Description
About the BCH16
About the BCH16
The Schneider Electric BCH16LH10330F6C2 is a Lexium 16D servo motor in the BCH16 family, rated for 1.0 kW continuous output at 3000 rpm with 3.18 N.m nominal torque. It mounts on a 100 mm flange with a 19 mm keyed shaft with an integrated holding brake for vertical-axis load retention. Position feedback comes from a 2500-line incremental encoder for closed-loop control with the matching drive.
Selection Notes
The BCH16LH10330F6C2 pairs a 100 mm flange with a 19 mm shaft, so it drops into machine frames sized for the 80 mm BCH16 variants only if the mounting bolt circle is re-checked — the two flange sizes are not interchangeable. The 2500-line incremental encoder is a lower-resolution, lower-cost alternative to the 23-bit variant in the same frame; choose it when the application does not need fine positioning resolution. This is the brake version: the 6.5 N.m holding brake keeps the 3.18 N.m rated axis from drifting when the drive is disabled, which the non-brake variant cannot do on a vertical or overhauling load.
Applications
At 1.0 kW continuous and 3.18 N.m nominal torque, the BCH16LH10330F6C2 suits pick-and-place axes, conveyor indexing, and packaging-line servo axes driven by a Lexium 16D drive, within the 5000 rpm mechanical speed limit of this frame.
