The 6SL3520-2XB01-1AF0 brings PROFINET and PROFIsafe to the smallest G115D 2XB drive — 1.1 kW FSA, 380 × 156 × 129 mm, B-connector. At 3.1 A HO, it serves light conveyor sections (small diverters, label applicators, roller beds) on PROFINET-controlled lines where uniform networking and safety architecture matter even at the lowest power rating.

Does PROFINET on a 1.1 kW drive add value?

On a PROFINET-standardized conveyor line, every drive — regardless of power — benefits from appearing as a TIA Portal device with PROFIsafe. The M12 D-coded 2-port switch supports daisy-chain topology, reducing the Ethernet switch count along the line. Engineers commission the 1.1 kW FSA with the same workflow as a 7.5 kW FSC — the tools and diagnostics are identical. For lines where PROFINET is the standard, the AF0 variant eliminates the need for separate safety relay wiring at every drive position.
