Features:
- 6SL3246-0BA22-1FA0 VERSION 4.6 provides 15 DI, 2 relay DO, 2 AI, 2 AO, and 3 failsafe inputs.
- Supports V/f linear/square-law, FCC, sensorless vector control, vector with encoder, and torque control.
- PROFINET communication with -10°C to +50°C operation, IP20, UL/cUL/CE certified.
The 6SL3246-0BA22-1FA0 VERSION 4.6 eliminates the need for separate I/O modules in many drive applications by integrating 15 digital inputs, 2 relay outputs (30V DC, 1A), 2 analog inputs, and 2 analog outputs directly on the control unit. This high-density I/O configuration significantly reduces cabinet space and wiring complexity, lowering overall system cost. For safety-critical applications, the control unit includes 3 failsafe digital inputs, which utilize 2 of the standard DI channels to provide safety-related signal evaluation. These failsafe inputs are essential for implementing safety functions such as Safe Torque Off (STO) without requiring external safety relays.
The 6SL3246-0BA22-1FA0 VERSION 4.6 supports a comprehensive range of motor control techniques to match virtually any industrial application. For simple pump and fan applications, V/f linear and V/f square-law control provide basic speed control at minimal cost. For dynamic applications requiring high torque at low speeds, V/f with flux current control (FCC) improves performance. For demanding applications such as conveyors, hoists, and extruders, sensorless vector control delivers excellent speed accuracy and torque response without an encoder. For the highest precision applications requiring zero speed torque holding and precise positioning, vector control with encoder feedback is available.
The 6SL3246-0BA22-1FA0 VERSION 4.6 features a PROFINET interface that enables real-time communication with PLCs, HMIs, and other automation devices. PROFINET supports isochronous real-time (IRT) and standard RT communication, allowing the drive to be integrated into high-performance motion control networks. The control unit operates in temperatures from -10°C to +50°C and can be stored from -40°C to +70°C, making it suitable for unheated industrial environments. With IP20 protection, the unit is designed for installation within control cabinets.
The 6SL3246-0BA22-1FA0 VERSION 4.6 Siemens Control Unit may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
