The 6SL3520-0XA60-5AF0 drives 0.55 kW motors (1.7 A rated, 3.4 A overload) for the most common light-conveyor motor size in material handling. This is the workhorse rating for accumulation zones, small belt sections, and roller conveyor segments up to roughly 10–15 m.

Which SIMOGEAR motors pair with the 0.55 kW G115D?

The drive is matched to SIMOGEAR 2KJ8 geared motors in frame size 71–80, covering IE2 asynchronous motors at 0.55 kW. The integrated 350 Ω braking resistor handles frequent stop-start duty on accumulation conveyors. Motor cable length is rated to 15 m at 4 kHz pulse frequency — sufficient for direct on-machine mounting without a junction box.

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.
