Siemens 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 SINAMICS S120 PM340 18.5 kW Power Module
A 38 A filtered FSD power stage for modular SINAMICS S120 drive systems, with 15 kW high-overload power capability.
Overview
6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 is a Siemens SINAMICS S120 PM340 Power Module for three-phase 380 to 480 V systems. It provides 38 A rated output current and 18.5 kW rated motor power in a FSD blocksize enclosure.
The 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 configuration is a filtered AA0 version. Its 15 kW high-overload rating, 64 A maximum output current and external braking-resistor connection distinguish the exact power-stage selection.

Features
- Delivers 38 A rated output current with 49 A for S6 duty at 40% and 64 A maximum output current.
- Integrated line filter in the AA0 version must be preserved when matching the installed cabinet design.
- Internal air cooling requires 54.9 l/s while the documented sound pressure remains below 60 dB(A).
- The PM340 braking circuit supports an external resistor greater than 27 ω with a maximum 15 m connection cable.
- The FSD mechanical format separates 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 from adjacent PM340 current ratings.
Applications
- 18.5 kW drive axes with a 15 kW high-overload profile.
- Machines requiring 15 kW high-overload motor sizing and a 33 A base-current profile.
- Modular SINAMICS S120 single-axis drive systems controlled by a compatible Control Unit.
- Retrofit work where the installed cabinet is engineered for the FSD PM340 format and the AA0 filtered variant.
Lifecycle
- Retain the full 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 order number because the final suffix identifies the filtered AA0 construction.
- Confirm current Siemens spare-part availability and any migration recommendation before replacing this legacy PM340 order number.
- Match 18.5 kW, 38 A, FSD, line-filter status and braking-resistor requirements rather than selecting only by motor power.
- Back up the Control Unit parameter set and record motor, line reactor, protection and EMC details before exchanging the power stage.
- Recommission the drive and verify motor direction, current limits, braking behavior and protective functions after replacement.
FAQ
How does 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 differ from the 32 A PM340 version?
6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 uses the larger FSD format and provides 38 A rated current, 49 A S6 current and 64 A maximum output current.
What motor powers are documented for 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0?
6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 is rated at 18.5 kW, with 15 kW based on the high-overload current profile.
Is 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0 a filtered power module?
Yes. Its AA0 suffix identifies the integrated line filter.
What input-current values apply to 6SL3210-1SE23-8AA0?
The rated input current is 40 A with a line reactor and 46 A without one under the documented conditions.
