Core Advantages
1. Integrated Energy Management and Process Control
The ATV630D55M3 goes beyond simple motor speed control. It incorporates embedded power measurement and an energy dashboard that tracks kWh consumption, operating hours, and cost data directly on the drive's display. The built-in process monitoring and control functions, including a PID regulator, enable the drive to manage flow, pressure, or temperature loops without a separate controller, reducing system cost and complexity .
2. Significant Energy Savings with Stop and Go
The innovative Stop and Go function automatically places the drive into a standby state during periods of no demand, dramatically reducing energy consumption. When combined with variable speed operation instead of fixed-speed control, the ATV630 can achieve up to 30% energy savings in pump and fan applications .
3. Comprehensive Connectivity and Web Server
With native Ethernet and Modbus TCP built in, the ATV630D55M3 integrates seamlessly into modern plant networks without additional modules. Optional communication modules support virtually every major industrial protocol including Profibus DP, PROFINET, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, and CANopen .
4. Robust Process Reliability and Protection
The drive features comprehensive motor and process protection including drift monitoring, asset monitoring, and output phase loss detection. The STO (Safe Torque Off) function is certified to SIL 3, enabling implementation of functional safety systems without external safety contactors, reducing wiring and cabinet space requirements .
5. Compact All-in-One Design
The ATV630D55M3 integrates the drive and communication interfaces in a single unit, reducing panel space and installation time. Its “all-in-one” concept minimizes the number of components required, simplifying procurement and reducing total cost of ownership.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the Schneider Electric ATV630D55M3?
It is a high-power Altivar Process ATV630 variable frequency drive rated at 55 kW (75 HP) for normal duty operation. It is designed for fluid and gas handling applications including pumping, fan, and compressor control in industrial processes .
Q2: What is the power rating of this drive?
The ATV630D55M3 is rated at 55 kW / 75 HP for normal duty and 45 kW / 60 HP for heavy duty .
Q3: What is the difference between normal duty and heavy duty?
Normal duty (ND) is for applications requiring slight overload (up to 110-120%) with a motor power no higher than the drive nominal power. Heavy duty (HD) is for applications requiring significant overload (up to 150%) with a motor power no higher than the drive nominal power de-rated by one rating. The ATV630D55M3 is rated 55 kW in ND mode and 45 kW in HD mode.
Q4: What communication protocols are supported?
Standard protocols include Modbus TCP, Ethernet, and Modbus Serial. Optional communication modules enable Profibus DP V1, PROFINET, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, CANopen, BACnet MS/TP, and Ethernet Powerlink .
Q5: What is the protection class of this drive?
The ATV630D55M3 has an IP00 protection class (open frame, requires cabinet installation). It can be upgraded to IP21 with the optional kit VW3A9705 .
Q6: Does this drive include a safety function?
Yes. The ATV630D55M3 includes STO (Safe Torque Off) certified to SIL 3, enabling implementation of functional safety systems without external contactors .
Q7: What is the operating temperature range?
The drive operates within standard industrial temperature ranges. Consult product documentation for specific derating requirements.
Q8: What are the dimensions and weight?
Dimensions are approximately 290 mm wide × 922 mm high × 323 mm deep. Weight varies by configuration.
Q9: What is the Stop and Go function?
The Stop and Go function automatically places the drive into a low-energy standby state when there is no demand, reducing energy consumption during idle periods. This feature supports up to 30% energy savings in pump and fan applications .
Q10: What is the maximum output frequency?
The output frequency range is 0.1 to 500 Hz .
Q11: Does this drive include an EMC filter?
No. The ATV630D55M3 is supplied without an integrated EMC filter .
