ATV650U15N4E Telemecanique

What type of industrial equipment is this?

This is a variable speed drive from the Altivar Process ATV600 range. It is designed to control motor speed and torque in process and utilities applications, helping regulate equipment such as pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors and mixers.

What motor power rating does this drive cover?

The ATV650U15N4E is rated for 1.5 kW in normal-duty operation and 0.75 kW in heavy-duty operation. This makes it suitable for smaller three-phase motor control applications where controlled acceleration, deceleration and speed regulation are required.

What supply voltage is required?

This drive is designed for a three-phase supply in the 380 to 480 V range, with a supply frequency of 50/60 Hz. The rated supply tolerance is 380 to 480 V, -15% to +10%.

What enclosure protection rating does it have?

It has an IP55 degree of protection, meaning it is built for wall-mounted installations where enhanced protection against dust ingress and water jets is required, subject to correct installation practices.

Does this drive include an EMC filter?

Yes. It has an integrated EMC filter, with conformity stated for EN/IEC 61800-3 category C2 up to 50 m and category C3 up to 150 m, depending on installation conditions and cable length.

Which motor types can it control?

This drive is intended for use with asynchronous motors and synchronous motors. Its control profiles include constant torque, variable torque, synchronous reluctance motor and permanent magnet motor operation.

What communication options are available?

The drive includes Modbus serial and Ethernet communication capability. It also allows integration with several optional communication modules, including PROFINET, DeviceNet, Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP, CANopen, BACnet MS/TP, Ethernet Powerlink and Profibus DP V1.

What inputs and outputs are provided?

The unit includes 8 discrete inputs, 3 analogue inputs, 2 analogue outputs and 3 relay outputs. These I/O features allow the drive to interface with control panels, sensors, selector switches, relays and automation systems.

What are the physical dimensions and weight?

The drive measures approximately 264 mm wide, 678 mm high and 300 mm deep. The product weight is around 10.5 kg, while the packed weight is listed as 12.5 kg.

How is it mounted?

It is designed for wall mounting in a vertical position, with an operating position tolerance of plus or minus 10 degrees. Sufficient clearance and ventilation should be considered because the unit uses forced convection cooling.

What ambient temperature range can it operate in?

The operating range is -15 to 40 °C without derating, and 40 to 50 °C with derating. For storage, the stated range is -40 to 70 °C.

What protection functions are included?

The drive includes a range of protection functions for the motor and drive, including thermal protection, overcurrent protection, DC bus overvoltage protection, line supply overvoltage and undervoltage protection, output phase-to-earth short-circuit protection, motor phase break monitoring and overspeed protection.

What industries commonly use this type of drive?

This type of drive is commonly used in water and wastewater, HVAC, food and beverage processing, oil and gas, mining, minerals and metals, and general process manufacturing applications.

What applications is it particularly suited to?

It is suited to applications such as centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps, fans, screw compressors, centrifugal compressors, mixers, conveyors, electro-submersible pumps, water injection pumps and other process utility equipment.

What output frequency range is available?

The speed drive output frequency range is 0.1 to 500 Hz. The nominal switching frequency is 4 kHz, with an adjustable switching frequency range stated as 2 to 12 kHz, or 4 to 12 kHz with derating.
