Schneider Electric Altivar Machine ATV320 VFD – Smart Speed Control for Every Machine
The Schneider Electric Altivar Machine ATV320 is a compact, high-performance variable frequency drive (VFD) built for industrial machines. By changing the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor, the ATV320 lets you set the exact speed and torque your process needs – giving smooth soft starting, less mechanical stress, lower electricity bills and longer motor life.
Whether you run a garment factory, a water-pumping station, a food processing line or a packaging machine, the ATV320 inverter is a trusted choice in Bangladesh. PB SHOP BD supplies 100% original Schneider ATV320 drives with warranty and technical support for setup and parameter programming.
Key Features of Schneider ATV320
- Works with induction and PM motors – sensorless flux vector control gives high torque even at low speed.
- Built-in Safe Torque Off (STO, SIL3) plus SS1, SLS, GDL and SMS safety functions – reduces external safety components.
- Integrated communication – Modbus serial and CANopen standard; optional cards for EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, PROFINET, Profibus DP and EtherCAT.
- Two formats – Compact (C) for minimum panel width, Book (B) for side-by-side mounting.
- Energy saving – optimised motor control lowers consumption on pumps and fans by up to 30% or more.
- Machine functions – brake logic, high-speed hoisting, positioning by limit switch, PID regulator, multi-speed presets.
- Easy setup – built-in display and keypad, optional remote graphic terminal, SoMove PC software and mobile app support.
- Robust design – operates in up to 50°C ambient (60°C with derating), suitable for hot Bangladeshi factory environments.
Applications
- Conveyors, material handling and packaging machines
- Water pumps, booster pumps and HVAC fans – constant pressure with PID
- Textile, spinning and knitting machines
- Food & beverage processing, mixers and extruders
- Hoists, small cranes and lifting equipment
- Woodworking, printing and other OEM machines
Benefits of Using a VFD
A motor started directly-on-line draws 6–8 times its rated current and runs at full speed all the time. With an ATV320 VFD the motor starts softly, runs only as fast as needed and stops in a controlled way. This reduces power consumption, water hammer in pipes, belt and gearbox wear and prevents voltage dips in your supply. It also gives built-in motor protection against overload, phase loss, over-voltage and under-voltage.
How to Choose the ATV320 Rating
Select the drive by motor power (kW/HP) and supply voltage. ATV320 models are available from 0.18 kW to 15 kW – single-phase 200–240V input (M2 models) or three-phase 380–500V input (N4 models). For heavy-duty starting such as hoists or crushers, choose one size higher. Not sure which model you need? Contact PB SHOP BD with your motor nameplate details and we will recommend the right ATV320 and accessories (braking resistor, EMC filter, remote display).

FAQ
Q: Can the ATV320 run a single-phase motor?
A: No. A VFD drives three-phase motors. However, single-phase input models (ATV320…M2) can run a 3-phase 220V motor from a single-phase supply.
Q: Does the price include all kW ratings?
A: The listed price is for a standard model. Please call or message us with your required kW to get the exact price.
Q: Is programming support available?
A: Yes, our team helps with basic parameter setup for pumps, fans and conveyors.
Note: VFD installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician following the Schneider installation manual.
