Key tips for selection and ordering

Key points for G130 selection

Power matching: Select the power module based on the rated power of the motor and the power supply voltage (e.g. 6SL3310-1GE32-1AA3 for 380V 110kW)

Component matching: The incoming reactor needs to be selected based on the RSC value (relative short-circuit capacity), and RSC>corresponding threshold must be configured (such as RSC ≤ 43 for<200kW)

Key points for G150 selection

Cabinet selection: For existing MCC, choose C-type cabinet, and for expansion options, choose A-type cabinet

Parallel cabinet: For power>800kW (690V), a parallel cabinet should be selected (such as 6SL3710-2GH42-7EA3 for 2700kW)

Option combination: Emergency stop options (L45/L57) need to be paired with power disconnect components (L13/L26)
