Siemens 6SL3120-1TE26-0AA3 SINAMICS S120 60 A Single Motor Module
Discontinued 60 A AA3 module with 113 A maximum current and an active AC0 successor.
01Overview
Siemens 6SL3120-1TE26-0AA3 is a 60 A internal-air-cooled SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module from the AA3 generation. The official data sheet specifies 52 A base-load current, 80 A S6 current and 113 A maximum current in a 150 mm-wide enclosure. Siemens states that the product was discontinued on 10 January 2025 and identifies 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 as the successor. The successor differs in width, base-load current, peak current, cooling and loss values, so its use requires a complete engineering comparison.

03Features
Product Functions
- Provides the AA3-specific 60 A / 113 A output-current profile.
- Supports 80 A S6 current at the documented 40 percent duty.
- Uses a 150 mm housing and 0.031 m³/s cooling-air requirement.
- Provides an M6 bolted motor connection for conductors up to 50 mm².
- Supports optimized pulse patterns and extended Safety Integrated functions.
- Integrates with the S120 control architecture through DRIVE-CLiQ.
Identification
- Manufacturer: Siemens
- Model: 6SL3120-1TE26-0AA3
- Product Type: Legacy SINAMICS S120 booksize Single Motor Module
- Status: Discontinued spare part
04Applications
- Exact spare replacement for installed 60 A AA3 motor-module positions.
- Legacy axes whose drive tuning uses the 52 A base-load and 113 A maximum-current values.
- Cabinets built around the 150 mm AA3 enclosure and original fan arrangement.
- Migration projects comparing the AA3 thermal design with the narrower AC0 successor.
- S120 systems where the complete hardware generation is maintained in the spare-parts record.
05Lifecycle
- Siemens lists the product as discontinued since 10 January 2025.
- The official successor is 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0.
- The AC0 successor is 100 mm wide and has 51 A base-load and 120 A peak-current values.
- Review busbar alignment, mounting, cooling, power loss, motor connection, firmware and safety behavior.
- After migration, verify current limits, thermal performance, motor control, diagnostics and Safety Integrated acceptance.
06FAQ
When was 6SL3120-1TE26-0AA3 discontinued?
Siemens lists 10 January 2025 as the effective discontinuation date.
Which successor is identified for the 60 A AA3 article?
Siemens identifies 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 as the successor.
What maximum current belongs to the AA3 generation?
The exact data sheet specifies 113.0 A.
How does its base-load current differ from AC0?
The AA3 value is 52.0 A; the AC0 data sheet specifies 51.0 A.
What thermal load is documented for the AA3 module?
The data sheet lists 0.55 kW typical / 0.62 kW maximum power loss and 0.031 m³/s airflow.
Can the 100 mm AC0 simply occupy the 150 mm AA3 position without review?
No. Mounting, busbars, cable routing, cooling, firmware, safety and drive parameters must all be checked.
