The Schneider ATV6000C338A4242NA3 is a medium-voltage variable speed drive from the Altivar Process ATV6000 range, built for large induction, synchronous, and permanent-magnet motors. It delivers 2700 kW in normal duty and 2360 kW in heavy duty, with an apparent power rating of 3380 kVA. The 24-pulse diode rectifier front end keeps input current THDI below 3% per IEEE 519-1992, so it meets utility harmonic limits without external filters in most installations.
Line current is 408 A for heavy-duty motor loads and 470 A for normal-duty applications — that is the input draw you need to size the upstream transformer and cabling for. Power losses run 102.6 kW heavy duty and 117.3 kW normal duty, which drives the ventilation requirement for the room or enclosure. The drive itself is floor-standing, 5360 mm wide, 2751 mm high, and 1700 mm deep — plan the footprint and lifting access accordingly. Output voltage is equal to or less than the supply voltage, so the motor sees the same voltage class as the incoming line. The integrated EMC filter meets IEC 61800-3 category C3 on the control side and C4 on the power side, which covers most industrial environments without add-on filtering.
This class of drive is specified for large pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, and mill drives in heavy industries — oil and gas, mining, water/wastewater, cement, and metals. The 24-pulse rectifier and <3% THDI make it a natural fit for sites with sensitive upstream equipment or utility-imposed harmonic limits. The 10-inch LCD touch screen HMI provides local monitoring and parameter access in multiple languages.
