6SL3210-1PE27-5AL0 Siemens SINAMICS G120 POWER MODULE PM240-2 Original Brand New

PM240‑2 Power Modules – 0.55 kW to 250 kW (0.75 hp to 400 hp), IP20 degree of protection

PM240‑2 Power Modules, frame sizes FSA to FSG (with Control Unit and Operator Panel)

The PM240‑2 Power Modules are based on a new hardware platform. This permits an increase in power density as well as the application of innovative cooling concepts (push-through technology) with especially high requirements in terms of control cabinet cooling.

Furthermore, the PM240-2 Power Module is also suitable for use in safety-oriented applications. In conjunction with a fail-safe Control Unit, the drive can be transformed into a Safety Integrated Drive (see section Control Units).

The PM240‑2 Power Modules in frame sizes FSA to FSF are available both with and without an integrated line filter class A of compact design for 200 V, 400 V and 690 V line voltages (except PM240‑2 frame sizes FSD to FSF: 200 V). The PM240‑2 Power Modules in frame size FSG are available with an integrated line filter Category C3 of compact design for 400 V and 690 V line voltages, also with integrated line filter Category C2 for a line voltage of 400 V. In addition, a DC link reactor is integrated in the PM240‑2 Power Modules, frame sizes FSD to FSG, and therefore no line reactor is required.

The PM240-2 Power Modules with integrated line filter class A are suitable for connection to TN supply systems. Power Modules without integrated line filter can be connected to grounded TN/TT systems and non-grounded IT systems.

The PM240‑2 Power Module has an integrated braking chopper. In generating mode, the excess energy of the DC link can be dissipated by means of an optional braking resistor.

The permissible cable lengths between converter and motor are limited (for max. permissible cable lengths, see Integration). Longer cables can be used if output reactors are connected (see section Load-side power components).

Push-through variant

Example: PM240‑2 Power Modules, degree of protection IP20, push-through variant, frame sizes FSD to FSF (with Control Unit and Operator Panel)

The push-through variants in the frame sizes FSA to FSF allow the cooling fins of the Power Modules to be pushed through the rear panel of the control cabinet. Push-through variants should be used in applications where the amount of power loss generated inside the control cabinet itself must be minimized.

Shield plates and shield connection kits are available for use in the wiring installation of Control Units and Power Modules to ensure that it complies with EMC guidelines.
For more information, see Shield connection kits for Control Units and Power Modules in section Supplementary system components.

PM250 Power Modules – 7.5 kW to 90 kW (10 hp to 125 hp), IP20 degree of protection

PM250 Power Modules, frame sizes FSC to FSF

PM250 Power Modules are suitable for a large number of applications in general mechanical engineering. Any braking energy is directly fed back into the line supply (four-quadrant applications – a braking chopper is not required).

The PM250 Power Module features an absolutely unique technology – Efficient Infeed Technology. This feature provides the ability to feed energy back into the supply system in the generator mode (electronic braking) so that the energy is not converted into heat in a braking resistor. This saves space in the control cabinet. The time-consuming process of dimensioning the braking resistor and the expense of the extra wiring are eliminated. Furthermore, heat losses in the control cabinet are reduced.

Further, the innovative circuit design reduces the line harmonics. There is no need to use an optional line reactor at the supply infeed. This saves space and costs for engineering and procurement.

The permissible cable lengths between converter and motor are limited (for max. permissible cable lengths, see Integration). Longer cables can be used if output reactors are connected (see section Load-side power components).

Frame sizes FSD to FSF of the PM250 Power Modules are available both with as well as without integrated line filter class A.

For frame size FSC of the PM250 Power Module with an integrated line filter class A, an additional base filter of class B is available for achieving class B (see section Line-side components).

The PM250 Power Module is also designed for safety-oriented applications. In conjunction with a fail-safe Control Unit, the drive can be transformed into a Safety Integrated Drive (see section Control Units).

The PM250 Power Modules with integrated line filter class A are suitable for connection to TN supply systems. Power Modules without integrated line filter can be connected to grounded TN/TT systems and non-grounded IT systems.

