The Siemens 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 belongs to the SINAMICS G110 series. This AC drive is designed for basic variable speed control. It operates with a single-phase input of 200–240V AC at 47–63 Hz. The rated input current is 10.00 A.
On the output side, it provides three-phase power. The rated output power is 0.75 kW. Its continuous output current (IN) stands at 3.90 A. Additionally, the pulse frequency is set to 8 kHz by default. For V/f control, the output frequency ranges from 0 to 650 Hz. However, legal restrictions limit it to 550 Hz in production models.
The 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 uses a V/f linear, square-law, or parametrizable control technique. Therefore, it handles both constant torque and variable torque loads effectively. The drive also includes a built-in RS485 communication port for basic networking.

This drive complies with UL, cUL, CE, and C-Tick (RCM) standards. It also meets the low-voltage directive 2006/95/EC for CE marking.
The Siemens 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 has an IP20 protection rating. It is also listed as UL open type. The frame size is FSA. Its net weight is only 0.90 kg, with a gross weight of 1.10 kg for shipping.
Dimensions are as follows:
Width: 90.0 mm
Height: 150.0 mm
Depth: 131.0 mm
For installation, the maximum altitude is 1,000 m without derating. The operating ambient temperature ranges from -10 °C to +40 °C. Storage temperature can be between -40 °C and +70 °C. Furthermore, the maximum relative humidity during operation is 95%, but condensation is not permitted.
First, mount the drive vertically on a flat, non-flammable surface. Ensure at least 100 mm of free space above and below for cooling airflow. Next, use shielded motor cables to reduce electromagnetic interference.
For the input supply, connect a single-phase 200–240V AC line to terminals L and N. Then connect a three-phase motor to the U, V, and W output terminals. Additionally, use the integrated digital inputs for start/stop and speed setpoint selection. The analog input accepts a 0–10V reference signal.
Finally, set the parameters via the basic operator panel or RS485 communication. Remember to configure the V/f characteristic according to your load type.

1. Can I use the 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 with a single-phase motor?
No. This drive outputs three-phase power. It is designed for three-phase induction motors only.
2. What happens if I exceed the 40°C ambient temperature limit?
Performance derating is required above 40°C. Otherwise, the drive may overheat and reduce output current.
3. Does the Siemens 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 support Modbus RTU?
Yes, it supports RS485 communication. You can configure Modbus RTU protocols via parameters.
4. How do I reset the drive to factory defaults?
Set parameter P0010 to 30 and P0970 to 1. Then the Siemens 6SL3211-0AB17-5BA1 will restore factory settings.
5. Is an external line reactor necessary for this drive?
For most installations, no. However, if the supply network is weak or highly distorted, an external reactor is recommended.
