Product details

Drive at a glance

The ATV6A0C20S6 is a modular Altivar Process ATV600 drive rated for 200 hp at 600 V normal duty and 175 hp heavy duty, drawing 172 A and 152 A line current respectively. It ships in cabinet-mount form with forced-convection cooling and carries CE marking alongside UL 61800-5-1 Type 1 protection for cabinet integration.

Ratings and real-world derating

Switching frequency is adjustable 2–4.9 kHz with a derating factor, so plan for reduced output current if you run above 4 kHz. Operating altitude is limited to 2000 m with derating above 1000 m. The prospective line short-circuit current rating is 50 kA, giving solid SCCR headroom for most industrial distribution.

Fieldbus and safety architecture

Slot A accepts interchangeable communication modules: Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, Modbus TCP/EtherNet/IP, or CANopen (RJ45, SUB-D 9, or screw terminals). A second slot A/B handles digital/analog I/O or relay expansion. The integrated Modbus serial runs at 4.8–38.4 kbit/s; the Ethernet port does 10/100 Mbit/s with auto-negotiation. Safe Torque Off is rated SIL 3, and the drive also monitors motor phase, thermal, overcurrent, ground faults, and DC bus overvoltages.

Frequently asked questions

What is the marking and variant of this drive?

It is marked CE and is the modular version of the Altivar Process ATV600 range.

What compliance documentation does this drive carry?

It complies with IEC 61800-3, IEC 61800-5-1, IEC 61000-3-12, IEC 60721-3, IEC 61508, IEC 13849-1, and UL 61800-5-1. The integrated EMC filter meets category C3 per IEC 61800-3.
