01
Key Information
6SL3210-1PE23-3UL0 is the unfiltered FSC version of the SINAMICS PM240-2 modular power stage. It is rated for 15 kW low-overload duty or 11 kW high-overload duty on a three-phase 380 to 480 V supply.
The module includes a braking chopper but no integrated input filter. EMC compliance therefore depends on the engineered external measures, cable arrangement and installation environment.
02
Functions
- Delivers variable-frequency motor power under the control of a compatible SINAMICS G120 control unit.
- Supports the documented low- and high-overload profiles for general and higher-torque applications.
- Routes braking energy to an external resistor through the built-in chopper when the application requires dynamic braking.
- Allows longer motor-cable configurations within the separate limits stated for shielded and unshielded cables.
- Provides an unfiltered power stage for installations where EMC filtering is engineered elsewhere in the system.

04
Installation
- Define the EMC concept before installation because the UL0 article does not contain an input filter.
- Keep shielded and unshielded motor cables within their respective length limits and terminate shields with low impedance.
- Provide the specified FSC ventilation clearances and verify cabinet heat removal for the selected duty class.
- Select the external braking resistor from the motor inertia, stopping time and permissible chopper duty.
- Confirm the control-unit firmware, line protection and 6–16 mm² power-terminal conductor range before wiring.
05
Lifecycle
- The complete UL0 suffix is essential because it identifies the unfiltered configuration.
- A like-for-like review should compare frame size, overload duty, input-filter arrangement, control-unit firmware and braking hardware.
- Retain the parameter backup and motor data with the service record even though they reside in the control-unit configuration.
- Use the current Siemens article documentation available for this exact order number when planning future service.
