Product Description:
The SM 6.5/30-GC16 AC inverter is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the SM AC Inverters series. The unit operates as a power stage that conditions the common DC bus. It delivers variable-frequency output to control asynchronous or servo motors used in conveyors, packaging frames, and pick-and-place modules. This layout supports motion systems that need regulated motor speed and torque from a shared electrical source.
It uses a direct-coupled intermediate circuit rated at 325 V DC, giving the inverter a stable energy reserve for rapid torque demands. For thermal management, the continuous current limit is 6.5 A when natural convection keeps the rotor above 50 rpm, and it rises to 15 A when a fan is added in the same speed range. During short accelerations, the drive can supply a peak of 30 A for up to five seconds, allowing machines to overcome static friction or reach set speed quickly. Output switching is handled by a control card operating at 5 kHz, which balances acoustic noise with semiconductor losses and shapes the motor voltage waveform.
System integration is supported by the galvanically isolated CAN Bus interface and by a dedicated RS-232 service port for setup and diagnostics. These connections let the inverter exchange control data with the machine network while still providing a direct local link for parameter access and troubleshooting. The inverter maintains full ratings at installation altitudes up to 1000 m and follows the 3K3 climate category, so it tolerates typical control cabinet humidity and temperature ranges without additional sealing. Heat generated by the power stage is limited to 13 W during nominal operation, which eases enclosure ventilation requirements and helps keep surrounding components from being exposed to unnecessary thermal load. The electronics are enclosed in an IP20 housing that helps prevent accidental finger contact while still allowing airflow across the heat sink fins, and the unit has a total mass of 2.4 kg for mounting on DIN rails or narrow panels.
