Product Description

The Bosch DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW is the basic unit for a digital DDS series motor controller. DDS controllers are deployed for motor control. A complete DDS controller includes the basic unit, a command communication interface, plugin modules and controller firmware. To identify the firmware and hardware, you can read the information listed on the respective type plates attached to the controller. You have to order the firmware separately from the hardware. The reason for this is that Bosch develops different firmware version that are optimized for different applications. The firmware is stored on the software module. The controller operating parameters are also stored on the software module. The location of the software module on the DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW is Slot U5. Slot U1 on the basic unit contains the SERCOS master communication module. SERCOS allows fast communication over fiber optic cables.

The major advantage of SERCOS is reliable communication: nodes on the SERCOS network are connected in ring topology, which allows communication even if a single fiber or node are disabled. The rated current output of the DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW is 15 Amps. The output derates if the controller operates under non-specified ambient conditions. The specified ambient conditions are: maximum 95% relative non-condensing humidity, 0 to 45 degrees Celsius ambient temperature and 0 to 1000 meters altitude. The DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW supports resolver feedback and digital servo feedback. The DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW must only be connected to power supplies that deliver regulated 24 Volts DC output. The DDS03.2-W015-BE31-01-FW is designed with heat technology: it dissipates heat inside the cabinet. The nominal DC bus voltage is 300 Volts DC with 15% tolerance. Only qualified personnel should handle the controller. Only approved accessories should be used with the controller.
