Product details

Altivar Process ATV900 drive for 690 V heavy-duty applications

The ATV9A0C40Q6 is a modular Altivar Process ATV900 drive from Schneider, rated 400 kW at 690 V for normal duty and 315 kW for heavy duty, with an integrated EMC filter meeting IEC 61800-3 category C3 and safe torque off (STO) to SIL3. It handles synchronous and asynchronous motors, with a switching frequency adjustable from 2 to 4.9 kHz and a line current of 394 A normal duty or 316 A heavy duty at 690 V.

The heavy duty motor power (315 kW at 690 V) defines continuous capability for constant-torque loads like conveyors or extruders; the normal duty rating (400 kW) applies to variable-torque loads such as pumps and fans. Line current at heavy duty (316 A) dictates the upstream breaker and cable cross-section; the prospective line Isc of 50 kA means the drive can be installed on supply networks with high fault current capacity. The integrated EMC filter is rated for 300 m cable at C3 (second environment, industrial), so no external filter is needed for most industrial installations—saves panel space and wiring. STO SIL3 is built in, eliminating the need for a separate safety relay for torque-off functions. It is paired with thermal protection for both motor and drive, plus phase-loss and overcurrent detection.

Supply and control wiring

The drive expects an external 24 V DC supply for digital inputs (19 to 30 V), and generates internal 10.5 V for a reference potentiometer (1 to 10 kOhm) and 24 V for digital inputs and STO logic. Control connections are via removable screw terminals (0.5 to 1.5 mm², AWG 20 to 16), with line and motor connections on M10 bars. Built-in Modbus serial (RS-485, RTU) and Ethernet IP/Modbus TCP (10/100 Mbit/s) provide fieldbus connectivity; option slots accept Profibus DP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, DeviceNet, CANopen, and I/O extension modules.

The drive carries CE marking and complies with IEC 61800-3, 61800-5-1, 61000-3-12, 60721-3, 61508, and 13849-1. The variant is modular, supplied as a kit including control unit, mounting hardware, fuses, and a 200 kW power module.

Frequently asked questions

What are the supply voltage requirements for the control circuitry?

Digital inputs use an external 24 V DC supply (19 to 30 V). Internal supplies provide 10.5 V DC for a reference potentiometer and 24 V DC for digital inputs and STO logic.

What safety function does this drive support?

It includes safe torque off (STO) rated to SIL3, eliminating the need for an external safety relay for torque-off applications.

What EMC compliance does the integrated filter provide?

The integrated EMC filter meets IEC 61800-3 category C3 for second environment (industrial), supporting cable lengths up to 300 m without an external filter.
