The SINAMICS G115D is a distributed wall-mounted drive series for horizontal conveyor applications. The 6SL3520-1XE01-1AB0 delivers 1.1 kW at 3.1 A rated output (6.2 A overload) in the compact FSA frame (380 × 156 × 129 mm). This gland-type variant features an integral Category C2 line filter with sealed cable gland power entry. The 1XE01 sub-code spans both 1.1 kW and 1.5 kW power levels within the FSA frame, offering the gland-type connection across the full FSA power range.

What makes the gland-type FSA drive suited for light-duty conveyors?

Natural convection cooling eliminates fans and filters — silent operation with no moving parts to service. The gland-type connection provides a hardwired power entry through a sealed cable gland, maintaining full IP65/66 protection. Each drive receives its own dedicated power feed, simplifying installations where daisy-chain distribution is not needed. With a 15 m rated motor cable length and a 350 Ω integrated braking resistor, 1XE01 drives cover accumulation zones, diverters, and light transfer conveyor sections.

Key specifications

The drive operates from a 3 AC 380–480 V supply (45–66 Hz) with an output frequency range of 0–550 Hz. High-overload capability delivers 200% for 3 seconds and 150% for 57 seconds. Integrated PROFINET and Ethernet IP interfaces connect directly to SIMATIC controllers. The built-in RFI filter meets Category C2 requirements.
