Siemens D2E160-AH01-17 Inverter Axial Flow Fan Blower
The D2E160-AH01-17 is a high-performance axial flow fan blower manufactured by Siemens, also referenced as 6SL3362-0AF01-0AA1. It is specifically designed for cooling Siemens SINAMICS drives, S7 PLCs, and industrial control cabinets. The fan features an external rotor motor with integrated thermal protection, and it is optimized for continuous operation in dusty or humid environments. The unit provides forced air circulation to maintain operating temperatures within specified limits for electronic components.
Technical Specifications
Nominal Voltage: 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz
Power Consumption: 95 W at 50 Hz, 110 W at 60 Hz
Current Draw: 0.42 A (50 Hz), 0.48 A (60 Hz)
Airflow: 400 m³/h (235 CFM) at 50 Hz, 480 m³/h (283 CFM) at 60 Hz
Static Pressure: 210 Pa (0.84 in H₂O) at 50 Hz, 280 Pa (1.12 in H₂O) at 60 Hz

Mechanical Design
The fan housing is made of die-cast aluminum with a black powder coating. The impeller (diameter 160 mm) is constructed from glass-fiber reinforced plastic. The motor has sealed ball bearings (NMB or SKF) rated for L10 life of 50,000 hours at 25°C. The unit includes a terminal box with IP54 protection, and the fan itself is rated IP44. Dimensions: 200 mm × 200 mm × 80 mm (width × height × depth). Weight: 1.8 kg.
Electrical Protection
Integrated features include auto-reset thermal overload protector (opens at 130°C motor temperature), locked rotor protection (current limit), and an internal capacitor for single-phase operation. The fan does not produce electrical interference; it meets EN 55014-1 for EMC emission. Connection is via a 3-pin terminal block (L, N, PE) accepting up to 2.5 mm² wire.
Environmental and Noise
Operating temperature: -25°C to +70°C; storage: -40°C to +85°C. Humidity: 5–95% non-condensing. Noise level: 58 dBA at 50 Hz, 62 dBA at 60 Hz (measured at 1 meter). The fan is suitable for altitudes up to 2000 m without derating. Vibration resistance: 0.5 g at 10–150 Hz.
Applications
This fan is specifically used in Siemens SINAMICS G120 and S120 drive cabinets, S7-400 PLC racks, and third-party enclosures requiring high airflow. The 6SL3362-0AF01-0AA1 part number indicates it is an official spare part for Siemens drive systems. For cabinet mounting, the fan should be installed with the intake facing the hot components and the exhaust directed outside.
