What is the FSC frame and how does it differ from FSB?

The FSC frame (425 × 180 × 169 mm, 7.85 kg) shares the same physical footprint as the fan-cooled FSB (4 kW) but with higher-rated power components — 13.2 A continuous output (26.4 A overload). The enclosure dimensions, mounting hole pattern (C1 = 168 mm, C2 = 410 mm), and integrated fan are mechanically identical to FSB 4 kW. The difference is in the power stage: FSC uses higher-current IGBTs and enhanced thermal management to handle 5.5 kW in the same form factor. At 7.85 kg, FSC is only 330 g heavier than FSB 4 kW (7.52 kg). 24 V DC control supply consumption: approximately 550 mA (AS-Interface variant).

AS-Interface (AF0) variant

Integrated AS-i slave for control and monitoring over the yellow AS-i flat cable — power and communication on a single two-conductor unshielded cable. No Ethernet switch infrastructure needed at the drive. 24 V DC control supply: approximately 550 mA (higher due to integrated fan).

Wall-mounted SINAMICS G115D distributed drive for horizontal conveyor applications. IP65/IP66 — mount directly on the machine frame, no cabinet. 3AC 380–480 V ±10%, 0–550 Hz, integrated EMC Cat C2 filter. STO SIL 2 / PL d via F-DI or PROFIsafe. SIMOGEAR 2KJ8 motor compatible (IE3/IE4). 200%/3 s, 150%/57 s overload. Ambient –30°C to +40°C. FSC, 425 × 180 × 169 mm, 7.85 kg, integrated fan cooling.
