Schneider ATV930D15N4 Variable Speed Drive

Overview

The Schneider Electric ATV930D15N4 is a 15kW variable speed drive from the Altivar Process ATV900 series. It supports 3-phase 380–480V motors and delivers high-performance control for industrial processes. The drive works with both asynchronous and synchronous motors, offering advanced process monitoring and embedded energy measurement. Its integrated braking unit improves dynamic performance, while IP21 protection ensures reliable operation. Designed for vertical wall-mount installation, the drive provides flexible communication options for deep automation integration. The ATV930D15N4 helps optimize energy use with Stop & Go functions. Network services maintain operation even during communication interruptions. A built-in web server and data logging accelerate troubleshooting and preventive maintenance. It supports master/slave configurations and provides total control for any coupling type.
