2 kW at 220 V — the continuous power ceiling for motor matching
The LXM26DU20M3X delivers 2 kW continuous power at 220 V three-phase input, with the same figure confirmed as both nominal and continuous power — meaning the drive sustains full rated torque without derating across the duty cycle, not just a peak rating. Continuous output current is 12 A at the default 8 kHz switching frequency. The 3-second peak of 36 A at 220 V gives headroom for acceleration transients — useful when sizing for high-inertia loads like indexing conveyors or rotary tables where the RMS stays under 12 A but the peak exceeds it momentarily. Line current draw is 8.7 A at 137.1 % of rated load — a figure that matters when sizing the upstream branch circuit protection and the supply transformer. At full load the drive pulls less than 9 A per phase, so a 10 A or 16 A MCB on the three-phase feed is the typical coordination point.
Compact housing, three-phase supply — panel fit and supply constraints
The drive ships in a compact housing format — no frame size is stated, but the form factor is designed for DIN-rail or panel-mount integration where space is at a premium. The supply voltage limits are 170...255 V three-phase, with rated supply at 220 V (-10/+15 %), so it runs on nominal 200–230 V three-phase networks common in North American and Asian light-industrial plants. Overvoltage category III means the drive is rated for fixed-installation distribution-level transients — no additional surge suppression needed on the incoming supply side within a standard panel. Maximum leakage current is 1.35 mA — below the 3.5 mA threshold that triggers mandatory hardwired earth-leakage detection in most industrial installations, so standard Type A RCDs on the supply side are acceptable unless multiple drives share a single RCD.
Active production — no lifecycle risk for BOM planning
The LXM26DU20M3X carries an active lifecycle status — no end-of-life notice, no last-time-buy window. For a category-sourcing perspective, this means the drive is a safe anchor for multi-year production BOMs without requalification risk from obsolescence. It belongs to the Easy Lexium 26 range, positioned as a compact, cost-optimized servo drive family for basic motion control applications — not the high-performance Lexium 32 series, but a solid fit for applications where the 8 kHz switching frequency and 2 kW ceiling match the load profile.
