The insulation test is 1 MΩ at 500 V DC for one minute to earth. ## Safety and compliance The module carries CE marking and is designed to IEC 61800-3 (EMC environment), IEC 61800-5-1 (safety), IEC 61000-3-12 (harmonic limits), IEC 60721-3 (environmental classification), and IEC 61508 / IEC 13849-1 for functional safety. ## Thermal and environmental limits Operates from -10 to 40 °C without derating, and up to 50 °C with derating. Power dissipation hits 2390 W at a 2.5 kHz switching frequency under forced convection. Pollution degree 2 per IEC 61800-5-1, and chemical/dust resistance class 3C3 / 3S3 per IEC 60721-3-3. ## Communications and fieldbus Ethernet/Modbus TCP at 10/100 Mbit/s via RJ45 on the remote graphic terminal, plus Modbus serial at 4.8 to 38.4 kbit/s (2-wire RS-485, RTU frame) on a second RJ45. Supports half/full duplex and autonegotiation. Modbus serial addressing from 1 to 247, with configurable parity (8-bit, odd/even/none).","metaTitle":"Schneider APM6A0CTLN401 Altivar Process control module, 380-","metaDescription":"Active Schneider APM6A0CTLN401 control module for Altivar Process drives. 380-480V supply, STO SIL3, Modbus TCP/Ethernet.
