Product details

The Schneider ATV6A0C40T6 is a current-production Altivar Process ATV600 drive in the modular version, rated 450 hp at 600 V normal duty and 350 hp at 600 V heavy duty. It handles synchronous and asynchronous motors, output voltage up to line supply, and includes integrated STO SIL3 safety function. Line current is 379 A normal duty (298 A heavy duty) with a prospective short-circuit rating of 50 kA.

Ratings that matter for selection

The dual-duty rating let you size for either normal or heavy-duty motor loads — 450 hp vs 350 hp on 600 V — giving a derating path for constant-torque applications. Switching frequency is adjustable from 2 to 4.9 kHz with derating; the integrated EMC filter meets IEC 61800-3 category C3 for 300 m cable runs. Protection covers motor and drive thermal, phase break, overcurrent, earth fault, DC bus overvoltage, line supply undervoltage/overvoltage, phase loss, and overspeed.

As a modular version, the kit includes the power module, control unit, mounting hardware, fuses, and front cover — a complete drive package that simplifies procurement. All compliance documentation (CE, UL, IEC 61800, IEC 61508, IEC 13849-1) is on file. This drive can be specified with confidence into any machine design requiring SIL3 STO. For exact BOM fit, submit an RFQ — we confirm the line current, motor power, and options (slot A communication cards, I/O extensions) against your application.

Cabinet-mount design with forced convection cooling. Accepts UL type 1 or type 12 enclosures when integrated into a cabinet. Communication options cover Modbus serial (RS-485), Modbus TCP, PROFIBUS DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, CANopen, and Ethernet/IP through slot A cards. Vibration resistance is 1.5 mm peak-to-peak (2–13 Hz) and 0.5 gn (13–200 Hz) per IEC 60068-2-6; shock resistance is 4 gn for 11 ms per IEC 60068-2-27. Operating altitude up to 2000 m with derating above 1000 m; relative humidity 5–95% non-condensing; pollution degree 2.
