Siemens 6SL3210-1PE23-8AL0 SINAMICS PM240-2 Power Module
A 400 V-class PM240-2 rated for 18.5 kW low-overload or 15 kW high-overload service.
Product Overview
6SL3210-1PE23-8AL0 is a frame-size FSD SINAMICS PM240-2 power module. It combines a Class A input filter and an integrated braking chopper for modular G120 drive systems.
The unit accepts three-phase 380 to 480 V input power and requires a compatible control unit with firmware V4.7 HF8 or later.
Performance
- Provides 18.5 kW low-overload motor duty in ambient temperatures from -20 to +40 °C.
- Supports 15 kW high-overload applications at temperatures from -20 to +50 °C.
- Handles the specified short-time overload profile for acceleration and intermittent torque demand.
- Uses 0.055 m³/s forced airflow to cool the larger FSD power stage.
- Meets the IE2 efficiency-class designation stated for the article.

System Integration
- Combine the power module with a released SINAMICS control unit selected for the required communication and safety functions.
- Match the external braking resistor and its protection to the stopping cycle rather than to motor power alone.
- Provide the FSD cabinet space, lifting access and ventilation path before scheduling the exchange.
- Verify the line-side protection, EMC bonding and motor-cable installation against the complete drive design.
- Restore a validated parameter set only after confirming the fitted control-unit firmware and the motor rating plate.
Applications
- Conveyors and material-handling systems with intermittent acceleration torque.
- Pumps and fans requiring an 18.5 kW low-overload drive stage.
- Process machinery that uses dynamic braking with an external resistor.
- Modular SINAMICS G120 panels that require a Class A filtered FSD power module.
FAQ
What power ratings apply to 6SL3210-1PE23-8AL0?
It is rated for 18.5 kW low-overload duty or 15 kW high-overload duty.
Does this article contain an input filter?
Yes. The AL0 configuration includes a Class A filter.
Which control-unit firmware is required?
The released combination requires firmware V4.7 HF8 or later.
Is the power module a complete converter by itself?
No. A compatible control unit is required for control and communication.
What should be checked before replacing an FSD unit?
Confirm the full order number, motor duty, braking circuit, cabinet dimensions, airflow and control-unit parameter backup.
Can the low-overload temperature limit be applied to high-overload service?
No. Use the temperature range stated for the selected duty class.
