Siemens 6SL3201-2AD20-8VA0 SINAMICS V20 Braking Module 400V/230V VFD Braking Module

The Siemens 6SL3201-2AD20-8VA0 is a SINAMICS V20 braking module rated 380-480 V 3AC input / 200-240 V output, housed in a compact 90 x 150 x 88 mm (W x H x D) enclosure weighing 0.7 kg. It supports a duty cycle from 5% to 100%, allowing continuous energy dissipation in SINAMICS V20 applications with frequent braking cycles.

Technical Specifications

Selection Notes

The 5-100% duty cycle rating means this module can handle continuous braking duty, not just occasional stops - relevant for hoists, centrifuges, or unwind/rewind axes on a SINAMICS V20 drive where the motor regenerates energy frequently. Match the 380-480 V 3AC input rating to the drive's line voltage class before ordering; a 200 V class V20 drive requires the corresponding lower-voltage braking module variant.

Applications

Pairs with SINAMICS V20 drives on 380-480 V 3AC supplies to dissipate regenerative energy from decelerating loads such as hoists, winders, and centrifuges.
