Introduction (continued)
Altivar
®
 12 
variable speed drives
An optimum solution
The Altivar
®
 12 range of variable speed drives extends across a range of motor 
power ratings from 0.18 kW to 4 kW on three types of power supply: Two standard 
versions are available:
Drive with heatsink for normal environments and fan-cooled enclosure:
v  100 to 120 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.75 kW (ATV12HpppF1)
v  200 to 240 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 2.2 kW (ATV12HpppM2)
v  200 to 240 V three-phase, 0.18 kW to 4 kW (ATV12HpppM3)
Drive on a base plate for mounting on the machine frame; the frame surface area 
should allow heat to dissipate:
v  100 to 120 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.37 kW (ATV12H018F1, P037F1)
v  200 to 240 V single-phase, 0.18 kW to 0.75 kW (ATV12H018M2, PpppM2)
v  200 to 240 V three-phase, 0.18 kW to 4 kW (ATV12H018M3, PpppM3)
Note: The Altivar 12 drive output voltage is 200 to 240 V three-phase, regardless of the type of 
drive line supply.
The Altivar 12 drive utilizes standard Modbus communication protocol, and can be 
accessed via the RJ45 connector located on the underside of the drive 4.
The entire range conforms to international standards IEC/EN 61800-5-1 and 
IEC/EN61800-3,isUL,CSA,C-Tick,NOM,GOSTcertiedandhasbeendeveloped
to meet the requirements of directives regarding the protection of the environment 
(RoHS, WEEE) as well as those of European Directives to obtain the e mark.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
TheintegrationofalevelC1EMClterinATV12ppppM2 drives and the handling of 
EMC simplify installation and make it very inexpensive to bring the device into 
conformity to obtain the e mark.

ATV12ppppF1 and ATV12ppppM3drivesaredesignedwithoutanEMClter.Filters
are available as an option and can be installed by the customer to reduce  
the level of emissions (see page 16).
External accessories and options
External accessories and options can be used with Altivar 12 drives:
EMC conformity kits, plates for direct mounting on 35 mm DIN rails, etc.
Braking units combined with a braking resistor, motor chokes, additional EMC input 
lters,etc.
Dialog and conguration tools
Human/Machine Interface (HMI)
The 4-digit display 1 can be used to display states and faults, access parameters 
and modify them via the navigation button 2.
The RUN and STOP buttons 3 can be made accessible on the front panel by removing 
the blanking plate 5fromthedoor;theymustbeconguredinordertobeactive.

used to customize the integrated display terminal menus. It can be used with a direct 
connection or a Bluetooth

 wireless connection.
Remote display terminal
The Altivar 12 drive can be connected to a remote display terminal, available as an 
option. This terminal can be mounted on an enclosure door with IP 54 or IP 65 
degree of protection. The maximum operating temperature is 50°C. It provides 
access to the same functions as the Human/Machine Interface.
