132 kW process drive with IP54 enclosure and integrated EMC filter
The Schneider Electric ATV950C13N4F is a floor-standing variable speed drive from the Altivar Process ATV900 series, rated for 132.0 kW normal duty and 110.0 kW heavy duty on asynchronous or synchronous motors. It delivers 250 A continuous output at a 2.5 kHz switching frequency for normal duty, and 211 A at 2.5 kHz for heavy duty, from a 380-440 V three-phase supply. The IP54 rating and floor-standing enclosure suit it for industrial environments where dust and splash ingress are a concern, with an integrated EMC filter and an optional EMC plate for conducted emissions compliance.
Control supply architecture and fieldbus options
Control power is drawn from an external 24 V DC supply (19-30 V range) for digital inputs, with a separate 24 V DC (21-27 V) internal supply for digital inputs and STO, plus a 10.5 V DC reference for an external potentiometer. The drive ships with Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus serial as standard communication ports, and accepts plug-in option modules for Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, EtherCAT, CANopen, and Ethernet Powerlink in slot A. Slot A, B, and C also accept digital/analog I/O extension and output relay extension modules; slot B accepts encoder interface modules (digital 5/12 V, analog, or resolver).
Standards compliance and environmental ratings
The ATV950C13N4F carries CE marking and is designed to IEC 60204-1, IEC 61800-2, IEC 61800-3, and IEC 61800-5-1, covering machinery safety, drive performance, EMC, and functional safety requirements. It is rated for pollution degree 2, overvoltage category III, and environmental class 3C3 (chemical) and 3S3 (dust) per IEC 60721-3-3, with EMC immunity tested to level 3 for ESD, radiated RF, and conducted RF, and level 4 for fast transients. Total harmonic current distortion (THDI) is below 48% at full load per IEC 61000-3-12, and the drive includes an adjustable PID regulator for closed-loop process control.
