Product details

Process drive for pump, fan, and conveyor duty

The ATV650D55N4 is a 55 kW normal-duty variable speed drive from the Altivar Process ATV600 family, designed for asynchronous and synchronous motor control in process and utilities applications — think water pumps, HVAC fans, and conveyor lines where uptime drives the spec. In heavy-duty service it delivers 45 kW (60 hp) with a continuous output of 72 A at 4 kHz switching frequency; normal duty delivers 55 kW (75 hp) at 106 A and 2.5 kHz. The 0.1-500 Hz output frequency covers most fixed-speed motor retrofits and variable-torque loads.

IP55 enclosure and wall-mount integration

Wall-mount only, with a vertical ±10° operating position; forced-convection cooling (no fan filter to clog in dusty mills). Ambient temperature range is -15 to 40 °C without derating, extending to 50 °C with derating.

Safety and fieldbus flexibility

The drive carries CE marking and complies with IEC 61800-3 environment 1 category C2 and environment 2 category C3, with an integrated EMC filter rated for 150 m cable runs at C3. Slot A accepts fieldbus option cards for PROFINET, DeviceNet, Modbus TCP/EtherNet/IP, CANopen (daisy chain RJ45, SUB-D 9, or screw terminals), Profibus DP V1, Ethernet Powerlink, and BACnet MS/TP. Slot A and slot B also accept digital/analog I/O extension and output relay modules. Built-in Modbus serial and Modbus TCP ports are standard.

Frequently asked questions

What compliance documentation does the ATV650D55N4 carry?

The drive is CE marked and complies with IEC 61800-3, IEC 61800-5-1, IEC 61508 (STO SIL 3), IEC 13849-1, and UL 508C. An integrated EMC filter is included for category C3 environments.

What is the closest alternative to the ATV650D55N4 in the Altivar Process family?

No pin-compatible alternative exists within the Altivar Process ATV600 family for this frame size. The ATV650D55N4 is the standard version; any substitution would require a different drive frame and panel rework.
