The Siemens 6SL3520-0XC00-3AA0 is the I/O Control variant at the absolute lowest power rating in the 0XC connector family of the SINAMICS G115D wall-mounted distributed drive platform — 0.37 kW in the compact FSA frame (380 × 156 × 129 mm). With 1.3 A rated output (High Overload), 380–480 V 3-phase supply, and C-type connector, it is the smallest C-connector drive available: hardwired digital input control for the very lightest conveyor functions in C-connector facilities.

What does I/O Control mean at the smallest 0XC?

The AA0 suffix provides four programmable PNP digital inputs for speed, direction, and enable. At 0.37 kW, this covers the absolute lightest powered conveyor functions — a reject pusher, a mini diverter, a singulation gate. The drive delivers the full G115D motor control suite — V/f, V/f with FCC, sensorless vector control — identical to the PROFINET variant. Commission via Mini-USB; operate from 24 V DC I/O alone. The C-connector means this drive shares cable sets with every other 0XC drive on the line, from the smallest gate to a 4 kW trunk conveyor.

What motor types are supported?

The drive supports IE3 asynchronous motors, IE4 synchronous reluctance motors, and SIMOGEAR geared motor combinations up to 0.37 kW. Control modes: V/f (0–550 Hz), V/f with FCC, sensorless vector control (0–240 Hz). Integrated 180 V DC brake control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is an external braking resistor required?

At 0.37 kW, the integrated brake chopper is more than sufficient for all applications.
