Description
About the LXM16D
About the LXM16D
The Schneider Electric LXM16DU07M2X is a single-phase 200-240 V Lexium 16D servo drive rated for 0.75 kW continuous power and a 5.1 A continuous output current, with a 20 A three-second peak for BCH16 servo motors up to the 80 mm frame. Fan-cooled at this power level, it integrates a Mini-B USB port for Modbus commissioning.

Selection Notes
At 0.75 kW continuous and a 5.1 A continuous output current, the LXM16DU07M2X is the only drive in this range that needs fan cooling rather than natural convection, and it pairs with the largest BCH16 motor frame (80 mm) in a wider housing (65 mm vs 52 mm on the smaller units). The 20 A three-second peak gives roughly twice the short-term overload margin of the mid-range variant, which matters for load cycles with fast accel/decel rather than steady running. Plan for fan airflow clearance in the panel layout, unlike the smaller natural-convection units in the family.
