Overview
The ILS2E572PB1A0 is a Schneider Lexium integrated drive combining a 6-pole 3-phase stepper motor and drive electronics in a single housing, order code ILS2E572PB1A0. It operates on a single-phase 24 V DC supply and delivers 0.9 Nm of holding torque, communicating over EtherCAT with integrated RS485 Modbus TCP fallback at 9.6, 19.2 and 38.4 kbauds. Rated IP41, the unit is flange-mounted and carries CE marking plus compliance with EN 61800-3:2001, second environment, and IEC 61800-3 Ed 2.
The integrated drive eliminates the separate motor and drive cabling by embedding the power stage and control logic inside the motor housing. The 6-pole 3-phase stepper rotor produces 0.9 Nm holding torque at rated current; the drive accepts 24 V DC input and generates the microstepping waveforms internally. EtherCAT provides the primary real-time motion bus for coordinated multi-axis systems, while the RS485 Modbus TCP port supports commissioning and legacy controller integration at 9.6, 19.2 or 38.4 kbauds. The unit includes 4 multifunction signals configurable as digital inputs or outputs, plus an index pulse feedback channel for homing. Protection covers short circuit and overload of the output voltage, plus Safe Torque Off (STO). The rotor inertia is 0.22 kg·cm², and positioning accuracy is rated at ±6 arc minutes — suitable for pick-and-place and indexing applications that do not require a servo-grade encoder. The unit is rated for 150 m/s² shock over 1000 shocks per EN/IEC 60068-2-29, confirming its resilience in high-vibration machine environments such as packaging and material handling.
Applications
Lexium integrated drives of this class are used in compact motion axes where space is tight and wiring must be minimised — typical deployments include labelling machines, small pick-and-place gantries, conveyor diverters, and medical diagnostic handlers. The EtherCAT interface allows direct connection to a motion controller without an additional gateway.
Within Schneider's Lexium integrated drive range, the ILS2E572PB1A0 occupies the medium-speed, medium-torque segment. It is specified by machine builders who need a single-cable stepper solution with EtherCAT and do not require a gearbox or holding brake — both are omitted on this variant.
The ILS2E572PB1A0 carries CE marking and is designed to EN 61800-3:2001 (second environment) and IEC 61800-3 Ed 2, covering EMC and safety requirements for adjustable-speed drives.
