Product Description:
The 8EI4X5HWD10.0500-1 is a servo drive module manufactured by B&R Automation for the 8EI Servo Drives series. It belongs to the ACOPOS P3 8EI platform and functions as a compact power stage for synchronous motors used in automated machinery and production cells. The module processes motion commands and regulates motor current to support accurate torque, speed, and velocity control during repetitive machine cycles. Its integrated architecture reduces the number of separate drive components required within a protected control enclosure.
The drive accepts a three-phase supply of 3 x 200–480 VAC and provides up to 4.5 Aeff of continuous output per axis. Its two-axis design allows one module to control two motors while both channels share a common DC link. Motion can be inhibited through the integrated hardwired STO safety technology, which uses an encoder signal to remove motor torque without disconnecting input power. Regenerative energy produced during motor deceleration is dissipated by an internal braking resistor, so a separate external brake chopper is not required. Sharing the DC link between both channels also consolidates power distribution and helps reduce the amount of internal cabinet wiring needed for a dual-axis installation.
The module is intended for wall mounting inside an enclosure that provides the necessary protection against accidental contact and environmental contaminants. It is supplied without a front cover, leaving the terminals accessible for connection after the unit has been securely installed in the enclosure. A single-row connector set is not included; control and feedback signals instead use the dual-row connector interface provided for this drive platform. The open terminal arrangement provides direct access to power and signal connections while preserving a compact installation footprint. Cable routing should maintain separation between power conductors and sensitive feedback wiring to reduce electrical interference during motor operation. Adequate enclosure clearance should also be maintained around the installed module so heat can dissipate without obstructing nearby wiring or adjacent drive components.
