ATV310HU55N4E Variable Frequency Drive Altivar 310 5.5kW 3-ф/380

ATV310HU55N4E: Schneider Electric Altivar 310 variable frequency drive rated at 5.5 kW (3-phase 380 V input, 3-phase 380 V output). We use it for a simple conveyor, mixer, fan, or pump when the project needs Altivar diagnostics and a predictable automation path.

• Parameters: 12.6 A output current, IP20, 150% overload, maximum frequency 400 Hz.
• What matters: ATV310 is simple to commission: Modbus/RS-485, built-in brake module, and basic I/O without unnecessary automation overhead.
• Check before use: The product data does not list an EMC filter, so long motor cables or sensitive automation should be discussed with a filter and choke.

Schneider Electric Altivar 310: where this series fits

Altivar 310 is an entry-level three-phase series for simple mechanisms where price and fast startup matter. Our catalog currently has 8 active items in this series: 0.7-11 kW, supply variants 3-phase 380 V, IP20 enclosures, EMC filter: no. Schneider Electric is not the cheapest route. The usual reason is simpler: Altivar diagnostics, SoMove, documentation, and a predictable cabinet startup.

Typical jobs for Altivar 310

• Common mechanisms: conveyors, mixers, fans, simple pumps, and small production machines.
• Selection: first check motor current, load duty, supply voltage, IP rating, and motor cable length.
• Commissioning: with Altivar, define the command source, speed reference, network protocol, and braking need before wiring.

When Altivar 310 is not the right drive

We do not recommend Altivar 310 for a long motor cable without an EMC plan or a machine that needs safety and fieldbus options. In those jobs, another Schneider Electric series may be more logical, or INVT / Veichi may be enough when the project does not specifically require Altivar.

Our field note

Schneider Electric is usually chosen for sites with BMS, SCADA, or an older Altivar already in the cabinet. Predictability matters there. Before ordering we ask for a motor nameplate photo and a short mechanism description. That filters out 220/380 V, IP, and braking mistakes early.
