What this PM240M power module is and where it fits
The Siemens 6SL3517-1BE13-3AM0 is a SINAMICS G110M Power Module PM240M with an integrated Class A EMC filter, rated for 380-480 VAC three-phase input at 47-63 Hz. It delivers 1.1 kW under high-overload duty: 200% for 3 seconds, 150% for 57 seconds, and 100% for 240 seconds — the kind of torque profile you need for a conveyor start or a centrifuge spin-up. The IP65 enclosure means this module lives directly on the machine, not in a cabinet, so it handles washdown environments on food-and-bev or packaging lines. Frame size FSA, 135 x 161 x 270 mm (HxWxD). Note: this is the power module only — no Control Unit included; you pair it with a CU via the SD/MMC card slot.
Integration notes for the panel builder
Mounts directly on the machine frame via the FSA footprint — no DIN rail, no backplate. The IP65 rating means the module itself is the enclosure; cable glands go straight into the housing. The integrated Class A filter covers conducted emissions for the European market, so you skip an external filter in most installations. Ambient temperature range is -10 to +55 °C. The SD/MMC card slot holds parameter backups and firmware — useful for cloning settings across multiple drives on the same line.
