The Schneider Electric ATV950U30N4 is a 3 kW class variable speed drive from the Altivar Process 950 series, designed for industrial process control applications requiring stable motor regulation, energy efficiency, and advanced connectivity.
It is commonly used in conveyors, pumps, mixers, crushers, light industrial automation systems, and water treatment equipment, where continuous operation and precise torque control are essential.
As part of Schneider Electric’s process-focused drive platform, it integrates monitoring, diagnostics, and communication functions that support modern digital industrial environments such as SCADA and IIoT systems. Its IP55-rated enclosure allows installation close to the machine in decentralized architectures.
