Altivar 32, with its extra-slim format, offers numerous advantages in the control of asynchronous and synchronous motors operating in open loop mode :

• More innovations
  . Narrower product (45 mm wide)
  . Vertical mounting, side-by-side or sideways on
  . Circuit-breaker connected directly to the product (same 45 mm width)
  . Embedded Bluetooth®: remote adjustment and parameter setting via mobile phone or PC
  . Configuration with the power off in its original packaging
• Greater autonomy
  . Integrated programmable logic functions
• More safety functions
  . Numerous safety functions as standard
  - STO (Safe Torque Off)
  - SLS (Safely Limited Speed)
  - SS1 (Safe Stop 1)
• More openness : 
  . Either Modbus or CANopen is integrated as standard. Numerous other industrial communication networks can be accessed by simply inserting a communication cassette in the drive :
  - CANopen Daisy Chain (for connecting the drives in a daisy chain easily)
  - EtherNet/IP - Modbus TCP (double port)
  - Profibus
  - DeviceNet
  - EtherCat
  - Etc.
• Tools common to several other Schneider Electric products, adapted to each type of user
  (cable installer, programmer, operator)
  - Remote graphic display terminal for remote configuration
  -  Multi Loader for storing configurations and loading them quickly
  -  Simple Loader for duplicating and loading a configuration
• SoMove software for configuring on PC and transferring the configuration via Bluetooth® or using a cable
• SoMove Mobile software for modifying or sending a configuration remotely via mobile phone
