Siemens 6SL3210-1PE23-3AL0 SINAMICS PM240-2 Power Module
A frame-size FSC PM240-2 power module with Class A filtering and an integrated braking chopper.
Key Information
6SL3210-1PE23-3AL0 is a SINAMICS PM240-2 power module for modular G120 drive assemblies. It accepts a three-phase 380 to 480 V supply and is rated for 15 kW low-overload or 11 kW high-overload operation.
The AL0 configuration includes a Class A input filter and an internal braking chopper. A compatible control unit supplies the control, communication and application functions.
Functions
- Supplies variable-frequency motor power for modular SINAMICS G120 installations.
- Accommodates demanding acceleration duty through the documented high-overload profile.
- Switches regenerative energy to an engineered external braking resistor through the integrated chopper.
- Provides the filtered power-stage configuration required by the AL0 article.
- Uses forced-air cooling sized for the FSC enclosure and its 15 kW low-overload rating.

Installation
- Provide the FSC mounting space and cooling clearance specified for vertical panel installation.
- Select line protection, conductor size, shielding and braking-resistor hardware for the actual motor current and duty cycle.
- Fit a released control unit with firmware V4.6 or later and restore only a parameter set verified for this exact power module.
- Bond the shield and protective conductor using the prescribed low-impedance cabinet arrangement.
- Check that cabinet temperature remains within the limit for the chosen low- or high-overload rating.
Lifecycle
- Siemens lists 6SL3210-1PE23-3AL0 as an active product.
- The AL0 suffix distinguishes this filtered unit from similarly rated unfiltered PM240-2 articles.
- Store the control-unit parameter backup separately from the power module because the two components have different service roles.
- For retrofit work, compare frame size, filter class, supply tolerance, braking duty and firmware compatibility before installation.
