Siemens 6SL3136-7TE21-6AA3 SINAMICS S120 Active Line Module
A cold-plate-cooled Active Line Module for regulated DC-link supply and regenerative operation in an engineered SINAMICS S120 drive system.
Overview
6SL3136-7TE21-6AA3 is the 16 kW cold-plate version of the SINAMICS S120 Active Line Module. It forms the regenerative line infeed for a compatible booksize drive group and uses the machine builder's cooling surface to remove the specified external heat load.
The article belongs to the 100 mm width class. Its line-side arrangement must include the designated Active Interface Module, while the Control Unit and DRIVE-CLiQ network provide coordinated control, status and diagnostics.

Features
- Active infeed topology supports energy flow from the line to the DC link and suitable regenerative energy back to the supply.
- Cold-plate construction transfers the defined external loss to the machine builder's cooling surface instead of relying on a complete internal heatsink.
- Three DRIVE-CLiQ sockets connect the module to the S120 control and diagnostics topology.
- Integrated DC-link busbars simplify connection to the adjacent booksize drive group when the approved mechanical arrangement is followed.
- Front status indicators provide local operating-state information during commissioning and service.
Applications
- Compact multi-axis machines requiring a regenerative SINAMICS S120 line infeed in the 16 kW class.
- Cabinets where the equipment design includes a validated cold plate or liquid-cooled mounting surface.
- Motion-control systems that benefit from a regulated DC link during dynamic acceleration and braking cycles.
- OEM drive line-ups designed around the matching 100 mm Active Interface Module and booksize DC-link geometry.
Lifecycle
- Retain the complete article number during replacement because cooling construction, power class and version suffix are part of the module identity.
- Do not replace this cold-plate unit with an internally or externally air-cooled article solely on the basis of rated power.
- Record the Control Unit project, DRIVE-CLiQ topology, Active Interface Module, line-side protection and cold-plate specification before removal.
- Inspect the thermal interface, DC-link polarity and protective-earth connections before returning the infeed to service.
FAQ
What power class does 6SL3136-7TE21-6AA3 represent?
It is the 16 kW cold-plate Active Line Module with a 27 A DC output rating.
Which line-side interface module is paired with this unit?
The documented Active Interface Module is 6SL3100-0BE21-6AB0.
Why is the cold plate important for this article?
The equipment cooling surface must remove the specified external loss while maintaining the required thermal resistance.
Can a 6SL3130 or 6SL3131 module be installed without a cabinet review?
No. Those prefixes identify different cooling constructions, so the mounting and heat-removal design must be checked.
How is the module integrated into the S120 control system?
It connects through DRIVE-CLiQ and the shared booksize DC-link arrangement.
What should be verified before energizing a replacement?
Check the exact article, Active Interface Module, line protection, thermal interface, DC-link connection and project data.
