Duty ratings that define the drive's real load capability
The 6SL3225-0BE35-5UA0 is a SINAMICS G120 Power Module PM250 rated for 55 kW under High Overload (HO) duty: 200 % for 3 s, 150 % for 57 s, 100 % for 240 s at 0 to +50 °C ambient. Under Light Overload (LO) it delivers 75 kW with 150 % for 3 s, 110 % for 57 s, 100 % for 240 s at 0 to +40 °C. These duty cycles define the actual motor load it can handle during acceleration and deceleration without tripping. The PM250 supports regeneration — it can feed braking energy back to the line, which eliminates the need for an external braking resistor in applications with frequent deceleration or overhauling loads.
Active production — a standard BOM line
Siemens lists this power module as Active with a mature lifecycle stage, meaning it is a current-production catalog item with no announced end-of-life. It is manufactured to order (Product class C,), so lead time and pricing are confirmed at RFQ against the specific BOM quantity. The drive ships in a single-piece package measuring 1,200 x 400 x 620 mm. The packaging dimensions matter for logistics planning — this is a large, heavy unit that requires a pallet and a lift gate for delivery.
Compliance documentation for regulatory filing
RoHS compliance is confirmed since 18-05-16. The REACH Article 33 declaration notes lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1 % w/w in the candidate list — this is a standard disclosure for power electronics with lead-bearing solder joints and does not restrict sale or installation. Export control classification is AL: N / ECCN: 9N9999, meaning no special license is required for most industrial destinations.
