The Siemens 6SL3224-0BE23-0AA0 is a SINAMICS G120 PM240 Power Module — a mature, field-proven drive component designed for 3-phase 380-480 V AC mains. It carries a rated current of 7.7 A and delivers 3.0 kW under high overload conditions (200% for 3 s, 150% for 57 s, 100% for 240 s). The integrated filter class A and braking chopper mean it meets conducted emission limits for industrial environments and can handle regenerative loads without an external braking resistor. This is a spare part; it ships without a Control Unit or BOP, so you'll need a CU230P-2 or similar to complete the drive stack.
The 7.7 A rated current at 380-480 V AC governs the motor cable sizing and upstream protection. At 3.0 kW high overload, this module is sized for a 4-pole induction motor driving a pump, fan, or conveyor with occasional overload peaks — the 200% for 3 s rating covers starting torque or momentary load spikes. The IP20 degree of protection means it's intended for enclosure mounting, not standalone washdown areas. Dimensions of 270 x 153 x 165 mm (HxWxD) place it in the FSB frame size, which determines the DIN-rail mounting footprint and the clearance needed for the integrated filter and braking chopper.
Deployment Context
In a typical panel, this Power Module mounts on the DIN rail alongside a SINAMICS G120 Control Unit and a line reactor or input filter if additional harmonic mitigation is needed. The integrated filter class A satisfies EN 61800-3 for first-environment industrial installations, so you can place it in a panel near sensitive equipment without external filtering — provided the cable length to the motor stays within the filter's rated limits (usually 50 m shielded, 100 m unshielded for this frame size). The braking chopper is rated for the module's DC-link voltage; it will dissipate regenerative energy from vertical loads or rapid deceleration profiles into an external braking resistor connected to terminals R1 and R2.
