directly in washdown areas or dusty environments without a separate cabinet. Ambient temperature range is 0 to +40 °C at low overload. Dimensions are 540 x 180 x 249 mm (HxWxD), frame size FSB, and the module ships without a Control Unit — it requires a CU230P-2 with firmware V4.3.2 or higher.
Integration notes for the CU230P-2
The PM230 mounts on a backplate or in a panel using the FSB footprint. Connect the DC-link braking resistor terminals if the load requires rapid deceleration — the module supports external braking resistors but does not include one. The integrated filter covers conducted emissions to EN 61800-3 Category C2 for most installations; verify the cable length and motor type against the filter rating for longer runs.
