Siemens 6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0 SINAMICS S120 45 A C-Type Motor Module
Active 45 A C-type module with 90 A peak current in a compact 100 mm booksize housing.
01Overview
Siemens 6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0 is the active 45 A C-type Single Motor Module in the SINAMICS S120 booksize range. It provides 38 A base-load current, 60 A S6 current and 90 A peak current from a 510 to 720 V DC link. The C-type design reduces the width to 100 mm and changes the thermal design compared with the older 5AA3 article. Its lower typical power loss and smaller footprint are model-specific characteristics and must not be copied back to the legacy module.

- Fits a 100 mm-wide cabinet position, 50 mm narrower than the older AA3 article.
- Uses a 1,230 µF DC-link capacitance for the exact C-type hardware.
- Reduces the typical power-loss value to 0.34 kW.
- Supports optimized pulse patterns and extended Safety Integrated functions.
- Includes a DRIVE-CLiQ cable for integration with the S120 Control Unit.
Identification
- Manufacturer: Siemens
- Model: 6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0
- Product Type: SINAMICS S120 booksize C-type Single Motor Module
- Status: Active product
04Applications
- Current 45 A S120 axes whose load cycle fits a 90 A peak-current limit.
- Space-sensitive cabinet upgrades requiring a 100 mm module width.
- Motor installations using up to 100 m of shielded motor cable.
- Migration from a 45 A AA3 position after mechanical and connection redesign.
- Multi-axis systems where DC-link, 24 V bus and thermal loading are calculated for the complete row.
05Lifecycle
- Siemens lists 6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0 as an active product.
- It is the official successor path for the legacy 6SL3120-1TE24-5AA3.
- Migration requires review of the 150 mm-to-100 mm width change and cabinet mounting.
- Compare peak current, capacitance, airflow, power loss, motor connection and firmware recognition.
- Complete controlled commissioning and Safety Integrated acceptance testing after installation.
06FAQ
What peak current does the 45 A C-type article provide?
The official data sheet specifies 90.0 A peak current.
How does the AC0 width compare with the AA3 predecessor?
The AC0 is 100 mm wide, while the AA3 data sheet specifies 150 mm.
Which DC-link capacitance belongs to this exact model?
6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0 is documented with 1,230 µF.
What cooling-air requirement should the cabinet provide?
Siemens specifies 0.023 m³/s for the C-type module.
Is 6SL3120-1TE24-5AC0 an active article?
Yes. Siemens lists the exact article as an active product.
What must be reviewed when replacing 5AA3 with 5AC0?
Check mounting width, DC-link alignment, motor termination, overload profile, airflow, firmware and the Safety Integrated project.
