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 VW3M5102R30 is a preassembled 3 m power cable that connects a Lexium BSH servo motor to its servo drive, wired with 4 x 2.5 mm² + 2 x 1 mm² conductors. It terminates in an industrial M23 connector on the motor side and a free end for wiring into the drive terminal block. Weighing 1.07 kg, it fits the Lexium 05 and Lexium 32 ranges.
Choose the VW3M5102R30 when the servo drive sits within a 3 m run of the BMH motor; the 5 m VW3M5102R50 covers longer cabinet-to-motor distances without re-terminating the M23 connector. The free end on the drive side wires directly into the servo drive's power terminal block, so no additional connector kit is required.
