Siemens 6SL3120-2TE15-0AA4 SINAMICS S120 Double Motor Module
Booksize Format | 2 * 5A | 600 VDC Input | 400V 3AC Output | Drive-CLiQ | Extended Safety Integrated | IP20
Two Axes, One Compact Housing
The Siemens 6SL3120-2TE15-0AA4 is a SINAMICS S120 booksize double motor module rated at 2 * 5A output, serving two independent axes from one compact housing. It draws from the shared DC link maintained by the upstream Line Module, communicates with the Control Unit via Drive-CLiQ, and includes full Extended Safety Integrated capability on both channels as standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the power rating that corresponds to the 5A output current per channel?
At 400V 3-phase output and 5A rated current, each channel delivers approximately 2.7 kW of continuous output power, suitable for servo motors and compact asynchronous motors in the sub-3kW range.
Can the two motor channels operate completely independently, including independent safety events?
Yes. Each channel has its own Safe Standstill input and Safe Motor Brake Control output, allowing independent safety-triggered shutdowns without affecting the other channel.
What is the difference between the 6SL3120-2TE15-0AA4 and the 6SL3120-2TE15-0AD0?
Both are SINAMICS S120 booksize Double Motor Modules rated at 2 * 5A. The AA4 is the current standard booksize type, while AD0 is the booksize D-type with a narrower profile for tight cabinet installations.
Does this module require external cooling or a cooling duct?
No. The module has fully internal air cooling with an integrated fan. No external blower, heat exchanger, or cooling duct connection is required.
What Control Unit variants are compatible with this module?
Compatible with any SINAMICS S120-capable Control Unit that supports booksize Motor Modules via Drive-CLiQ, including CU320-2, CU310-2, SIMOTION D, and SINUMERIK integrated CNC control units.
