SCHNEIDER ALTIVAR 310

Schneider Altivar 310 AC Drive

Easy Altivar 310 for Reliable & Cost-Effective Machine Motor Control

The Schneider Altivar 310 AC Drive is a compact variable speed drive developed for industrial machines requiring reliable speed control, straightforward commissioning and practical motor-control functionality.

Schneider Electric positions the Easy Altivar 310 particularly for industrial machine applications. The current range covers 0.37 kW to 30 kW (0.5 HP to 40 HP) for three-phase 380–460 V asynchronous motors.

We Tech Power Solutions Ltd supplies Schneider Electric Altivar drives and industrial automation products from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, supporting OEMs, machine builders, panel manufacturers and industrial customers across India.

Where Altivar 310 Fits in Industrial Automation

Not every machine requires a high-end motion drive. Many applications simply need dependable variable-speed motor control with easy installation and commissioning.

The ATV310 is suitable for applications such as:

• Conveyors

• Fans and blowers

• Pumps

• Material-handling equipment

• Packaging machines

• Small production machines

• Industrial machinery

• OEM equipment

• Utility and auxiliary machinery

This makes the Altivar 310 a practical choice when the primary requirement is controlled motor speed rather than complex multi-axis motion.

Motor Control That Adapts to the Load

A key feature of the ATV310 is its embedded U/F and sensorless vector control. Schneider highlights these control methods across its current ATV310 product references.

U/F Control

U/F control can be used for straightforward applications where predictable speed regulation is required without complex motor-control requirements.

Sensorless Vector Control

Sensorless vector control provides a more advanced method of controlling motor behaviour without requiring a physical speed sensor in suitable applications.

The appropriate control mode should be selected according to the motor, load characteristics and required performance.

Heavy Duty & Normal Duty Ratings

One important aspect of selecting an Altivar 310 VFD is understanding the difference between Heavy Duty and Normal Duty ratings.

For example, Schneider's ATV310HD22N4E is specified as:

• Heavy Duty: 22 kW / 30 HP

• Normal Duty: 30 kW / 40 HP

• Supply: 380–460 V

• Three-phase

• C3 EMC embedded

Similarly, the ATV310HD15N4E provides a 15 kW Heavy Duty rating and 18.5 kW Normal Duty rating.

This means drive selection should not be based only on the motor's nominal kW. The machine's load profile, overload requirements and duty category should also be considered.

Easy Installation & Commissioning

The ATV310 is designed with installation simplicity in mind. Schneider highlights the range as easy to install and easy to commission, while current product references provide mounting and wiring documentation for panel installation.

This can be beneficial for:

• OEM machine builders

• Control-panel manufacturers

• Industrial maintenance teams

• Machine retrofit projects

• Production-line upgrades

Before installation, the selected reference should be checked for its mounting dimensions, ventilation clearance, wiring arrangement and environmental conditions.

Compact Drive for Machine Panels

Control-panel space can become a significant issue in compact machines. ATV310 is designed as a practical machine drive, allowing manufacturers to integrate variable-speed motor control without using unnecessarily large drive equipment.

For machine builders, this can help with:

• Compact panel layouts

• Simplified drive installation

• Standardized machine designs

• Easier commissioning

• Reduced engineering complexity

Exact physical dimensions and mounting requirements vary by ATV310 reference.

Applications of Schneider Altivar 310

Conveyor Systems

ATV310 can provide controlled acceleration, deceleration and operating speed for conveyor applications.

Pumps

Variable-speed operation can be used for selected pumping applications where process requirements change during operation.

Fans & Blowers

The drive can regulate motor speed according to ventilation or airflow requirements.

Packaging Machinery

Suitable for selected packaging equipment where controlled motor speed is required for conveyors, feeders and machine mechanisms.

Material Handling

Can be integrated into industrial handling systems requiring variable-speed motor operation.

Production Equipment

Useful for auxiliary and process machinery where dependable motor-speed control is required.

OEM Machinery

Its straightforward installation and commissioning characteristics make ATV310 suitable for machine manufacturers seeking a standardized AC drive platform.
