Description
Product name :VW3A3501 SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC Controller module
Product details:
The Schneider VW3A3501 is a Controller Inside programmable card designed for use with Schneider Electric’s Altivar series of variable speed drives, specifically the Altivar 61 and Altivar 71. This card allows you to add advanced control and automation capabilities directly to the drive, essentially turning it into a programmable logic controller (PLC).
Product Details and Specifications
- Type: Controller Inside Programmable Card
- Compatibility: Altivar 61 and Altivar 71 series variable speed drives.
- Power Supply: 24 VDC.
- Communication: CANopen protocol. It can act as a master with up to 32 addresses.
- Inputs/Outputs:
- Digital Inputs: 10 (24 VDC logic inputs).
- Digital Outputs: 6 (24 VDC logic outputs).
- Analog Inputs: 2 (0-20 mA current inputs).
- Analog Outputs: 2 (0-20 mA current outputs).
- Memory:
- Program Size: Up to 320 kB.
- Data Size: Up to 64 kwords.
- Data Accessible via Modbus: 2 kwords.
- Battery: Equipped with a lithium battery for memory backup, with an approximate life of 8 years.
Product Advantages
- Integrated Control: The biggest advantage is its ability to integrate a PLC function directly into the variable speed drive. This eliminates the need for a separate external PLC, saving space, reducing wiring, and simplifying the overall system design.
- Enhanced Functionality: It allows for custom programming and logic control, enabling you to create tailored applications for your specific needs, such as multipump management, complex machine sequencing, and advanced motor control.
- Simplified System Architecture: By combining the drive and control functions, it streamlines the system architecture, reduces hardware complexity, and can lower installation and maintenance costs.
- CANopen Communication: The card’s support for the CANopen protocol allows it to easily integrate into larger automation networks and communicate with other devices.
Precautions
- Qualified Personnel: Installation, maintenance, and repair must be performed by qualified personnel who are familiar with electrical systems and safety procedures.
- Hazardous Voltage: The drive and the card operate at hazardous voltage levels. Always disconnect all power sources and wait for the DC bus capacitors to discharge (at least 15 minutes) before servicing.
- Documentation: Thoroughly read and understand the installation manual and all associated documentation for the Altivar drive and the VW3A3501 card before installation and operation.
- Damaged Equipment: Do not install or operate any drive or card that appears to be damaged.
- Proper Installation: Ensure all covers are installed and closed before applying power. Use only electrically insulated tools.
Product Applications
The VW3A3501 is ideal for applications that require integrated control and drive functionality without the complexity of an external PLC. Common applications include:
- Pumping Systems: Advanced control for multi-pump systems, including pump sequencing, pressure regulation, and flow control.
- Conveyor Systems: Implementing custom logic for conveyor start/stop sequences, speed synchronization, and material handling.
- Machine Automation: Controlling specific machine functions, such as indexing, positioning, or other repetitive tasks that require precise speed and motion control.
- HVAC Systems: Custom control for fans, pumps, and compressors to optimize energy efficiency and performance.
