Schneider Electric ATV71HC16N4 Reversing frequency converter

Product Description

Schneider Electric ATV71HC16N4 is a high-performance heavy-duty variable speed drive of Altivar 71 (ATV71) series, rated for 160kW (250HP) 3-phase asynchronous motors with 380~480V 3-phase power supply. It is built-in with Class A EMC filter and graphic HMI panel. It supports sensorless and closed-loop flux vector control, delivering peak 220% overload torque for short duration and maintaining high low-speed torque. It integrates STO Safe Torque Off and rich programmable logic, compatible with various optional fieldbus cards for high-shock and high-starting-torque heavy machinery. Certified to CE and UL. This model is discontinued, commonly used as spare replacement, recommended replacement ATV930C16N4.
