The Schneider Electric VW3A46098A is a passive filter designed for the Altivar Easy ATV610 variable speed drive family. It sits between the drive and the line, cleaning up the current harmonics the drive injects back into the supply network. Rated at 1.7 A and 400 V three-phase, it pairs with a 0.75 kW / 1.1 kW motor load on the ATV610. The filter knocks total harmonic current distortion (THDI) down to 10 % at the drive input — that is the figure that keeps you inside IEEE 519 limits for most industrial services without a bigger, costlier multi-pulse drive. Efficiency runs at 98 %.
Listed to UL 61800-5-1 and IEC 61800-5-1, the adjustable-speed drive power drive system safety standard. That covers both North American and international installs — one SKU for a panel built to either code. No end-of-life notice on this code. It is a current-production line item, not a phase-out or last-time-buy candidate.
Operating ambient range is -25 to 45 °C without current derating; storage goes from -25 to 85 °C in the original packaging.
