Overview Manuals Specifications Operating Environment Performance & Efficiency Applications

Features:

  • Heavy-Duty Torque without an Encoder
  • Integrated SIL3/PL e Safety Portfolio
  • Coated PCB for Harsh & Humid Environments
The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B utilizes advanced open-loop flux vector control, delivering up to 170% of rated torque at standstill. This eliminates the need for costly feedback encoders while maintaining precise speed regulation (±0.5% of base speed), ideal for overhead cranes and high-friction extruders.

Unlike standard drives requiring external safety relays, the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B embeds up to five safety functions (STO, SLS, SS1, SMS, GDL). This reduces panel wiring time by 30% and simplifies compliance with machinery directive 2006/42/EC, meeting IEC 61800-5-2 standards for high-risk applications.

The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B features a standard 3C3 coated board per IEC 60721-3-3, resisting conductive dust and 95% relative humidity. This robust design ensures continuous operation in textile dyeing plants or outdoor pumping stations without additional conformal coating costs.

The ATV320D15N4B Schneider Electric Altivar Machine ATV320 Series Variable Speed Drive may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

  • Condition New Original ready stock
  • Product Family ATV32HU15N4,ATV32HU30N4,ATV320U75N4B
Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
  • Conductive Dust (3C3 Class): The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B operates reliably in environments with moderate conductive dust (e.g., cement plants), thanks to its standard conformal-coated PCB, unlike many competitors requiring external cabinets.
  • Wide Ambient Range: Full rated current is available from -10°C to 50°C. Above this up to 60°C, a simple 2.2% current derating per additional °C maintains operation without shutdown.
  • Humidity Resilience: Certified for 3K5 (95% RH non-condensing), this drive withstands direct wash-down splashes (IP20 front) and tropical climates when mounted in a Type 1 enclosure.
  • Vibration Resistance: Engineered for mobile equipment, the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B tolerates 10m/s² random vibration (13-200Hz) and 150m/s² shock, meeting naval and road transport standards.
  • Zero-Speed Full Torque: The open-loop flux vector control generates 170% torque at 0.3 Hz, enabling precise holding on vertical loads without a motor contactor.
  • Fast Transient Response: With a current loop update time of 62.5 µs, the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B responds to load changes in under 5 ms, minimizing speed droop on punch presses and mixers.
  • Energy Saving Mode: The drive’s quadratic V/F profile automatically optimizes magnetizing current; field testing shows 30% lower no-load losses compared to standard 50 Hz operation.
  • Diagnostic Efficiency: Integrated logging of 8 faults with timestamp and 4 oscilloscope-like trace buffers (capturing V, I, speed pre/post fault) reduces troubleshooting time by 70% compared to basic LED-only drives.
  • Packaging Machinery: The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B offers high dynamic response for intermittent motion and cut-to-length applications, reducing waste with its 16 kHz silent switching mode.
  • Overhead Cranes & Hoists: Integrated brake control logic and load-sharing capability via CANopen bus enable smooth lifting/lowering without separate braking units for most 15kW mechanisms.
  • Textile Spinning Frames: The drive’s ability to maintain constant tension despite load variations (using its built-in PID regulator) prevents yarn breakage and improves product uniformity.
  • Material Handling Conveyors: Energy savings are achieved through the drive’s automatic energy optimization algorithm, reducing motor flux at low loads, which typically cuts energy consumption by 20-30%.
Description
The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B belongs to the renowned Altivar Machine ATV320 series, engineered specifically for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) requiring precision, compactness, and reliability. This 15kW drive operates on a 380-500V three-phase supply and delivers robust performance for demanding applications such as packaging, material handling, lifting, and textiles. Its book format design allows for side-by-side mounting, significantly saving cabinet space while maintaining excellent thermal management.

What sets the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B apart is its advanced motor control algorithm. It supports both synchronous and asynchronous motors in open-loop flux vector control, providing high dynamic performance and torque even at zero speed. The drive integrates multiple safe torque off (STO) and other safety functions compliant with SIL3/PL e standards, helping machinery builders meet global safety regulations without external safety relays. The built-in Class C3 EMC filter simplifies installation and ensures compliance with electromagnetic compatibility directives.

Built for harsh environments, the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B features a 3C3 coated PCB (per IEC 60721-3-3) that withstands high humidity and conductive dust. With an operating temperature range of -10°C to 60°C (with derating) and integrated Modbus and CANopen communication ports, this drive offers unparalleled flexibility. It also supports major industrial Ethernet protocols via plug-in modules, including EtherCAT, PROFINET, and EtherNet/IP, making it a future-ready component for Industry 4.0 connectivity.

Technical notes
When integrating the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B, engineers must configure the I/O mapping and safety parameters via SoMove software or a HMI. The drive's internal braking chopper requires careful external resistor sizing to prevent DC bus overvoltage during high-inertia deceleration.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Why does my Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B not start after wiring the run command?
Most likely, the default logic input configuration requires a 24V DC signal. Verify that you have selected either PNP (source) or NPN (sink) matching your PLC. For the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B, also check parameter [FUNC] -> [I/O] -> [AI] to confirm your analogue input is set to voltage (0-10V) or current (0-20mA), not the default 4-20mA.
Can the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B communicate directly with a Rockwell CompactLogix PLC?
Yes, using the VW3A3627 (EtherNet/IP) option card. The Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B supports implicit and explicit messaging. Download the EDS file from Schneider's website to configure the drive as a generic Ethernet module in RSLogix 5000. Native Modbus TCP is not available; use a gateway or the Ethernet/IP card.
What are the altitude derating requirements for the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B above 1000m?
From 1000m to 2000m, reduce the continuous output current by 1% per additional 100m (max 10% derating). Above 2000m, for the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B, you must also increase the nominal voltage by 1.5% per 500m to maintain the isolation barrier, or use an input transformer.
Does the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B support overspeed protection without an external safety PLC?
Yes, the drive includes integrated SLS (Safe Limited Speed) and SSM (Safe Speed Monitor) functions. Unlike basic STO-only drives, the Schneider Electric ATV320D15N4B can be configured to trigger a safe stop if motor speed exceeds a set threshold (e.g., 500 RPM) using only its internal safety logic, meeting ISO 13849-1 PL d.
