Product details

The Schneider ATV9B0C16Q6 is an Altivar Process ATV900 modular drive rated for 160 kW at 690 V normal duty and 132 kW at 690 V heavy duty, with a corresponding line current of 148 A normal and 122 A heavy. It includes Safe Torque Off (STO) rated SIL 3 and an integrated EMC filter compliant with IEC 61800-3 category C3.

Control supply and fieldbus options

The drive accepts an external 24 V DC supply for digital inputs (19...30 V) and provides an internal 10.5 V DC ±5 % supply for a reference potentiometer (1 to 10 kΩ). It also supplies 24 V DC (21...27 V) for digital inputs and STO. Communication options include slot A modules for Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, CANopen, EtherCAT, and dual RJ45 Ethernet IP/Modbus TCP ports plus one RJ45 Modbus serial port. Modbus serial runs at 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4 kbit/s; Ethernet ports at 10/100 Mbit/s.

Protection and safety

Protection functions cover thermal protection for motor and drive, motor phase break, overcurrent between output phases and earth, short-circuit, overvoltage/undervoltage on the DC bus and line supply, line phase loss, overspeed, and break on the control circuit.
