30-pulse rectifier and harmonic compliance
The ATV6000C288A6666ND: The 30-pulse diode rectifier front end keeps input current THDI below 3% per IEEE 519-1992, so you can skip the external harmonic filter on most utility feeds. Line current draw is 234 A in heavy-duty profile, 252 A in normal duty — size the upstream transformer and cabling for the higher figure plus the transformer's own magnetizing inrush.
Motor power and duty cycling
Rated 2300 kW normal duty, 2140 kW heavy duty — the heavy-duty ceiling is the one that governs continuous process loads like pumps or compressors where the drive must ride through a 150% overload for 60 seconds. The IGBT inverter cells use multilevel PWM, which gives a cleaner output waveform and reduces motor bearing stress compared to a two-level topology.
Physical footprint and installation planning
This is a floor-standing enclosure, 108.3 inches tall, 183.5 inches wide, 63.0 inches deep. That footprint plus the 83 dB noise level and 100 kW heat rejection at normal duty means the drive needs its own room with forced ventilation or a dedicated HVAC zone — it will not share a cabinet with PLCs or low-voltage controls.
Lifecycle and procurement posture
No direct drop-in substitute exists from Schneider; the ATV6000 family is the active platform for this power class.
