Easy Altivar 320

Smart variable speed drive from 0.18 to 15kW (0.25 to 20Hp)
Part of Altivar
Altivar Machine ATV320, a variable speed drive designed for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) that meets simple and advanced application requirements for 3 Phase synchronous and asynchronous motors from 0.18 to 15 kW (0.25 to 20 Hp).
- The Altivar Machine ATV320 variable speed drive improves machine effectiveness in a wide variety of applications.
Altivar Machine ATV320 was designed to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of machines, while optimizing design and engineering costs for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Enhanced automation capabilities
The Altivar Machine ATV320 matches a variety of machine throughput requirements with the following features:
- Open-loop motor control combined with simplicity for asynchronous and synchronous motors, even at low speed and dynamic accuracy for start/stop applications,
- Advanced connectivity with automation architectures such as CANopen, EtherNet/IP - Modbus TCP, EtherCAT, Profibus, Profinet, DeviceNet.
- Application specific functions and ATVLogic bring the application expertise and flexibility into the machines.
Extended machine availability
The Altivar Machine ATV320 variable speed drives carry on their predecessors’ tradition of robustness and reliability.
- Continuous machine operation in harsh environments with high levels of ambient temperature, dust, electrical interruptions, or mechanical disturbances. Ability to work in ambients up to 60°C with derating and 50°C without derating.
- Maximized machine operation time, as production changes, maintenance, safety diagnostics and operation, network configuration, and system integration can all to be accomplished quickly.
Reduced total machine cost
The Altivar Machine ATV320 improves bottom line of the machine builders:
- Reduced installation costs, with both book and compact form factors reducing machine footprint, whether mounted in a machine frame or electrical cabinet
- Fewer additional devices needed to manage machine safety and simple logic functions, as both are managed internally within the drive
- Reduced engineering and design time thanks to ready-to-use, PLCopen-compliant libraries and tested, validated, documented architectures (TVDAs) available through Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure Machine solutions
Two form factors. book and compact engineered for easy, cost-effective integration with various machine layouts and for placement inside either cabinets or machine frames.
Advanced connectivity enables integration with many of the most common Ethernet and serial-based communication networks, from EtherNet IP to CANopen, complementing integration with Schneider Electric’s EcoStruxure Machine solutions and facilitating PLCopen compliance.
Reliably accurate motor control of both asynchronous and synchronous motors.
Robust design with IEC 60721-3-3 class 3C3 coated printed circuit boards to extend machine availability in harsh environmental conditions, for example at ambient temperatures of up to 60°C without the need of additional cooling.
Comprehensive embedded safety with, in addition to Safety Torque Off, four functions for full safety monitoring to simplify machine certification and compliance with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.

Drives for simple machines from 0.18 to 4 kW
Part of Altivar
Variable speed drives for small machines with three-phase 240 V 0.18 to 4 kW asynchronous motor
Designed for integration
- Advanced functions for increased productivity (integrated PID, multi-speed, etc.)
- Easy communication with machine components via integrated universal Modbus serial link
- Smaller footprint, as the baseplate mounted version dissipates heat into the machine frame
Highest quality
- Improved performance for your motors thanks to:
- The factory settings, which provide a high quality drive from the very first time the power is turned on
- The integration of Standard (U/f), Performance (sensorless flux vector control, or SVC) and Pump/Fan (quadratic profile Kn²) control profiles
- High dynamic performance on acceleration and braking
- Excellent speed regulation on machine load surges
- Reduced noise and maintenance
Designed for easy fitting and wiring:
- Easy access angles
- Numerous, easy to identify markings
- Fast detection and protection against motor current peaks (common in motor switching and catch on the fly applications)
- Perfect integration of single-phase 240 V model into the electrical network thanks to its built-in EMC filter
Save time on wiring
- Easy access to all the wiring and settings on the front panel
- Easy access angles
- Only one screwdriver needed for all connections
Save time on programming
- A navigation button for easy menu access: configure your application parameters in just a few clicks
- A three-level menu structure
- Reference Mode: In local operation (On/Off buttons) and for speed adjustment and display
- Monitoring Mode: For displaying parameters (create your own menu)
- Configuration Mode: For configuring your applications and settings
Save time on commissioning
- The drive can be configured before it is received (by the distributor), during storage (by the storekeeper) or during fitting before the electrical enclosure is powered up for the first time
- No adjustment is required and there is a quick start guide for immediate setup
- Ease of programming: Work in the language of your choice
- SoMove software for configuring on PC and transferring the configuration via Bluetooth® or using a cable
- Simple configuration transfer via Simple or Multi-Loader
Discreet in size but big on performance!
The Altivar 11 range is replaced by the Altivar 12 range.
