Siemens 6SL3120-1TE13-0AD0 SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module 3A D-Type Drive Module

The Siemens 6SL3120-1TE13-0AD0 is a SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module in Booksize D-Type frame, rated for 3.0 A continuous current (IN) with a 9.0 A peak (Imax) and 1.6 kW power based on IN. It converts a 510-720 V DC link to 3-phase 400 V output, includes the DRIVE-CLiQ cable, and supports the Extended Safety Integrated functions.

Selection Notes

D-Type identifies the frame size within the SINAMICS S120 Booksize line, sized to this module's current class - 3.0 A continuous (IN) with a 9.0 A short-term peak. Choose this frame for an axis whose continuous load stays at or below 3.0 A / 1.6 kW; an axis needing more continuous current calls for a larger frame size in the same Booksize family rather than pushing this module past its base load current (IH) of 2.6 A. Internal air cooling keeps it within standard cabinet airflow (0.009 m³/s) rather than requiring liquid cooling. Because it supports the Extended Safety Integrated functions, it can implement drive-based safety (e.g. safe torque and speed monitoring) without external safety relays, which matters when the machine's safety concept relies on drive-integrated functions rather than hardwired E-stop chains. The included DRIVE-CLiQ cable removes one line item from the bill of materials versus modules sold cable-less.

Applications

Single-axis servo or spindle control within a modular, multi-axis SINAMICS S120 drive line sharing a common DC bus, such as machine tool axes or general motion cells where drive-integrated safety functions are part of the machine safety design.
