The VW3AE0657 is a sinus filter from the Altivar 71 Plus range, designed as a protection accessory for Altivar floor-standing enclosures with separate air flows or compact versions. It cleans the motor voltage waveform from the drive output, reducing motor heating and bearing currents on long cable runs.
Schneider Electric lists this part as Obsolete. The field shows 'mature', which on this line aligns with end-of-production status.
As a sinus filter, this accessory is not rated by current or voltage in the available spec record — its role is waveform conditioning, not power switching. The key fit criterion is the destination: it mounts inside an Altivar floor-standing enclosure with separate air flows or the compact version. If your drive cabinet is a wall-mount IP20 unit, this filter will not physically integrate.
