Product details

Current ratings and switching frequency trade-off

The LXM05CD28M2: Continuous output current is 15 A at 4 kHz switching frequency, dropping to 13 A at 8 kHz — the higher carrier quiets motor whine but costs 2 A of continuous torque capability. Transient RMS output current is 20 A at either 4 kHz or 8 kHz for 3 seconds, giving headroom for acceleration peaks without tripping. Line current draw is 23 A at 200 V input and 19.2 A at 240 V — size the upstream branch circuit and supply transformer for this draw, not just the motor nameplate.

Single-phase input and supply coordination

Runs on single-phase 200-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, with limits of 170-264 V and 47.5-63 Hz — no three-phase feed needed, but the single-phase inrush hits 60 A on power-up. Maximum prospective line short-circuit current is 1 kA — coordinate upstream protection (MCB or fuses) to clear faults below this threshold. Overvoltage category III means it's rated for fixed installation downstream of the building service entrance, not for outlet-plugged portable use.

Built-in EMC filter and I/O complement

The drive ships with an integrated EMC filter per the description — no external filter needed for most industrial environments, saving panel space and wiring. Six logic discrete inputs and one analogue input handle basic positioning and enable signals; the Modbus port has no polarization impedances, so termination resistors may be needed on longer bus runs. Maximum leakage current is 30 mA — factor this into the RCD selection if a residual-current device is required on the supply side.

Frequently asked questions

What is the nominal power rating of LXM05CD28M2?

Rated 2.5 kW at 4 kHz switching frequency. At 8 kHz the continuous output current derates from 15 A to 13 A, reducing usable power for the same motor.
