Sizing this drive to the motor
The LXM18MPDU02M2X is a 0.2 kW servo drive from the Easy Lexium 18M family, rated for single-phase 200-240 V supply. The continuous output current is 1.6 A at the 8 kHz switching frequency, with a 3-second peak of 5.8 A for acceleration transients. Line draw is 2.3 A at nominal input — that's the figure for sizing the upstream breaker and the single-phase feed. The switching frequency is fixed at 8 kHz, so no derating curve to juggle; the continuous current rating already accounts for that carrier.
What it talks to — I/O and bus
Communication is over Modbus, plus integrated digital and analog I/O, PTI, and PTO. That covers position-table indexing (PTI) and pulse-train output for simple motion profiles without a separate motion controller.
Panel fit and environment
The compact housing is 40 mm wide, 170 mm tall, 150 mm deep — a slim footprint for a DIN-rail or backplate mount. Operating temperature is 0 to 45 °C, altitude limited to 1000 m without derating. No built-in EMC filter — plan for an external filter if the installation needs to meet conducted emissions limits.
