ATV340U15N4

What is this drive typically used for?

This is a cabinet-mounted variable speed drive designed for machine applications where controlled motor speed, torque and acceleration are needed. It is well suited to industrial equipment that benefits from adjustable motor performance, compact installation and flexible control options.

What motor power is it rated for?

The drive is rated at 1.5 kW in heavy duty use and 2.2 kW in normal duty use. In horsepower terms, that corresponds to 2 hp heavy duty and 3 hp normal duty.

What power supply does it require?

It is intended for a 3-phase supply with a rated input voltage of 380 to 480 V and a supply frequency of 50 to 60 Hz, with a tolerance of +/- 5%.

Can it work with different motor types?

Yes. It is designed for use with both asynchronous motors and synchronous motors, including permanent magnet and reluctance motor applications. That makes it a flexible choice for a wide range of machine builds and retrofits.

Does it have an integrated EMC filter?

Yes. This drive includes an integrated Class C3 EMC filter, which can be helpful where EMC performance is an important consideration within the panel design.

What communication options are available?

The unit includes Modbus serial communication as standard over RS485. It also supports optional communication modules for networks such as Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, CANopen and EtherCAT.

What input and output connections does it provide?

The drive offers a broad control interface for machine integration. It includes 5 programmable digital inputs, dedicated STO inputs, a pulse input, 2 analogue inputs, 1 configurable analogue output, 2 programmable digital outputs and 2 relay outputs. This allows it to fit a wide variety of control schemes without needing extensive external interfacing.

Does it support preset speeds?

Yes. It supports 16 preset speeds, which is useful in applications where repeatable operating points are needed without constantly adjusting the reference value.

What is the enclosure rating and mounting style?

It has an IP20 protection rating and is intended for cabinet mounting. This means it is designed for installation inside a suitable electrical enclosure rather than for exposed field mounting.

What size is the drive?

The overall dimensions are approximately 85 mm wide, 270 mm high and 232.5 mm deep, with a product weight of about 1.7 kg. The ATV340U15N4 is therefore relatively compact for a 400 V machine drive in this power class.

How much installation space should be allowed around it?

Recommended clearance values are 100 mm above, 100 mm below and 60 mm at the side. Side-by-side mounting is possible at ambient temperatures up to 50°C, while individual mounting is recommended with additional spacing when operating between 50°C and 60°C.

What ambient conditions is it designed for?

The drive can operate from -15°C to 50°C without derating in vertical mounting, and up to 60°C with derating. It can be installed at altitudes up to 1000 m without derating, and up to 3000 m with current derating above 1000 m.

Does it use forced cooling?

Yes. The drive uses forced convection cooling. This should be considered when planning panel airflow and thermal management.

What output frequency range does it offer?

It provides an output frequency range from 0.1 to 599 Hz. The switching frequency is adjustable from 2 to 16 kHz, with derating applying at higher settings.
