Siemens 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 – SINAMICS S120 Single Motor Module 60A | Booksize Format
Engineering Background
The SINAMICS S120 drive system is Siemens’ flagship multi-axis servo and vector drive platform, engineered for demanding motion-control applications across machine tools, printing, packaging, and process automation. The S120 architecture separates the infeed (Line Module) from the axis control (Motor Module), enabling modular, scalable drive trains with shared DC-link bus topology.
Product Positioning
The 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 is a Single Motor Module in Booksize format rated at 60 A continuous output current. It connects directly to the S120 DC-link bus and drives one AC induction or synchronous servo motor. Designed for high-dynamic servo axes where precise torque and speed control are critical, this module is the workhorse of mid-power single-axis applications within the S120 cabinet or booksize cluster.

Engineering Advantages
- DRIVE-CLiQ Integration – Single cable carries power feedback, encoder data, and module ID; eliminates separate encoder wiring and simplifies commissioning via STARTER / TIA Portal
- Shared DC-Link Bus – Energy regenerated by braking axes is consumed by motoring axes, reducing net energy draw and eliminating braking resistors in balanced systems
- Integrated STO Safety – Dual-channel Safe Torque Off certified to SIL 2 / PLe without external safety relay, reducing panel footprint and BOM cost
- Compact Booksize Form Factor – 50 mm width enables dense multi-axis clusters; standardized mounting rail compatible with S120 Booksize infrastructure
- Selectable Switching Frequency – 4 / 8 / 16 kHz options balance motor acoustic noise against module thermal loading
- Plug-and-Play Replacement – Module stores drive parameters on DRIVE-CLiQ; replacement unit auto-downloads configuration on first power-up
System Architecture & Signal Flow
In a typical S120 Booksize cluster, the Active Line Module (ALM) or Smart Line Module (SLM) rectifies incoming 3-phase AC to a regulated DC-link bus (nominally 600 V DC). The 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 Single Motor Module taps this DC bus and inverts it to variable-frequency, variable-voltage 3-phase AC for the connected motor. The Control Unit (CU320-2) communicates with the Motor Module via DRIVE-CLiQ, executing closed-loop vector or servo control algorithms. Encoder feedback from the motor is routed back through DRIVE-CLiQ to the CU, completing the control loop. Safety signals (STO) are wired directly to the Motor Module’s dual-channel safety terminals.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the 6SL3120-1TE26-0AC0 compatible with SINAMICS S120 firmware V5.x?
A: Yes. The module is backward-compatible with all S120 firmware versions from V4.x onward. Always update the CU firmware before replacing a Motor Module in a live system.
Q: Can this module drive a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM)?
A: Yes. The S120 Motor Module supports both induction (ASM) and synchronous (PMSM/LSPM) motors. Motor type is configured in the drive object parameters via STARTER or TIA Portal V15+.
Q: What Line Module is required to pair with this unit?
A: A Booksize Active Line Module (e.g., 6SL3130-7TE21-6AA3 / 16 kW) or Smart Line Module sized to cover the total peak power of all Motor Modules on the shared DC bus.
Q: Does the module support Safe Stop 1 (SS1)?
A: STO (Safe Torque Off) is integrated. SS1 can be implemented via the CU320-2 safety function with an external timer or via TM54F terminal module — no additional hardware required on the Motor Module itself.
Q: What is the lead time for this part?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For large quantities or specific date-code requirements, contact us for availability confirmation.
