01Product Identification
Siemens 6SL3120-1TE22-4AC0 is a 24 A booksize C-type Single Motor Module for SINAMICS S120. It supplies one motor axis from a 510 to 720 V DC link and is rated for 20.4 A base-load current, 32 A S6 current and 48 A peak current. The C-type overload class distinguishes it from 6SL3120-1TE22-4AD0, whose peak-current value is 72 A. The 50 mm module includes optimized pulse patterns, extended Safety Integrated support and a DRIVE-CLiQ cable.

03Functions
Module Functions
- Provides the C-type twofold peak-current profile of 48 A.
- Supports a 32 A S6 current at the documented 40 percent duty.
- Carries 29 A DC-link current for external DC-connection sizing.
- Uses a 390 µF DC-link capacitance within the motor-module design.
- Supports extended Safety Integrated functions to the listed system performance levels.
- Maintains a narrow 50 mm footprint while delivering a 12.9 kW type rating at rated current.

04Applications
Typical Engineering Use
- S120 axes with substantial continuous load and a peak-current requirement no higher than 48 A.
- Material-handling or process axes whose duty matches the 24 A C-type profile.
- Multi-axis cabinets where a 50 mm module width is important.
- Machine upgrades that require current C-type electronics and DRIVE-CLiQ integration.
- Industrial motor control using the documented servo, vector or V/f operating ranges.
Compatibility Boundary
- Use the exact 4AC0 suffix when the C-type overload profile is intended.
- Do not transfer the 72 A D-type peak value to this 48 A C-type article.
- Respect the exact data-sheet cable limits of 50 m shielded and 75 m unshielded.
- Verify X1 motor connector, 1.5 to 6 mm² conductors and M5 protective-earth connection.
- Check Control Unit firmware, motor data, feedback, safety project and 24 V distribution.
- Provide 0.015 m³/s airflow and account for the stated 68 dB sound-pressure level.
05Lifecycle
- Siemens lists 6SL3120-1TE22-4AC0 as an active product.
- It is the current C-type choice for a 24 A internal-air-cooled Single Motor Module.
- Where 72 A peak current is required, compare the D-type 6SL3120-1TE22-4AD0 instead.
- Keep the exact current profile and cable limits in the machine documentation.
- After installation, validate load cycles, thermal operation, current limits, feedback and Safety Integrated functions.
