The switching frequency is adjustable between 2 and 4.9 kHz with derating — useful for matching motor acoustic noise or reducing losses. Line-side prospective short-circuit current is rated at 50 kA. ## Control and safety The drive provides thermal protection, motor phase break detection, overcurrent between output phases and earth, and DC bus overvoltage monitoring. Control uses removable screw terminals (0.5–1.5 mm²). ## Communication and expansion Comes with dual RJ45 Ethernet IP/Modbus TCP ports plus one RJ45 Modbus serial port. Slot A accepts Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, CANopen (RJ45 or SUB-D 9 or screw terminals), or EtherCAT. Slots A/B/C accept digital/analog I/O or output relay extension modules; Slot B also accepts encoder interface modules (5/12 V digital, analog, or resolver). Modbus serial runs RTU at 4.8 to 38.4 kbit/s, addressing up to 247 slaves. Cabinet-mount design with forced convection cooling. Pollution degree 2 per IEC 61800-5-1. Vibration resistance: 1.5 mm peak-to-peak at 2–13 Hz, 0.5 gn at 13–200 Hz. Shock rated at 4 gn for 11 ms. Relative humidity 5–95% non-condensing.","metaTitle":"Schneider ATV9A0M12Q6 Altivar Process ATV900, 1200 kW at 690","metaDescription":"Schneider ATV9A0M12Q6 Altivar Process ATV900 drive, 1200 kW normal duty at 690 V, 1161 A line current, integrated C3 EMC filter, STO SIL 3.
