The Schneider Electric Altivar 31C is an enclosed inverter drive for applications of 0.18 to 15kW requiring an IP55 environment, and allowing the drive to be mounted close to the motor replacing a DOL or other starter.  Designed for use with simple machines, the ATV31C is available for 200/240V single phase or 380/500V three phase supplies.

The unit is supplied with an integrated display and keypad with local stop and run controls and scrolling menu keys.  Modbus and CANopen industrial communication protocols are provided as standard, and the  range complies with major international standards and specifications including  IEC 61800-5-1, IEC 61800-2 and IEC 61800-3; UL, CSA and GOST certification; CE marking.

IP55Enclosure

As with the standard enclosure versions the drives are easily configurable with Schneider Electric UK’s standard tools, and drive configurations can be loaded, printed and saved using the remote display terminal, SoMove setup software or the Simple Loader configuration tool.

ATV31C is suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications, including:

– Material handling (conveyors, hoists, etc.)

– Packing and packaging machines (labelling machines, sack filling machines, etc.)

– Pumping applications (suction pumps, centrifugal pumps, circulating pumps, mono-pump and multi-pump stations, etc.)

– Machines equipped with fans (air or smoke extraction, plastic film making machines, ovens, boilers, washing machines, etc.)

– Specialist machines (mixers, kneaders, textile machines, etc.)

The standard drive includes an external heat-sink and incorporated level A EMC filters (conducted and radiated) in ATV 31C**M2 and ATV 31C**N4 drives simplifies the installation of machines and provides an economical means of meeting CE marking requirements.

Optional accessories include Braking resistors, line chokes, RJ45 connector with IP 55 cable.
