Product Description

Creating a state-of-the-art drive system like the Rexroth IndraDrive drive system requires skill and innovation, as displayed by Bosch Rexroth. The HCS drive converters in this drive system are compact units with numerous interfaces used to control electric motors and monitor their operation.

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-CN-S5-NN-FW is a Bosch Rexroth HCS drive converter equipped with a user-friendly standard control panel. This control panel serves as a programming module and has a single-line display where command and error diagnoses, information on the drive’s operating status and unresolved warnings are viewed. It also comes with four prominent keys used to carry out various functions. The drive converter is a product of the IP 20 protection category according to EN 60529, indicating that it cannot be penetrated by solid extrinsic materials over 12mm. Another protective feature of this HCS model is its Safe Motion safety technology module. In addition, it is housed within a control cabinet where it is cooled by forced air ventilation.

Operating the HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-CN-S5-NN-FW requires a three-phase AC mains connecting voltage in a range between 200V and 500V. It also accommodates a maximum current of 18A and supports switching frequencies of 4kHz, 8kHz, 12kHz, and 16kHz. The drive converter’s Multi-Ethernet module makes its integration in multiple Ethernet field bus systems possible. They include EtherNet/IP, PROFINET IO, EtherCAT, and sercos III. It also has a CANopen interface. Many standard encoders can be connected to the drive controller such as the MSM motor encoder, the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with EnDat 2.1, the MSK motor encoder, and the 5V-TTL square-wave encoder with reference track. They are compatible with the multi-encoder interface on the drive converter.
