The Schneider Electric ATV9A0C45R4 is a modular Altivar Process ATV900 drive rated for 450 kW at 440 V normal duty and 355 kW heavy duty, with corresponding line currents of 697 A and 559 A. It handles both synchronous and asynchronous motors, includes integrated EMC filter compliant with IEC 61800-3 category C3 for 300 m cable runs, and carries STO (Safe Torque Off) SIL 3 as a standard safety function.
Integration notes
Cabinet-mount only, IP00 — plan for IP21 or IP54 enclosure integration. The control block carries two RJ45 for Ethernet IP/Modbus TCP and one RJ45 for Modbus serial. Option card slots A, B, and C accept Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, EtherCAT, CANopen, digital/analog I/O extensions, relay extensions, and encoder interfaces (digital 5/12 V, analog, resolver). The switching frequency is adjustable 2.5 to 8 kHz with derating; for a 450 kW motor at 440 V, 2.5 kHz is the default and keeps thermal losses manageable. Operating altitude to 4800 m with derating above 1000 m — relevant for high-altitude installations.
