0.75 kW single-phase servo drive with integrated STO
The LXM18ESU07M2X is a 0.75 kW motion servo drive from Schneider Electric's Easy Lexium 18 series, designed for single-phase 220-240 V supply with integrated EtherCAT communication and digital I/O. Rated continuous output current is 5.1 A at 8 kHz switching frequency, with a 3-second peak capability of 17.3 A — enough headroom for acceleration transients in indexing or pick-and-place applications without oversizing the drive.
EtherCAT integration and I/O architecture
The drive ships with a built-in EtherCAT slave interface and digital I/O — no option card required for fieldbus connectivity. This suits machines where the motion controller coordinates multiple axes over a deterministic 100 Mbps ring topology. Without an integrated EMC filter, the drive relies on an external filter at the line input to meet conducted emission limits for CE-marked installations. Factor the filter panel space and cost into the BOM if the machine targets the European market.
Panel fit and ambient limits
Compact housing dimensions of 78 mm width, 155.5 mm height, and 166.5 mm depth allow side-by-side mounting on a DIN rail or backplate without excessive spacing, though the 8 kHz switching frequency and 5.1 A continuous output require derating above 45 °C ambient. Supply voltage tolerance of -15% / +10% on the 220-240 V nominal means the drive accepts 187-264 V single phase, covering most global single-phase mains variations without a transformer tap change.
Active production — sourcing through authorized distribution
No stock-holding claim is made; the drive is quoted to order from the franchise line.
