The Schneider Electric APMCA03LCY6RH is a power filter in the Altivar Process Modular (APM) family, designed to sit between the supply and the drive for a cabinet-mounted installation. Heavy-duty rating drops to 163 A at the same voltages, 195 kVA. The integrated EMC filter meets category C3 for 300 m cable runs, which covers most industrial motor cable lengths without an external filter.
Sizing and fit constraints
At 1249 mm high, 269 mm wide, and 506 mm deep, this is a floor-standing cabinet section, not a DIN-rail component. The IP00 enclosure means it expects a clean, dry environment inside the cabinet — no hose-down, no dust ingress protection. Operating altitude is limited to 2000 m with derating above 1000 m; ambient temperature range is -10 to 40 °C without derating, 40 to 50 °C with a derating factor. Mounting is vertical only, integrated into the cabinet structure.
Compliance and environment
The part carries CE marking and complies with a full suite of IEC and UL standards: UL 61800-5-1, IEC 61800-3, IEC 61800-5-1, IEC 61000-3-12, IEC 60721-3, IEC 61508, and IEC 13849-1. Pollution degree 2, vibration and shock resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 and 60068-2-27. Chemical and dust pollution resistance class 3C3 / 3S3 per IEC 60721-3-3. The EMC immunity profile includes level 3 for electrostatic discharge, radiated RF, and conducted RF, and level 4 for fast transients. Prospective line short-circuit current rating is 50 kA. Insulation resistance is > 1 MΩ at 500 V between supply and earth.
