6SL3055-0AA00-5CA1

The Siemens 6SL3055-0AA00-5CA1 is a precise sensor module used within the SINAMICS G120 series. It supports an operational voltage of 24 DC, with a specified range of 20.4 to 28.8 volts, allowing it to function optimally across varied conditions. Without an encoder, the current draw is less than 0.20 Amps, which increases to under 0.55 Amps when an encoder is utilized. This flexibility makes it adaptable to different application requirements.

Power loss is kept minimal at below 10 watts, contributing to overall system efficiency. The encoder operates on a dedicated 5V DC supply and can handle frequencies of less than 300 kHz, ensuring reliable performance in dynamic environments. Connectivity options include a PE/ground connection located on the housing, secured with an M4 screw at a torque of 1.8 Nm. The module itself weighs 0.8 kg, making it manageable for installation in varied setups.

The protection degree is rated at IP 20, indicating suitability for indoor use where minimal exposure to dust and moisture is typical. Compatibility with SMC30 equipment allows for broader usage within existing setups. Onboard status indicators are provided via two LEDs, offering real-time feedback on operational states. There are also provisions for protective conductor and shield connections, enhancing the unit’s protective measures. Finally, it is designed to operate effectively within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to +55°C, making it durable for a range of industrial applications.
