Functions
- Provides a 36 kW line-infeed position for the modular SIMODRIVE 611 system.
- Uses external heat removal and must remain matched to the cabinet thermal design.
- Supplies the shared DC link used by compatible SIMODRIVE axis power modules.
- Works with the mains-side reactor and filter configuration defined for the drive group.
- Keeps the complete 6SN1146-1BB02-0CA2 suffix visible to distinguish closely related line-module variants.
Applications
- Legacy SIMODRIVE 611 drive groups requiring a 36 kW line module.
- Multi-axis machine-tool cabinets with a shared DC link.
- Maintenance replacements that retain existing line reactors and filters.
- Cabinet layouts designed for external heat removal.
- Migration assessments where the existing motor and axis-module inventory must be documented.
Lifecycle
- Use the full 6SN1146-1BB02-0CA2 article number rather than selecting only by the 36 kW rating.
- Record the complete drive lineup, DC-link connections, line components and terminal assignments.
- Preserve the external heat removal construction during spare selection or retrofit planning.
- Observe DC-link isolation and discharge procedures before work on the drive group.
- After replacement, test precharge, DC-link stability, axis operation and protective functions.
