The 6SL3136-7TE23-6AA3 is a SINAMICS S120 Active Line Module that takes 3-phase 380-480 VAC at 50/60 Hz and outputs a regulated 600 VDC bus at 60 A, delivering 36 kW of continuous power. That DC bus feeds one or more Motor Modules in a multi-axis drive system — the 60 A rating sets the total current budget for all connected axes combined. The Booksize form factor with cold-plate cooling means this module mounts in a cabinet where the heat sink is coupled to a liquid-cooled backplate or cabinet wall, not relying on fan-driven air. For a panel builder, that changes the thermal layout — the cold plate rejects heat directly, so the enclosure's internal air temperature rise is lower than with a fan-cooled unit of the same rating. The DRIVE-CLiQ cable is included, so the module connects directly to a Control Unit and other S120 components over the Siemens motion bus without needing a separate cable order.
Active production, made to order — sourcing reality
The product class is C: manufactured or produced to order, which means Siemens builds it against a customer order rather than stocking it as a standard catalog item. This affects lead time — expect a build-to-order schedule rather than same-day shipment — and the module cannot be returned for credit once produced.
Compliance and regulatory documentation
This simplifies cross-border procurement for integrators and OEMs shipping globally.
