About ATV12HU22M3 Schneider VFD
Product Description
Schneider Electric ATV12HU22M3 Altivar Machine ATV12 is an offer of variable speed drives for commercial equipment and simple machines. It works at a rated power up to 2.2kW / 3hp and a rated voltage from 200V to 240V AC. It is designed with heatsink for normal environments and fan-cooled enclosure. It has advanced PID and catch on the fly functions, basic cabling, and easy motor control setting. Based on the needs, it can be delivered without heatsink, with embedded EMC filter, or as standard version. The Altivar 12 drive integrates as standard the Modbus communication protocol. This Altivar Machine ATV12 is designed for simple applications, in industry, commercial machines and HVAC machines such as conveyors, pumps, extractors, access barriers and treadmills. It conforms to IEC, UL and other international standards. SoMove software compatibility enables saving and transfering of configurations to spare drive, reducing maintenance downtime. It features an optimized application of power and torque for ventilation and pumping applications, this allows up to 30% energy savings. We are dedicatedly involved in providing an excellent quality products at Electrihub. View Less

FAQs of ATV12HU22M3 Schneider VFD:
Q: How is the ATV12HU22M3 Schneider VFD installed and connected?
A: The ATV12HU22M3 is designed for quick panel mounting with screw terminal connections. It features screw clamp terminals that securely connect three-phase input and output wires, along with dedicated terminals for analog and digital control inputs, outputs, and communication via Modbus (RS485).
Q: What are the primary benefits of using the ATV12HU22M3 VFD in industrial applications?
A: Key benefits include compact size, high efficiency (>95%), integrated EMC filter for noise compliance, dynamic braking, extensive input/output options, and robust safety features including overheating protection. This makes it suitable for demanding industrial motor control requiring reliable variable speed operation.
Q: When is it necessary to use the integrated dynamic braking feature?
A: The dynamic braking unit is useful when rapid deceleration of the motor is required. This is important in applications where sudden stops are needed for safety or process control, such as conveyors, hoists, and machine tools.
Q: Where can the ATV12HU22M3 operate without derating its performance?
A: This VFD is engineered to perform at full capacity up to 1000 meters altitude without requiring power derating, and it reliably operates in ambient temperatures between -10C to +50C and storage temperatures as low as -25C to as high as +70C.
Q: How does the built-in EMC filter benefit industrial users?
A: The integrated EMC filter helps minimize electrical noise and interference, ensuring compliance with IEC/EN 61800-3 standards and enabling smoother operation of nearby sensitive electronic devices in industrial environments.
Q: What process is followed to configure the control modes on this VFD?
A: Setup is completed via the LED digital display interface. Users can easily select between V/F, V/F quadratic, and variable speed control modes through menu navigation, allowing adaptation to specific motor and process requirements.
