Product Description:

The 8EI2X2HWS10.0200-1 is a servo drive module produced by B & R Automation within the ACOPOS P3 8EI servo drive product series. Designed for modular motion systems, the unit interfaces with three-phase AC mains and synchronous motors to close the speed and position loop in industrial automation cells. By providing axis-specific power conversion and safety feedback, the drive supports precise motion sequences in packaging, material handling, and assembly equipment. Its compact format lets it serve as a dedicated axis module inside larger multi-axis drive groupings.

As delivered, the device is configured as a 1-axis module, so one motor inverter stage is present on the power board. It accepts line supplies from 3x 200-480 VAC, allowing connection to common low-voltage industrial networks without an autotransformer. During continuous operation, the output current is limited to 2.2 Aeff, a rating that sets the compatible motor size and sustained thermal load. Installation is designed for wall mounting, and a vertical heatsink position promotes natural convection while keeping cabinet layouts compact. Drive disable is handled through hardwired STO safety technology with encoder, which interrupts torque-producing pulses while preserving position feedback. Motor and I/O wiring reach the control board through a 1-row connector set, which keeps pin density lower and simplifies routing.

An integrated front cover shields signal conductors from incidental contact and helps keep the connection area organized. The second connector position is omitted to save space, so the housing uses only a single-row connection arrangement for motor and I/O leads. The unit ships without plug-in expansion cards. There is no internal braking resistor, so an external resistor is required if regenerated energy exceeds the DC-link capacity.