All Power Modules have the following connections and interfaces:

• PM‑IF interface to connect the Power Module to the Control Unit. The Power Module also supplies power to the Control Unit using an integrated power supply
• Motor connection using screw-type terminals or screw studs
• 2 PE/protective conductor connections
• Shield connection plate

Power and DC link components that are optionally available depending on the Power Module used

The following line-side components, DC link components and load-side power components are optionally available in the appropriate frames sizes for the Power Modules:

U = Base component

S = Lateral mounting

I = Integrated

F = Power Modules available with and without integrated filter class A

– = Not possible

1. The 200 V versions of the PM240‑2 Power Modules, frame sizes FSD to FSF, are only available without integrated line filter.
2. There are no optional output reactors available for 690 V versions of PM240-2 Power Modules, frame sizes FSD and FSE.
3. Lateral mounting is the only possible option for push-through variants.
4. The 690 V versions of the PM240‑2 Power Modules frame size FSG are only available with an integrated Category C3 filter. To operate the converter also within TN systems with grounded outer conductor, you must remove the grounding screw.
5. With the appropriate wiring, the line reactors for 200 V 3 AC can be used for the 200 V versions for 200 V 1 AC.
6. For frame sizes FSA to FSC, for lines with u_k < 1 %, it is recommended that you use a line reactor or the next more powerful Power Module.
7. A line reactor is not required and must not be used in conjunction with a PM250 Power Module.
8. A PM250 Power Module is capable of line-commutated energy feedback. A braking resistor cannot be connected and is not necessary.
9. The 690 V versions of the PM240‑2 Power Modules require motors with a suitable isolating system for 690 V converter operation (IVIC‑C premium). The VSD10 line with corresponding SIMOTICS GP 1LE109 General Purpose motors or SIMOTICS SD 1LE159 Severe Duty motors is ideally suited for converter operation at 690 V. More information is available in Catalog D 81.1.

General design information

Converter comprising a Power Module (PM), a Control Unit (CU), and base components (side view)

• If at all possible, the line filter should be mounted directly below the converter ¹⁾.
• With lateral mounting, the line-side components have to be mounted on the left side of the converter, and the load-side
  components on the right side.
• Braking resistors have to be mounted directly on the control cabinet wall due to heating issues.

Recommended installation combinations of the converter and optional power and DC link components

¹⁾ With the PM250 Power Module, frame size FSC, the output reactor and sine-wave filter can be installed as base components. The output reactor or sine-wave filter should be mounted under the line filter.

Maximum permissible cable lengths from the motor to the converter when using output reactors, dv/dt filters plus VPL or filters depending on the voltage range and the Power Module being used

1. The values apply with low-capacitance CY cables – the max. permissible motor cable length is 50 m (164 ft) (shielded) and 100 m (328 ft) (unshielded) as standard.
2. For frame sizes FSD to FSG the maximum permissible cable lengths are not increased with an output reactor. By means of the output reactor, the loading of the motor windings is reduced by lower rates of voltage rise (dv/dt). By means of two output reactors connected in series, the maximum permissible cable lengths for frame sizes FSD and FSE are increased to 350 m (1148 ft) (shielded) and 525 m (1723 ft) (unshielded), and for frame sizes FSF and FSG to 525 m (1723 ft) (shielded) and 800 m (2625 ft) (unshielded). There are no optional output reactors available for 690 V versions of PM240-2 Power Modules, frame sizes FSD and FSE.
3. Maximum overvoltage at the motor terminals <1350 V with cable lengths up to 450 m (1476 ft) shielded or 650 m (2133 ft) unshielded – maximum overvoltage at the motor terminals <1500 V with cable lengths up to 525 m (1723 ft) shielded or 800 m (2625 ft) unshielded.
4. The values apply with low-capacitance CY cables – the max. permissible motor cable length is 50 m (164 ft) (shielded) as standard.
5. The 690 V versions of the PM240‑2 Power Modules frame size FSG are only available with an integrated Category C3 filter. To operate the converter also within TN systems with grounded outer conductor, you must remove the grounding screw.
6. Max. motor cable length 25 m (82 ft) (shielded) for Power Modules with integrated line filter to maintain the limit values acc. to EN 61800‑3 Category C2.
