Current-production drive with a full compliance pack
The Schneider ATV6A0C25T6 is an active-line, modular Altivar Process ATV600 drive rated 250 hp at 600 V normal duty and 200 hp at 600 V heavy duty. It draws 218 A line current in normal duty and 179 A in heavy duty; apparent power is 227 kVA and 186 kVA respectively. The drive includes an integrated EMC filter compliant with IEC 61800-3 category C3, covering 300 m of motor cable without an external box. Total harmonic distortion (THDI) stays below 48% at full load per IEC 61000-3-12 – useful for installations with weak supply networks. Safety function STO (Safe Torque Off) is built in at SIL 3, removing the need for a separate safety relay for most stop circuits.
Compliance and markings – what to expect on the nameplate
The drive carries CE marking and 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. Enclosure options include UL Type 1 and Type 12 for cabinet integration.
Field connection and environment
Line side connection uses screw terminals; motor connections are M10 bars. Control wiring is removable screw terminals accepting 0.5…1.5 mm² (AWG 20…16). The drive is forced-convection cooled and rated for pollution degree 2 per IEC 61800-5-1. Operating altitude is up to 2000 m with current derating above 1000 m. Vibration resistance: 1.5 mm peak-to-peak at 2…13 Hz and 0.5 gn at 13…200 Hz per IEC 60068-2-6. Shock resistance: 4 gn for 11 ms per IEC 60068-2-23. Relative humidity 5…95% without condensation.
