ATV71H037M3
Schneider Electric
Overview
The ATV71H037M3 is a Variable speed drive in the Altivar 71 range from Schneider Electric. It controls AC motors from a 200...240 V - 15...10 % supply and is configured through the Altivar parameter set.
Application & Technical Notes
As a variable speed drive, the ATV71H037M3 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Altivar variable speed drive equipment is installed. It regulates the speed, torque and position of an AC motor to match the process demand while protecting the mechanical train.
Key published characteristics include a 200...240 V - 15...10 % rating, an operating temperature range of 14…122 °F (-10…50 °C) (without derating). These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Respect the published operating temperature window (14…122 °F (-10…50 °C) (without derating)); do not exceed it during commissioning or in enclosed panels without airflow. For storage and transit, keep the unit within -13…158 °F (-25…70 °C). Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is 5…95 % without condensation IEC 60068-2-3; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Maintain clearances for cooling, back up the motor parameter file, and verify the thermal setting matches the driven load. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the ATV71H037M3, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine Schneider Electric stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Match the drive rating, supply voltage and motor parameters, and confirm the option cards and communication profile required by the application. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Description
| Note | The ATV71H037M3 model is a variable speed drive developed by Schneider Electric, purposefully designed for three-phase motor management. This drive functions effectively with a power rating of 0.37 kW, translating to a horsepower capacity of 0.5 hp. It operates at input voltages between 200 and 240 V AC, making it suitable for various industrial applications. The drive can withstand line currents of 3.1 A to 3.5 A, and its apparent power reaches 1.3 kVA. It is built with an integrated EMC filter, which plays a critical role in reducing electromagnetic interference, thus facilitating dependable operation in environments where electrical noise may be present. A key feature is its capability to manage output frequencies from 0.1 Hz up to 599 Hz, providing a wide range of control for motor speeds. For installation flexibility, the maximum permissible length for the motor cable is 100 meters. The drive is constructed with a heat sink assembly style to help efficiently dissipate heat during operation, ensuring longevity and reliability. In addition, the prospective line current stands at 5 kA, supporting robust performance during fault conditions. Tightening torque specifications are noted at 5.3 lbf.in, ensuring secure connections within the system. The insulation resistance exceeds 1 Megaohm when tested at 500 V DC for one minute, confirming solid safety against grounding issues. To enhance integration capabilities, the drive features communication ports that support CANopen and Modbus protocols, allowing for streamlined data exchange with other devices. |
