Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to select the correct Control Interface Board for your SINAMICS S120 system:
- Step 1 — Rated Current: Match the CIB current rating to your motor’s rated current. The 6SL3351-6FE33-1AA1 is rated for 33 A continuous output.
- Step 2 — Voltage Class: Confirm your DC link voltage matches the 380–480 V AC input class.
- Step 3 — Hardware Revision: Check the revision suffix (-1AA1, -1AA0, etc.) against your existing drive documentation to ensure firmware compatibility.
- Step 4 — Cooling: Verify the cooling method (internal fan vs. cold plate) matches your cabinet design.
- Step 5 — Safety Requirements: If SIL 2 / PLd safety functions are required, confirm the CIB and CU combination supports the required safety options.
- Step 6 — Fieldbus Protocol: Ensure the control unit paired with this CIB supports your required fieldbus (PROFIBUS or PROFINET).

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use 6SL3351-6FE33-1AA0 as a direct replacement for 6SL3351-6FE33-1AA1?
A: In most cases yes, but you must verify firmware compatibility. The -1AA0 is an earlier hardware revision and may require a firmware downgrade on the control unit. Always test in a non-production environment first.
Q: Is the 6SL3351-6FE33-1AA1 compatible with SINAMICS S150 or G120?
A: No. This CIB is specifically designed for the SINAMICS S120 Booksize platform. It is not interchangeable with S150 or G120 series components.
Q: What is the lead time for this part?
A: In-stock units ship within 1–3 business days. For out-of-stock items, typical lead time is 2–6 weeks depending on sourcing. Contact us for real-time availability.
Q: Do you provide a test report or certificate of conformity?
A: Yes. Certificates of conformity and inspection reports are available upon request for all orders.
Q: Can Konmask.com help identify the correct replacement if my original part is discontinued?
A: Absolutely. Send us your original part number, drive system model, and application details, and our engineers will recommend the best available equivalent.
