VFD vs Servo Drive: Key Differences
A side-by-side comparison of VFD and servo drive motor type, feedback, dynamic response, overload rating, cost, and applications for industrial engineers.
The Schneider Electric VW3M4B11 is an I/O connector kit for the Lexium 18 range, built around a 50-pin SCSI connector for field-terminating control I/O wiring on a Lexium 18 servo motor. It is a 100 g spare-part connection kit with no cable included, matched to the motor side of the Lexium 18 connection set.
The VW3M4B11 terminates I/O wiring on a Lexium 18 servo motor using a 50-pin SCSI connector, distinct from the VW3M4B01 drive-side power kit and the VW3M4B21 firewire encoder kit in the same accessory set - each matches a different connector location in the Lexium 18 wiring scheme. At 100 g it ships as a bare connector kit, so crimping or soldering is needed to complete a custom cordset.
Used to field-terminate control I/O wiring on a Lexium 18 servo motor when building a custom cordset instead of ordering a pre-made cable.
