Altivar 12 Drives

A design focussed on integration

Advanced functions for increased productivity (integrated PID, multi-speed, etc.)

Easy communication with all other machine components via integrated universal Modbus serial link

Smaller footprint, notably in terms of the depth of equipment, as the baseplate mounted version dissipates heat into the machine frame

No compromise on quality

Ever higher performance for your motors ensured by:

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 as well as on braking

Excellent speed regulation on machine load surges

Reduced noise and maintenance

Designed for easy fitting and wiring of the drive:

 

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

SoMove Mobile software for modifying or sending a configuration remotely via mobile phone

Applications

Simple machines for industry

Material handling (small conveyors, etc.)

Packaging (small labelling machines, small bagging machines)

Pumping applications (suction pumps, centrifugal pumps, circulating pumps, etc.)

Machines fitted with fans (air or smoke extraction, plastic film making machines, ovens, boilers, etc.)

Simple consumer machines

Handling (access barriers, rotating advertising hoardings)

Health (medical beds, running machines)

Food and drink (mills, kneading machines, mixers, etc.)

Other types of application

Food and drink (battery farming, greenhouses, etc.)

Mobile machines and small devices equipped with a power socket

Applications which traditionally use other solutions (2-speed DC motors, mechanical drives, etc.)
