Product details

The ATV6B0C40Q6: Motor power: 400 kW normal duty at 690 V, 315 kW heavy duty – the heavy-duty figure governs continuous high-torque loads like conveyors and crushers; the normal-duty number applies to centrifugal pumps and fans with quadratic torque. Line current at 690 V: 363 A normal duty, 287 A heavy duty – this is the current the drive draws from the supply, not the motor full-load current. Size upstream protection and cables accordingly. Integrated EMC filter meets IEC 61800-3 category C3, meaning it is suitable for second-environment (industrial) installations with cable lengths up to 300 m. No external filter needed for typical plant-floor runs. Safe Torque Off (STO) SIL 3 – a hardware safety function that removes torque without a separate safety contactor. If your machine safety requirement calls for SIL 3, this drive already has it.

Communications and modularity

Slot A on the ATV6B0C40Q6 accepts fieldbus option cards: Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, Modbus TCP/EtherNet/IP, CANopen (RJ45 or Sub-D or screw terminals). Slot A/B also accepts digital/analog I/O or relay extension modules. The base unit carries Modbus serial (RS-485, 2-wire, RTU) and Modbus TCP Ethernet (10/100 Mbit/s) as standard. Switching frequency adjustable 2–4.9 kHz; derate current for higher frequencies above 2 kHz. For motor-friendly operation at long cable runs, stay at 2 kHz.

Mechanical and environmental

Cabinet-mounted, forced-convection cooled. Pollution degree 2, vibration 1.5 mm peak-to-peak at 2–13 Hz (0.5 g at 13–200 Hz), shock 4 g for 11 ms. Relative humidity 5–95% non-condensing.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key motor power ratings of this drive?

The drive is rated 400 kW normal duty and 315 kW heavy duty at 690 V supply. Normal duty applies to variable-torque loads like pumps and fans; heavy duty for constant-torque loads like conveyors.

What communication protocols does the ATV6B0C40Q6 support?

It includes built-in Modbus serial (RS-485, RTU) and Modbus TCP Ethernet. For Profibus, PROFINET, DeviceNet, CANopen, or EtherNet/IP, install an option card in Slot A.

Does this drive have an internal EMC filter?

Yes, it has an integrated EMC filter compliant with IEC 61800-3 category C3, suitable for industrial environments with cable lengths up to 300 m.

What safety functions does the ATV6B0C40Q6 include?

It includes Safe Torque Off (STO) certified SIL 3, which can replace a safety contactor in many machine safety architectures.
