PC842-XYZ-A

Product Description:

The PC842-XYZ-A comes from Pacific Scientific and sits inside their PC800 - PCE800 Brushless Servo Drives series, landing in the tough industrial automation crowd. This model carries a continuous output current of 2.7A RMS between 25 and 40°C, and for rapid pushes it can swing up to 5.3A RMS at peak. On the power side, the stage runs a solid 97% efficiency, which means almost nothing gets wasted as heat. There’s a focus here on keeping systems precise, using a SERCOS network command interface that snaps easily into bigger assembly lines where fast signals and reliability matter the most.

Connections with this drive stay stable thanks to that SERCOS interface, helping motion controllers keep everything synced tight. For heavier lift, the system runs off 323VAC to 528VAC, 3-phase input, able to handle the jumpy nature of industrial-grade power. The continuous output power at 400VAC clocks in at 2.1 kW (convection cooling), spread out with help from a shunt regulator ready for 200W continuous/10 kW peak (300 ms) dumping during big energy shifts. Safe line current hangs at 5.1A RMS (400VAC), and a bus voltage of 533 VDC keeps the flow smooth for whatever makes the motor tick.

Parts like this get called up for lines and machinery where downtime comes expensive. Rugged mechanicals allow it to throw signals over cable runs up to 50 m (164 ft), carrying stable commands through tough shop zones. Output current ripple holds at 16 kHz so your motor doesn’t sound rough and efficiency stays up. Designed slim for easier fit, the build holds up to high loads, rapid movement, or deep-in-plant installs without slipping out of tune. With Pacific Scientific behind it, the PC842-XYZ-A works well in nonstop factory automation, material handling, and multi-axis setup.
