The Schneider ATV12H018M3 is a compact and robust variable speed drive designed for three-phase motors with a power rating of 0.18 kW. This versatile drive operates at a frequency range of 0.5 to 400 Hz, providing precise control over motor speed and enhancing the performance of simple machines. Its user-friendly interface, including a Modbus communication port, allows for seamless integration into various industrial applications.

Engineered for cabinet mounting, the ATV12H018M3 is equipped with an array of inputs and outputs, including four discrete inputs, two discrete outputs, one analogue input, and one analogue output, facilitating flexible configuration for diverse operational requirements. The absence of an EMC filter and a built-in fan simplifies the drive's design, ensuring straightforward maintenance.

The drive's IP20 degree of protection ensures it is safeguarded against solid objects larger than 12mm, although it should be installed within a secondary enclosure for full protection in industrial environments. The ATV12H018M3 is compliant with several international standards, including UL, CSA, and C-Tick, affirming its quality and reliability.

With its adjustable PID regulator, the drive offers efficient process control, making it suitable for a range of applications such as mixers, conveyors, and fans. Its compact dimensions and silent operation (0 dB noise level) make it an unobtrusive yet powerful component in any setup.

The Schneider ATV12H018M3 is a testament to Schneider Electric's commitment to sustainability, adhering to environmental regulations such as REACh, WEEE, and the EU RoHS Directive, ensuring a greener footprint while delivering industrial-grade performance.

What applications is this variable speed drive suitable for?

The Schneider variable speed drive is designed for simple machine applications, such as small conveyors, fans, and pumps, providing efficient speed control to asynchronous motors.

Can this drive be mounted in any position?

The drive should be mounted vertically with a +/- 10 degree flexibility. It's important to adhere to this to ensure proper operation and ventilation.

What is the power capacity of this variable speed drive?

This variable speed drive has a power capacity of 0.18 kW, which is suitable for controlling motors with similar power requirements.

Does this drive come with an EMC filter?

No, the Schneider variable speed drive does not include an EMC filter. However, it is designed to comply with EMC standards when used with the appropriate external filtering.

What is the frequency range that this drive can output?

The drive can output frequencies from 0.5 to 400 Hz, allowing for a wide range of speed control for connected motors.

Is there a braking resistor integrated into the drive?

No, there is no integrated braking resistor in this model. However, it can provide up to 70% of nominal motor torque without a braking resistor.

What type of motor control profile does the drive use?

The drive utilises sensorless flux vector control and a quadratic voltage/frequency ratio for motor control.

What are the communication capabilities of this drive?

This drive is equipped with a Modbus communication port protocol, allowing for integration into systems that support this standard.

What is the ambient operating temperature range for this drive?

The drive can operate in ambient temperatures from -10 to 40°C without derating, and up to 60°C with current derating.

How does this drive handle overcurrent protection?

The drive has built-in protection against overcurrent between output phases and earth, as well as short-circuit protection between motor phases.
