Description
About the 6SL3120-1TE22-4AC0
About the 6SL3120-1TE22-4AC0
The Siemens 6SL3120-1TE22-4AC0 is a SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module converting a 510-720 V DC link to a 3 AC 400 V output at 24.0 A rated current (12.9 kW), built in the booksize C-Type frame with internal air cooling. It ships with a DRIVE-CLIQ cable and supports the extended Safety Integrated functions for single-axis motor control.
Selection Notes
The C-Type frame caps output current at Imax 48.0 A, roughly half the D-Type variant's 72.0 A peak — pick this module when the driven axis runs consistently near the 24.0 A rated / 20.4 A base-load current and does not need the wider overload margin. Its optimized pulse sample supports the extended Safety Integrated functions, so it fits single-axis servo applications that require safe torque-off or safe limited speed on the same drive line.
