Single phase — 3 HP Siemens V20 AC Drive
Siemens V20 AC drive, single-phase input, 3 HP / 2.2 kW.
Overview
This is a Siemens V20 variable frequency drive (model 6SL3210-5BB22-2UV0), rated 3 HP / 2.2 kW, taking a single-phase AC supply (200-240 V AC, 47-63 Hz) and outputting three-phase power to run a standard induction motor at variable speed. Rated input current is 27.2 A, output current 11 A - frame size C, cooled by a single fan.
It takes a 150% overload for 60 seconds, covers an output frequency range of 0 to 550 Hz, and offers linear, quadratic and multi-point V/f control plus flux current control (FCC), set up from its own built-in keypad with connection and application macros or over an RS-485 port running USS or Modbus RTU.
At 2.2 kW this suits a mid-size spindle or general-purpose motor on a single-phase supply. The single-phase V20 range tops out at 4 HP / 3.0 kW in this catalogue; beyond that, the three-phase-input V20 drives (6SL3210-5BE series, 4 HP up to 10 HP) take over. Below it, the 1 HP and 2 HP models cover lighter loads.
The V20 is a genuine Siemens product, not a Tiny Controls design - it is supplied, not assembled or designed, in India.

Questions
What size motor or load does this suit?
Rated 3 HP / 2.2 kW output, 11 A output current — a mid-size spindle or general-purpose motor on a single-phase supply.
How is it programmed — keypad, or a PC?
Either: the built-in keypad (with connection and application macros), or remotely over an RS-485 port running USS or Modbus RTU.
What if I need more or less power?
The single-phase V20 range tops out at 4 HP / 3.0 kW in this catalogue — that model steps up further; below it, the 1 HP and 2 HP models cover lighter loads. Beyond 3.0 kW, only the three-phase-input drives (6SL3210-5BE series, 4 HP up to 10 HP) go further.
