This blog considers the cause of a motor overload fault (OLF) on Altivar drives. This applies to the following series: Altivar ATV12, ATV312, ATV32, ATV61, ATV71. Motor overload fault (OLF) is triggered by the motor pulling current above the ItH (Motor Them Current) that is programmed into the drive. The further above the ItH […]
Altivar 12 high functionality entry-level drives up to 4 kW. Altivar 12 (ATV12) is Schneider Electric’s entry level drive for small three-phase machines requiring variable speed control of synchronous motors up to 4 kW. Of particular interest to machine builders is the option to use the drive with or without the heatsink. […]
The Altivar 32 drive is a frequency inverter for 200 to 500 V three-phase asynchronous and synchronous motors rated from 0.18 to 15 kW. In combination with synchronous motors, Schneider Electric’s Altivar 32 variable speed drives offer optimized energy efficiency, and their high dynamic response optimizes application performance. The Altivar 32 variable speed drive is […]
Altivar ATV 61 offers fast energy saving returns Using Altivar ATV 61 inverter drives for saving energy on fan and pump motors offers some of the fastest returns in terms of payback time. In most cases fans and pumps do not need to run at full speed. They can be controlled manually […]
Schneider ATV212 low-harmonic energy saving HVAC drives. Altivar ATV212 from Schneider UK is a single series variable speed drive for energy saving for a wide range of HVAC applications up to 75 kW. It incorporates a range of functions specific to pumps and fans, including instant detection of system failure, belt breakage, pump […]
