At 5.5 kW (13.2 A rated, 26.4 A overload), the 6SL3520-0XA25-5AF0 bridges the gap between mid-power and high-power conveyor zones. Positioned between 4 kW and 7.5 kW drives on the same PROFINET segment, it shares the same TIA Portal function block, telegram profile, and spare-parts strategy as every other G115D on the line — regardless of frame size.

How does the 5.5 kW G115D fit into a multi-zone conveyor topology?

A typical distribution-center conveyor line mixes 0.75 kW zone rollers with 5.5 kW incline belts and 7.5 kW merge sections. The G115D at every power level uses identical PROFINET telegrams and commissioning macros — the 5.5 kW FSC programs exactly like a 0.75 kW FSA. Maintenance teams carry one spare-fan strategy and one diagnostic LED pattern across the entire line. The unified 410 × 168 mm mounting bolt pattern across FSB and FSC means a single machine-frame drilling layout covers every drive from 2.2 to 7.5 kW.

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. Sensorless vector control maintains speed setpoint within ±0.5% under varying load for merge and accumulation zones. Integrated PROFINET and Ethernet IP interfaces connect directly to SIMATIC controllers. The built-in C2 RFI filter meets EN 61800-3 Category C2 conducted emission limits for industrial environments.
