Excellent PLC
Product Introduction
The Schneider ATV212HU40N4 Variable Speed Drive is part of the Altivar 212 series, designed to feed three-phase asynchronous motors with high efficiency and reliability. Featuring a built-in EMC filter and an IP21 protection rating, this drive ensures disturbance-free operation in commercial and industrial environments.
Rated for power up to 4 kW (5 HP) and a voltage range from 380 V to 480 V AC, the ATV212HU40N4 is specifically engineered for energy-efficient motor control. Its design follows eco-energy principles, offering up to 70% reduction in energy consumption compared to conventional control systems.
Additionally, the drive incorporates cable temperature rise reduction technology, eliminating the need for additional line chokes or DC chokes to manage current harmonics. This ensures immediate and stable operation in sensitive applications.
