What this PM240 power module delivers
The Siemens 6SL3224-0BE15-5UA0 is a SINAMICS G120 PM240 Power Module — the unfiltered variant with an integrated braking chopper, rated for 380-480 VAC three-phase input at 47-63 Hz. Under high-overload duty it delivers 0.55 kW, with a 200% overload for 3 seconds, 150% for 57 seconds, and 100% continuous for 240 seconds. That overload profile suits pump, fan, and conveyor applications where short-duration torque spikes occur without needing a larger frame.
Frame size, mounting, and integration
Housed in an FSA frame — 173 x 73 x 145 mm (HxWxD) — with IP20 degree of protection, this module is intended for enclosure mounting, not standalone washdown environments. It ships without a Control Unit or BOP; you supply the CU (e.g., CU240E or CU250S) that snaps onto the front interface. The integrated braking chopper means you can add an external braking resistor directly, no separate chopper module needed.
