Siemens 6SL3120-1TE13-0AD0 SINAMICS S120 3 A D-Type Single Motor Module
The active D-type 3 A Motor Module with extended frequency data, terminal connection and DRIVE-CLiQ cable.
01Key Information
Siemens 6SL3120-1TE13-0AD0 is the active D-type 3 A SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module. It provides a 3 A rated output from a 510 to 720 V DC link, supports extended Safety Integrated functions and includes a DRIVE-CLiQ cable. Its D-type data sheet distinguishes it from the AA3 and AA4 generations through the terminal connection, 4.0 A S6 current, 4.6 kg net weight and published servo, V/f and vector output-frequency limits.
02Functions
Documented Functions
- Feeds a single motor with a controlled 400 V three-phase output from the S120 DC link.
- Provides 3.0 A rated, 2.6 A base-load, 4.0 A S6 and 9.0 A maximum current.
- Supports servo, V/f and vector control with documented output-frequency limits.
- Supports extended Safety Integrated functions to SIL 2, PL d and Category 3.
- Provides a 1.5 to 6 mm2 motor-side terminal connection.
- Uses internal air cooling and includes the required DRIVE-CLiQ cable.

04Installation
- Confirm that the project and cabinet arrangement support the D-type AD0 hardware.
- Use conductors within the documented 1.5 to 6 mm2 motor-terminal range and the M5 PE point.
- Keep the motor cable within 50 m shielded or 75 m unshielded.
- Maintain at least the specified 0.009 m3/s cooling airflow and the 0 to 40 degrees C operating range.
- Check high-output-frequency licensing and current derating before using frequencies above the standard project limit.
- Commission the motor, encoder, brake, control mode and all configured safety functions under a documented acceptance test.
05Lifecycle
- Siemens lists 6SL3120-1TE13-0AD0 as a PM300 active product.
- The article is the D-type 3 A variant and should be ordered with its complete AD0 suffix.
- It may be evaluated for service replacement of earlier 3 A modules only after hardware, connector and project compatibility checks.
- Keep the DRIVE-CLiQ topology, firmware baseline, motor data and safety checksum in the service record.
- Review current Siemens documentation before any future retrofit or high-frequency application.
