Built-in EMC Filter and IP20 Protection

One of the critical features of the ATV12HU22M2 is the integrated EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) filter, which helps reduce electromagnetic interference. This feature ensures the drive can operate in environments where minimal electronic disturbance is critical, maintaining signal integrity and reducing potential issues with surrounding equipment. Additionally, the drive is protected by an IP20 rating, which protects against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm, which provides sufficient safeguarding in many industrial settings where foreign particles might be present. However, for additional protection from dust and moisture, installing the drive inside a cabinet is recommended.

Power Supply and Communication

This model operates on a supply voltage of 200 to 240 volts with a tolerance range of -15% to +10% and a supply frequency of 50/60 Hz +/- 5%. It supports the Modbus communication protocol, widely used for industrial communication between automation devices. The ATV12HU22M2’s communication capabilities are further enhanced by including a 2-wire RS485 interface and an RJ45 connector, allowing it to connect and integrate into various automation networks easily. This communication flexibility ensures smooth integration into existing systems, enabling effective real-time control and monitoring.

Inputs, Outputs, and Control Features

The ATV12HU22M2 has four discrete inputs and two outputs, allowing for reliable control of external devices or additional system components. The drive also includes one analog input and one analog output, which provide smooth and precise speed control for the motor. The drive also offers a relay output, enhancing its capacity to interface with other system components. These input and output options make the drive adaptable for a wide range of applications, offering versatility in its ability to control various processes within a system.

Performance and Operational Range

With a maximum horsepower of 3 hp, the ATV12HU22M2 is well-suited for small to medium-sized motors. The nominal output current is 10 A, and the drive operates at a continuous output current of 10 A at 4 kHz. It has an output frequency range of 0.5 to 400 Hz, allowing it to control motor speed across a wide range precisely. Additionally, the speed range of 1 to 20 ensures that the drive can meet the specific operational needs of various machinery. This level of control is crucial for applications that require precise motor speed adjustments for enhanced efficiency and productivity.
