Description
Schneider ATV320D11N4C412 | Variable speed drive, Altivar Solar, 11kW, 380 to 500V, 3 phases, compact
The Schneider Altivar ATV320D11N4C412 is a compact variable speed drive (VSD) specifically designed for solar pump applications. It operates on a three-phase power supply ranging from 380 to 500V and has a rated power of 11 kW.
Key Features and Benefits
This drive is built to maximize the efficiency of solar-powered water pumping systems. Its key features include an integrated solar mode that allows it to directly control a motor using DC power from a solar panel array, even without an external AC grid connection. The drive also includes Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology, which optimizes the power output from the solar panels, ensuring the pump operates at its most efficient point throughout the day.
Its compact design and book-style form factor save space in electrical cabinets. The drive has various integrated safety functions, such as Safe Torque Off (STO), which helps prevent unexpected motor startup and simplifies machine safety compliance. It also offers advanced connectivity options, including integrated communication protocols like CANopen and Modbus, for easy integration into existing control systems.
Primary Applications
The Schneider Altivar ATV320D11N4C412 is primarily used in solar water pumping systems. It’s ideal for agricultural irrigation, livestock watering, and remote village water supply where a reliable AC power source is unavailable or too costly to install. By converting the variable DC power from solar panels into a stable AC output for a motor, it enables efficient and sustainable water management.
