Siemens 6SL3120-2TE13-0AD0 SINAMICS S120 3 A D-Type Double Motor Module
Active 3 A/3 A D-type module delivers a 9 A peak on each of two compact S120 axes.
Product Profile
Siemens 6SL3120-2TE13-0AD0 is the active D-type Double Motor Module for two 3 A SINAMICS S120 axes. It operates from a 510 to 720 V DC link, supplies 2 x 3 A continuously and raises the maximum current to 2 x 9 A for high-dynamic demand. The 50 mm booksize unit combines internal air cooling, optimized pulse patterns, extended Safety Integrated support and DRIVE-CLiQ communication. Its threefold peak-current characteristic is the central distinction from the older 0AA3 module.

System Role
Power-Section Functions
- Controls two motor axes from one compact S120 power module.
- Provides 2 x 9 A maximum current, three times the rated value per channel.
- Uses separate X1 and X2 motor connectors for the two outputs.
- Supports servo, V/f and vector operation within the documented frequency limits.
- Integrates extended Safety Integrated functions in a validated drive system.
- Communicates through DRIVE-CLiQ for topology, diagnostics and component identification.
Exact Product Identity
- Manufacturer: Siemens
- Model: 6SL3120-2TE13-0AD0
- Product Type: SINAMICS S120 booksize D-type Double Motor Module
- Status: Active product
Compatibility
- Select the exact 0AD0 suffix when the project requires the D-type 2 x 9 A maximum.
- Do not copy the AA3 2 x 6 A maximum-current value into this D-type profile.
- Verify Control Unit firmware, DRIVE-CLiQ topology, motor data and encoder configuration.
- Check connector adaptation when migrating from an older AA-series module.
- Maintain the 100 A DC-link and 20 A 24 V busbar constraints for the complete drive group.
- Repeat all Safety Integrated acceptance tests after power-section exchange.
Applications
- High-dynamic two-axis machines requiring up to 9 A peak per channel.
- Compact 50 mm S120 drive groups using a shared DC link.
- Replacement of older 3 A double modules after connector and firmware validation.
- Servo systems using shielded motor cables up to the documented 50 m limit.
- Cabinets designed for IP20 components and internal forced-air cooling.
FAQ
What is the peak current of 6SL3120-2TE13-0AD0?
The D-type module provides 2 x 9 A maximum current.
Which motor connectors are used?
The two motor outputs use connectors X1 and X2.
How wide is the 3 A D-type Double Motor Module?
The module is 50 mm wide.
Which motor-cable limits apply?
Siemens specifies 50 m shielded and 75 m unshielded.
What safety performance is documented?
