Schneider Electric VW3A3316 AC Motor Contactor

VW3A3316 is an Ethernet/IP communication option card for Schneider Electric Altivar 61/71 drives, enabling the drive to join an Ethernet/IP network for control and data exchange. The module provides 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connectivity via two RJ45 ports and is designed as a plug-in option to connect ATV61/ATV71 controllers to an Ethernet IP network. In Schneider Electric documentation, VW3A3316 is described as a factory-installed plug-in Ethernet IP card (option V09) used to attach ATV61/ATV71 drives to Ethernet/IP networks. Typical applications include integration with PLCs or SCADA systems in industrial automation, where drive status, parameter access, and I/O data can be exchanged over Ethernet/IP.
