Siemens 6SL3100-0BE21-6AB0 SINAMICS S120 16 kW Active Interface Module
Booksize Active Interface Module matched to the 16 kW SINAMICS S120 Active Line Module.
01Product Profile
Siemens 6SL3100-0BE21-6AB0 is a booksize Active Interface Module for the 16 kW SINAMICS S120 Active Line Module. It is designed for 380 to 480 V three-phase line supplies and carries 26 A rated input current. The module combines the line reactor and filter functions required by the assigned Active Line Module and uses internal air cooling in an IP20 cabinet-mount enclosure.

03System Role
Control Function
- Installed between the three-phase line supply and the assigned Active Line Module.
- Works with Active Line Module 6SL3130-7TE21-6AA4 in the documented 16 kW pairing.
- Reduces line-side harmonics and supports the active infeed system when installed as specified.
- Requires 24 V DC electronics power as part of the complete S120 line connection.
- Operates as a system component rather than as a standalone power converter.
Key Capabilities
- Provides the Active Interface function for the assigned 16 kW Active Line Module.
- Combines line-side filtering and reactor functions in the S120 active-infeed path.
- Carries 26 A rated input current on 380 to 480 V three-phase supplies.
- Uses a compact 100 mm booksize width.
- Provides internal air cooling with a documented 0.030 cubic metre per second airflow.
- Includes a line-side connector and an M5 protective-earth connection.
04Compatibility
- Match the exact 16 kW Active Line Module article and the full S120 system configuration.
- Confirm the 380 to 480 V three-phase line, 26 A current class and upstream protective devices.
- Use the documented connector, conductor cross-section and M5 PE connection.
- Provide the specified airflow, cabinet clearances and cooling direction.
- Follow Siemens replacement instructions and observe the DC-link discharge time before touching connections.
- Do not substitute a 36, 80 or 120 kW Active Interface Module solely by product family name.
05Applications
- 16 kW SINAMICS S120 active-infeed drive systems.
- Compact booksize multi-axis cabinets using regenerative Active Line Modules.
- Machine-tool and production-machine line connections requiring the exact 16 kW pairing.
- Maintenance replacement of an installed 6SL3100-0BE21-6AB0.
- New drive cabinets engineered around the 100 mm-wide Active Interface Module.
