HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-NN-NN-NN-FW

Product Description

One look at Bosch Rexroth’s product portfolio shows why many users rely on the brand for drive and motion control products. Its products have impressive performance specifications and versatility. The company is the manufacturer of the HCS drive converters used in machine tools and general automation.

The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-NN-NN-NN-FW is a drive converter in the HCS series by Bosch Rexroth. Heat is dissipated from it via an internal cooling air mechanism within the control cabinet where it is housed. It is mounted per the G1 mounting style; hence, natural convection supports the forced air currents and prevents the formation of pockets of heat. The drive controller’s compact size facilitates its easy installation within this control cabinet. Its Ingress Protection rating is IP 20 in line with EN 60529, indicating that it is safe from damage by the penetration of solid external materials over 12mm in diameter. Permitted switching frequencies for its operation are 4kHz, 8kHz, 12kHz, and 16kHz.

Many encoders can be connected to the HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-NN-NN-NN-FW via its multi-encoder interface. They include the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with reference track, the sin-cos encoder (1 Vpp) with EnDat 2.1, the MS2N motor encoder, the 5V-TTL square-wave encoder with reference track, and the MSK motor encoder. These encoders have supply voltage ratings of 5V and 12V. The drive converter has a standard control panel where users can view operating states, command and error diagnoses, and pending warnings. This control panel also has four keys for triggering simple commands and exploring other functions. Communication between the HCS drive converter and other system components is via its Multi-Ethernet module, allowing its integration in multiple Ethernet field bus systems.
