Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0008-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-SB-NN-AW is a drive controller produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. It serves as an axis inverter that conditions three-phase power and closes the current loop for connected servo axes. It also exchanges motion commands with a supervisory PLC to coordinate motor position, speed, and torque in automated cells, material handlers, and light-duty packaging lines.

The controller communicates with plant networks through a MultiEthernet port, letting the same hardware support EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT without extra option cards. Its mains input range of 3 x AC 200...500 V ±10% enables operation on 230 V or 480 V utility grids, which helps keep cabinet layouts consistent across regions. A device peak output of 8 A supplies short-term acceleration current to IndraDyn motors while remaining within the compact HCS01 power platform. Thermal management is handled by internal air cooling through an integrated blower, and the onboard fan moves cabinet air across the heat sink without external ducting. Feedback signals are accepted through a universal encoder socket with IndraDyn Hiperface or EnDat 2.1/2.2 encoder support, allowing compatible position data to be processed without adapters.

An enclosure rating of IP20 provides touch-safe finger protection, but the unit still requires installation in a closed electrical cabinet to prevent dust or fluid intrusion. The control section is the BASIC variant, which provides standard motion functions without the added PLC logic found in ADVANCED modules. Power is taken from a DC bus that supports infeeding or fed operation, so common bus arrangements can return excess braking energy to the mains or dissipate it through bleeder resistors. The product uses Design Version 1, which supports compatibility with HCS01 line accessories.
