45 kW, 3-phase 480 V — what that means for your motor load
The ATV212WD45N4 is a 45 kW Altivar 212 drive built for asynchronous motors on 3-phase 480 V supplies. Line current pulls 83.8 A at 380 V and 65.9 A at 480 V — the lower draw at 480 V means less heat in the input wiring and a smaller upstream breaker if your plant runs at the higher voltage.
Integrated class C2 EMC filter — no external box needed
This drive ships with a built-in class C2 EMC filter per IEC 61800-3, so you skip the add-on filter bracket and the extra wiring. The filter covers conducted emissions for most industrial environments; if your installation is in a residential or light-industrial zone (environment 1), the drive also lists compliance down to category C1, meaning it can meet tighter limits without an external filter in many layouts.
Protection set — what the drive watches for
The ATV212WD45N4 monitors for overheating, short-circuit between motor phases, output-to-earth faults, DC bus overvoltage, input phase loss, and motor phase break. It also accepts PTC probes for direct motor thermal protection — a solid fit for pump and fan loads where the motor sits remote from the drive.
Mature lifecycle — sourcing reality
Schneider lists the ATV212WD45N4 lifecycle stage as mature. That means it is not in active new-product introduction, but it remains in the catalog with no announced end-of-life. We source it through authorized distribution channels and quote against your BOM quantity — availability and current pricing confirmed at RFQ time.
