Product Description
Bosch Rexroth created the compact HCS drive converters to provide maximum communications flexibility with multi-protocol support. The control units are components of the Rexroth IndraDrive drive system built to solve automation challenges. These converters are also used in machine tools, general automation, handling and mounting systems, and printing machines.
The HCS01.1E-W0013-A-02-B-ET-EC-EM-NN-NN-FW is a drive converter model in the HCS series by Bosch Rexroth. Its encoder emulation interface facilitates the emulation of absolute value and incremental encoder signals, which are galvanically isolated from the circuit board. They are further evaluated by a control unit. It also has a multi-encoder interface, allowing its connection to standard encoder types with supply voltage ratings of 5V and 12V. Examples of these encoders are the 5V-TTL square-wave encoder with reference track, the MSK motor encoder, the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with EnDat 2.1, and the MS2N motor encoder. As a product of category C3, according to IEC 61800-3, the HCS drive converter should be operated in industrial areas.
Based on the EN 60529 standard, the Ingress Protection rating of the HCS01.1E-W0013-A-02-B-ET-EC-EM-NN-NN-FW is IP 20. This indicates that it is dustproof and impermeable to solid external materials over 12mm. It utilizes a three-phase AC mains connecting voltage between 110V and 230V and accommodates a maximum current of 13A. The drive converter is fitted with a standard control panel where its operating states, command and error diagnoses and pending warnings can be viewed. It serves as a programming module and has four keys for implementing various functions. With its Multi-Ethernet communication module, the HCS model supports Ethernet field bus systems, including PROFINET IO, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, and sercos III.
