Product Description:

The 8EI044HWS10.A000-1 Servo Drive of B & R Automation is designed for precise and high performance industrial automation applications. This product is listed in the 8EI Servo Drives series.

The 8EI044HWS10.A000-1 servo drive has a switch on interval time of 60 seconds which means it should not be power cycled more frequently than every 60 seconds. The total electrical power It can handle or deliver to the motor and internal electronics is up to 10 kilovolt amperes (kVA). It itself consumes 1.2 amps at 24 VDC and additional current is required if the motor includes a holding brake (typically used to hold position when powered off). In its 24 VDC supply path it has 5500 µF input capacitance which helps stabilize voltage and absorb fluctuations or transients. It is able to deliver 4 kilowatts of output power to the motor continuously during operation. It controls only one motor (axis). It includes a Safe Torque Off (STO) safety function which is implemented via hardwiring that disables motor torque output during emergencies. It does not include an internal EMC line filter for conducted emissions according to the EN 61800-3 standard. It accepts a 24 VDC control voltage and it tolerates fluctuations from 18 V to 30 V (±25%).

The 8EI044HWS10.A000-1 servo drive is designed for vertical wall mounting which may influence cooling and wiring accessibility. It is compatible with both 50 Hz and 60 Hz mains power which allows it to be used worldwide. It supports a wide variety of grounding and distribution systems which makes it versatile for global industrial applications. It may consume up to 45 amps momentarily when first powered on which is typically due to charging internal capacitors.

Frequently Asked Questions about 8EI044HWS10.A000-1:

Q: How does dynamic node allocation benefit the 8EI044HWS10.A000-1 servo drive in networking?

A: Dynamic node allocation simplifies fieldbus setup, especially in scalable systems. It allows automatic address assignment, reducing configuration time during commissioning.

Q: Why is the 44 A continuous current rating important for the 8EI044HWS10.A000-1 servo drive?

A: A 44 A continuous current rating supports high-demand motion applications. It ensures stable performance under constant load without overheating.

Q: What advantage does hardwired STO provide over software-based safety in the 8EI044HWS10.A000-1?

A: Hardwired STO guarantees a direct and fail-safe disconnection of torque. This enhances safety compliance and reduces the risk of unintended motion.

Q: How does the wide 24–120 VDC input range improve system integration?

A: The broad input range enables compatibility with diverse control architectures. It increases flexibility in integrating the servo drive into varied systems.

Q: What are the implications of not having an integrated EMC line filter in this drive?

A: External filters are required to meet EMC compliance in industrial environments. This allows users to select filters tailored to their specific installation.
