Product Description

Today’s need for highly functional drive and motion control units is met by components of the Rexroth IndraDrive drive system by Bosch Rexroth. One of these is the HCS drive converter with multi-protocol support and an innovative multi-encoder interface. Targeted areas of application for this unit are food packaging and processing machines, general automation, and printing and paper processing machines.

The HCS01.1E-W0005-A-03-E-S3-EC-NN-NN-NN-FW is a versatile drive converter in the HCS series. It is compatible with IndraDrive control sections with the ECONOMY design. Thanks to its compact size, it can be easily mounted within a control cabinet where it is cooled via natural convection. The drive unit’s designated mounting style within this control cabinet is G1 mounting to prevent the formation of pockets of heat. A forced cooling air current sorts this with a volumetric capacity of 11.00m³/h. There is also a standard control panel in this device that shows the operating status, command and error diagnoses, and pending warnings on its single-line display. It can be used as a programming module.

Since the Ingress Protection rating of the HCS01.1E-W0005-A-03-E-S3-EC-NN-NN-NN-FW is IP 20 per EN 60529, it indicates that the HCS drive converter does not admit solid extrinsic objects over 12mm. Like other HCS models, it comes with a multi-encoder interface that supports standard encoders with supply voltage ratings of 5V and 12V. Examples of these encoders are the 1 Vpp sin-cos encoder with EnDat 2.1, the MSK motor encoder, the MS2N motor encoder, and the 5V-TTL square-wave encoder with reference track. The drive converter communicates with other units via a sercos/EtherCAT communication module while its maximum current is 5A.
