Siemens 6SL3100-1CE14-0AA0 SINAMICS S120 Capacitor Module
A 4000 uF booksize DC-link capacitor module for bridging momentary power interruptions in SINAMICS S120 systems.
01Key Information
Siemens 6SL3100-1CE14-0AA0 is a SINAMICS S120 Capacitor Module that increases the capacitance of the common DC link. Siemens specifies it for bridging momentary power interruptions, with autonomous operation after connection to the integrated DC-link busbars. Multiple Capacitor Modules may be operated in parallel when the engineered DC-link assembly, protective earth and cabinet arrangement meet the applicable SINAMICS requirements.
02Functions
Documented Functions
- Adds 4000 uF of capacitance to the SINAMICS S120 DC link.
- Helps bridge short-duration supply interruptions by supporting the DC-link energy reserve.
- Connects through two integrated DC-link busbar connections.
- Operates autonomously without a separate control interface.
- Supports parallel operation of multiple Capacitor Modules in an engineered booksize lineup.
- Provides two protective-earth connection points for the documented cabinet arrangement.

04Installation
- Isolate and discharge the DC link according to the SINAMICS S120 power-unit manual before any work.
- Confirm that the engineered DC-link voltage remains within 510 to 720 V DC.
- Install the supplied spacer and preserve the documented 100 x 380 x 270 mm mechanical envelope.
- Connect the integrated DC-link busbars and both PE points exactly as specified for the booksize assembly.
- Check the cumulative 100 A DC-link and 20 A 24 V busbar loading when modules are arranged in a shared lineup.
- For parallel Capacitor Modules, verify the complete DC-link design, short-circuit protection and cabinet clearances before energization.
05Lifecycle
- Siemens currently lists 6SL3100-1CE14-0AA0 as a PM300 active product.
- The exact capacitance, busbar ratings and article number must be preserved when adding or replacing a module.
- A Capacitor Module is a DC-link component and must not be treated as a Line Module, Braking Module or Motor Module.
- Retain the cabinet layout, DC-link discharge procedure and protective-earth documentation with the system records.
- Future replacement planning should use the complete article number and current SINAMICS configuration documentation.
