The Schneider ATV610U55N4 is a compact VFD from the Altivar 610 range, built for precise 5.5kW (7.5HP ND) motor control in pumps, fans, conveyors, and compressors—delivering efficient speed/torque regulation for industrial automation and plant uptime.
Engineered for everyday reliability, the ATV610U55N4 delivers 5.5kW (normal duty, 12.7A at 4kHz) and 4kW (heavy duty, 9.3A at 4kHz), handling 14A transient for 60s. The cabinet-mount design is IP20 with a small footprint (H 297mm / 350mm with EMC plate, W 145mm, D 203mm, 4.575kg) and operates from −15…60°C up to 95% RH. Control flexibility includes an output frequency of 0.1…500Hz, 2…12kHz switching, 16 preset speeds, and independent linear/S/U ramps from 0.01…9000s. Three analog inputs (0–10V / 0–20mA), two analog outputs, and six digital inputs (with pulse up to 30kHz) support both asynchronous and synchronous motors, while RS-485 Modbus RTU with RJ45 simplifies PLC/SCADA integration and remote diagnostics.
Trusted in utility rooms and production lines, this Schneider 5.5kW VFD integrates a C3-class EMC filter (IEC61800-3) and comprehensive protections—thermal (motor/drive), overcurrent, short-circuit, over/undervoltage, phase loss, overspeed, and DC-bus events—plus DC injection braking and three durable relay outputs (100,000 cycles) for interlocks and alarms. Low acoustic noise (~55dB) and straightforward screw-terminal wiring (control 0.5…1.5mm², power 2.5…16mm²) make commissioning fast and repeatable.
