The ATV12H15M2 is a Schneider Electric variable speed drive from the ATV12 series, sized for a 1.5 kW (2 hp) asynchronous motor on a 200-240 V single-phase supply. It carries an integrated EMC filter and communicates over Modbus. The built-in fan and heatsink assembly handle the thermal load for simple machine applications.
The 200-240 V single-phase input with a 15-10 % tolerance means this drive connects to a standard North American or European single-phase line — no step-down transformer needed for 230 V shop power. The integrated EMC filter meets the conducted emission limits for the drive's rated environment without an external add-on. That saves panel space and one wiring step — just mount the drive close to the line entry and keep the motor cable short to avoid radiating the switching edge. Modbus on the communication port gives direct connectivity to a PLC or HMI over RS-485. No gateway or protocol converter is required for a Modbus RTU master; the drive appears as a standard slave on the bus.
