The Siemens 6SL3210-1KE17-5AB1 is a SINAMICS G120C compact inverter for 3-phase 380–480 V supplies. It is rated 3.0 kW in low-overload duty and 2.2 kW in high-overload duty, with an integrated Class A filter, integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) and USS/Modbus RTU fieldbus. The G120C packs power section, control and I/O into one compact housing (frame size FSA, just 73 mm wide), making it a space-saving drive for conveyors, pumps, fans, mixers and general machinery. This version is Siemens’ successor to the discontinued 6SL3210-1KE17-5AB0.
