The VW3E1152R020 is a 2 m shielded hybrid cable from the PacDrive 3 range, terminated at both ends with D2 elbowed connectors. It links a Lexium 62 ILM distribution box to another distribution box or directly to ILM integrated drives, carrying both power and feedback in one shielded assembly. The D2 elbow keeps the cable routed tight against the drive frame — useful in crowded cabinet layouts where straight connectors would strain the bend radius.
Lifecycle reality — obsolete, but still sourced
Schneider Electric lists the VW3E1152R020 as obsolete. No official successor order code exists. For a line running Lexium 62 ILM drives, this cable is a critical spare.
What the shielded construction buys you
The shielded motor cable attenuates EMI from the drive PWM switching — without it, radiated noise can couple into feedback lines and cause position errors or drive faults. In a PacDrive 3 system running coordinated motion, that shielding is not optional; the D2 connector shell ties the shield to the drive ground plane. Keep the cable run as short as the 2 m length allows, and bond the shield at both ends per the drive installation manual.
