Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can the 6SE6420-2UD21-5AA1 control a single-phase motor?
A: No. This drive requires a 3-phase input and outputs 3-phase power. For single-phase motor control, refer to the MICROMASTER 410 series.
Q: What is the maximum cable length between drive and motor?
A: SIEMENS recommends ≤ 50 m unshielded or ≤ 25 m shielded without output reactor. For longer runs, install a SIEMENS output reactor (dU/dt filter) to protect motor insulation.
Q: Is a line reactor required on the input?
A: Not mandatory for this power rating, but recommended when supply impedance is low (< 1%) or when multiple drives share a common bus to reduce harmonic distortion.
Q: Can I use this drive with a permanent magnet (PM) motor?
A: The MM420 supports V/f and FCC control modes only; it does not support sensorless vector control for PM motors. For PM motor applications, specify the SINAMICS G120 series.
Q: How do I reset the drive to factory defaults?
A: Set parameter P0010 = 30, then P0970 = 1. The drive will reset all parameters to factory defaults within approximately 10 seconds.
Q: Is this part compatible with SIMATIC S7 PLCs?
A: Yes. Via USS protocol over RS-485 natively, or via PROFIBUS DP with the optional 6SE6400-1PB00-0AA0 comms module. Full GSD file available from SIEMENS Industry Online Support.
