Overview
The ATV12HU15M3 is a Schneider Altivar 12 series AC drive, rated 2 HP at 240 V AC three-phase input, delivering 7.5 A output current. It carries a heat sink style, IP20 enclosure, and Modbus communication onboard.
This drive controls a 2 HP induction motor via keypad, remote keypad, or Modbus. The 240 V AC three-phase input feeds a DC bus that drives the output stage; the 7.5 A continuous output current matches the motor full-load amps for a 2 HP 240 V three-phase motor. The heat sink style dissipates heat to the cabinet air — panel builders should allow clearance around the heat sink for natural convection. Modbus RTU on the RJ45 port handles setpoint, start/stop, and monitoring; the LED display shows frequency and fault codes.
Applications
Altivar 12 drives are specified for small conveyor drives, pump and fan control, packaging machinery, and material handling equipment where simple speed control and Modbus networking are sufficient. The 2 HP rating covers light-to-medium duty cycles in OEM machinery and standalone retrofit jobs.
The ATV12HU15M3 is a 2 HP, three-phase input drive in the Altivar 12 family.
