What this SH3 servo motor delivers
The SH30401P06A2000 is a compact 170 W servo motor from Schneider Electric's SH3 series, designed for light-duty positioning axes where space is tight and dynamic response matters. It delivers 0.184 N.m nominal torque at 400/480 V three-phase and can spin up to 9000 rpm mechanical maximum — suited for high-speed pick-and-place or spindle indexing on small assembly cells. The absolute single-turn SinCos Hiperface encoder provides position feedback without a homing cycle on power-up, reducing commissioning time on multi-axis lines.
Ratings that govern the fit
Continuous stall torque is 0.21 N.m across the three-phase voltage range, with a peak stall torque of 0.75 N.m at 480 V — the 3.5× overload margin handles short acceleration bursts without tripping the drive. IP54 at the shaft bushing and IP65 over the motor body (per IEC 60034-5) means it withstands washdown and airborne dust — suitable for food packaging or woodworking lines where coolant mist is present. Natural convection cooling — no fan means no additional noise or filter maintenance, but the continuous current is limited to 1.12 A stall; the 4.5 A peak output (3 s) must be duty-cycled to avoid winding temperature exceeding the 130 °C copper hot limit.
