03Features
Key Functions
- Controls two motor axes from one booksize Motor Module.
- Each output channel carries the documented 9 A rating.
- Optimized pulse patterns are included in this hardware revision.
- DRIVE-CLiQ connects the module into the S120 control topology.
- Internal air cooling supports compact multi-axis cabinet construction.
- Extended Safety Integrated functions require the appropriate Control Unit, firmware and validated safety configuration.
Product Identity
- Manufacturer: Siemens
- Model: 6SL3120-2TE21-0AA3
- Product Type: SINAMICS S120 Double Motor Module, Booksize
04Compatibility
- Confirm the 600 V DC-link system, busbars, Control Unit, firmware and DRIVE-CLiQ topology.
- Match motor ratings, encoder systems, motor cables, braking arrangements and axis-specific commissioning data.
- Verify the approved safety functions and licenses for the installed S120 release.
- Check mechanical width, cooling path, clearances, ambient temperature and cabinet design.
- The later 6SL3120-2TE21-0AA4 has the same core 9 A / 9 A product description, but a revision change still requires Siemens compatibility confirmation.
05Replacement & Lifecycle
- The current Siemens listing states that 6SL3120-2TE21-0AA3 is no longer available.
- Evaluate 6SL3120-2TE21-0AA4 only through the current Siemens replacement and compatibility documentation.
- Back up the complete drive project and record Control Unit firmware, axis assignments, motor and encoder data, safety settings and DRIVE-CLiQ addresses.
- Do not assume that identical current ratings guarantee firmware, pulse-pattern or Safety Integrated compatibility.
- After replacement, commission and test both axes, feedback, current limits, brakes, safety functions, alarms and thermal performance.
06Applications
Typical Uses
- Dual-axis S120 machine sections requiring 9 A per output channel.
- Multi-axis packaging, handling, printing and converting machinery.
- Maintenance of existing booksize drive groups using internal air cooling.
- Engineered replacement projects where the installed AA3 revision is no longer available.
Selection Boundary
- Confirm the exact AA3 revision and existing system release.
- Match both 9 A axes, motors, encoders and the 600 V DC link.
- Use Siemens compatibility guidance before moving to AA4 or another module.
FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What is Siemens 6SL3120-2TE21-0AA3?
It is a SINAMICS S120 booksize Double Motor Module for two motor axes.
What are its electrical ratings?
