Motor sizing and overload capability
The 6SL3225-0BE27-5AA1: Rated for 7.5 kW at 380-480 V 3 AC in high-overload duty: 200 % for 3 s, 150 % for 57 s, 100 % for 240 s, with ambient temperature limited to 0 to +50 °C. In low-overload duty the rating rises to 11 kW at 150 % for 3 s, 110 % for 57 s, 100 % for 240 s, but the ambient ceiling drops to +40 °C. The 200 % overload for 3 s is the figure that governs starting torque for high-inertia loads such as centrifuges or crushers — the drive must deliver this without tripping on current limit.
Line-side compliance and energy recovery
The PM250 integrates a Class A EMC filter per the description, which meets conducted emission limits for industrial mains without an external filter in most installations. The energy-recovery topology regenerates braking energy back to the supply — no braking resistor is needed for deceleration duty cycles that stay within the module's thermal capacity. RoHS compliant since 01-07-06 and carries a REACH Article 33 duty-to-inform for lead (CAS 7439-92-1 above 0.1 % w/w). The declaration of conformity covers the CE-marked installation;.
Panel integration and environmental limits
Enclosure is IP20 — the module is intended for a clean, dry cabinet; no washdown or dust ingress protection. The footprint is 334 x 189 x 185 mm (H x W x D), and the module ships without a Control Unit or BOP, so those must be ordered separately and snapped onto the front slot. Ambient operating range is 0 to +50 °C for high-overload duty and 0 to +40 °C for low-overload duty. The 10 °C difference is the thermal derating boundary — pushing 11 kW at 50 °C ambient is not supported.
No official successor or cross-reference is listed; the G120 family continues with the PM250 as a current power-module variant. For a line-down replacement, confirm the Control Unit firmware revision matches the existing installation.
