Product Description:

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-A-CC-EC-EC-L4-NN-FW drive controller is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series. The unit is part of the HCS01 line and is design version 1, placing it within a compact controller platform for servo-axis applications. As an HCS drive controller, it forms the power and control core of industrial motion axes by converting three-phase mains power to a regulated DC link. Within a system, it supports closed-loop torque, speed, and position regulation through its modular control section and coordinated power stage.

Electrical compatibility starts with a three-phase supply of 3 x AC 200...500 V ±10%, letting the hardware fit low- or mid-voltage networks without tap changes. For dynamic events, the inverter delivers up to 18 A of peak phase current matched to small and mid-frame IndraDyn motors. Heat is removed by internal air cooling through an integrated blower, so the cabinet only needs clearance for recirculated airflow around the unit. Protection against accidental contact is limited to an IP20 housing, so the controller is intended for installation inside a closed panel. Motion and parameter data move over a SERCOS III master with cross communication interface, enabling real-time coordination with neighboring drives on the network.

Its control section is ADVANCED, which provides the processing capacity used by this configuration for coordinated servo operation. Two identical inputs accept IndraDyn Hiperface or EnDat 2.1/2.2 encoder signals, allowing redundant motor feedback and compatibility with supported motor feedback systems. Functional safety disables torque through STO (Safe Torque Off) and SBC (Safe Brake Control), supporting safe drive shutdown behavior when required by the machine. The common DC bus supports infeeding and fed operation, so energy can move to and from the drive section during normal operation.
