Excellent PLC
Product Introduction
The Schneider ATV320U15M2C Variable Speed Drive is a compact and versatile motor control solution from the Altivar Machine ATV320 series. Designed specifically for OEM machine builders, it provides accurate speed and torque control for three-phase synchronous and asynchronous motors while helping improve machine efficiency, reliability, and energy performance.
Rated for motors up to 1.5 kW (2 hp), the ATV320U15M2C operates on a 200V–240V AC supply and is suitable for a wide variety of industrial automation applications. Its compact dimensions allow vertical installation and drive stacking inside machine cabinets, helping manufacturers optimize panel space and reduce overall machine footprint.
The drive incorporates advanced sensorless flux vector control technology, delivering excellent torque performance and speed accuracy, even at very low speeds. This capability improves machine responsiveness and process consistency while eliminating the need for additional feedback devices in many applications.
Built to withstand demanding industrial environments, the ATV320U15M2C features IEC 60721-3-3 Class 3C3 coated printed circuit boards that provide enhanced resistance against dust, humidity, and corrosive atmospheres. The drive can operate in ambient temperatures up to 60°C without requiring additional cooling under suitable conditions.
Integrated safety functions, energy-saving capabilities, and flexible motor compatibility make the ATV320U15M2C an ideal choice for packaging equipment, conveyors, textile machinery, material handling systems, and general-purpose industrial automation applications.
