ATV610U55N4 Variable Frequency Drive Altivar 610 5.5 kW 3x380

ATV610U55N4: Schneider Electric Altivar 610 variable frequency drive rated at 5.5 kW (3-phase 380 V input, 3-phase 380 V output). We use it for a booster pump, fan, or small compressor when the project needs Altivar diagnostics and a predictable automation path.

• Parameters: 0 A output current, IP20, 120% overload, maximum frequency 500 Hz.
• What matters: This is the pump/fan side of Altivar Process; IP20/IP21 is best mounted in a ventilated cabinet.
• Check before use: Before commissioning, check motor current, load type, cable length, and the control method.

Schneider Electric Altivar 610: where this series fits

Altivar 610 is a process-drive series for industrial pumps, fans, and compressors. Our catalog currently has 20 active items in this series: 0.8-160 kW, supply variants 3-phase 380 V, IP20 enclosures, EMC filter: yes. 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 610

• Common mechanisms: water utilities, pump stations, AHUs, compressor rooms, and process ventilation.
• 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 610 is not the right drive

We do not recommend Altivar 610 for positioning, cranes, or heavy conveyors where the ATV900 line is the right family. 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.
