The 6SL3520-1XH67-5AB0 combines the full 7.5 kW FSC output with an integrated braking chopper — the AB0 suffix at the top of the G115D power range. At 38 A continuous and 200% peak for 3 seconds, this drive handles the largest regenerative loads in the distributed drive lineup: pallet lifts descending with a full load, turntables decelerating from high speed with high inertia, conveyor segments stopping heavy product in a short zone.

Braking at 7.5 kW — when the energy matters

A 7.5 kW drive decelerating a loaded pallet lift from rated speed returns kinetic energy to the DC link on the order of hundreds of joules per stop. Without a braking chopper, the drive extends the deceleration ramp to keep DC-link voltage below the trip threshold — adding time to every cycle. With the integrated chopper and internal braking resistor, the drive dissipates that energy as heat inside the FSC enclosure and decelerates at the motor's mechanical limit. For a high-bay warehouse lift making 200 cycles per shift, the cycle-time savings compound into additional throughput capacity without adding a single external component to the drive installation.
