Issue:
What is the max cable length you can run the ATV320 drive?
Product Line:
Altivar 320
Environment:
All
Cause:
Motor cable length distance without a load reactor.
Resolution:
The ATV320 drive can run up to 164 feet without a load reactor.
Cable length can go up to 164 ft without a reactor. If it's shielded cable we can go to 328 ft with a reactor. If it's unshielded cable we can go up to 656 ft with the reactor.
Cable Characteristics (ATV320 Installation Manual page 75)
If you are using cables longer than 50 m (164 ft) between the drive and the motor, add output filters (for more details refer to the catalog). Use a shielded cable to meet the requirements of Category C2 or C3 according to the standard IEC 61800- 3, except when using a sinus filter. In this case, the use of a non-shielded motor cable is possible.
