Product Description

Bosch Rexroth has made it easy for users to vouch for the reliability of its products with its constant delivery of functional drive and automation units. The HCS drive converters are components in its Rexroth IndraDrive drive system designed for controlling electric motors and monitoring their operations. They feature numerous interfaces that support user-specific applications.

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-DA-NN-NN-AW is a drive converter in the HCS series designed and manufactured by Bosch Rexroth. It has a Multi-Ethernet communication module that makes it compatible with Ethernet field bus systems, including sercos III, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET IO, and EtherCAT. There is also a multi-encoder interface on the drive converter, allowing its connection to several standard encoders with supply voltage ratings of 5V and 12V. These encoders include the MSM motor encoder, the MSK motor encoder, the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with EnDat 2.1, and the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with Hiperface.

According to the EN 60529 standard, the HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-DA-NN-NN-AW is a product of protection class IP 20. This is because it does not admit solid external objects over 12mm. The drive converter should be operated with a mains connecting voltage between 200V and 500V and switching frequencies of 4kHz, 8kHz, 12kHz, and 16kHz. Its maximum current rating is 18A, and it is compatible with Bosch Rexroth control sections in the BASIC range. There is also a Digital/analog I/O extension module in the HCS model. Its compact size supports its easy installation within a control cabinet where heat is eliminated via an efficient internal cooling air system. The cooling is supported by its G1 mounting that prevents the generation of heat pockets within the cabinet.
