HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-L4-NN-FW

Product Description

The Bosch HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-L4-NN-FW is a digital drive controller. The control section on the unit belongs to the basic category. The controller has a modular design that allows installation of optional plug-in modules. A safety module that supports both safe torque off and safe brake control is installed on the unit. Safe torque off is a safety function that is used to ensure that a motor or other rotating machine is brought to a complete stop in a safe and controlled manner. It is typically used in industrial automation and control systems to prevent accidents and injuries that could result from the unexpected movement of machinery. Safe torque off is an important safety feature that is often required by industry standards and regulations, and it is typically used in applications where there is a risk of injury or damage due to the unexpected movement of machinery.

Safe brake control is a feature that enables safe actuation of an electrically releasing holding brake. Performance specifications for the HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-L4-NN-FW include 18 Amps peak output. This output is valid for 0 to 40 degrees Celsius ambient temperature and 0 to 1000 meters altitude. An IP20 rated housing provides sufficient protection against solids but does not provide liquid ingress protection. Especially for outdoor use the controller must be mounted inside a control cabinet. The controller cools via forced ventilation and requires 56 m3/hour air flow rate for appropriate heat dissipation. Bosch recommends 90 millimeter spacing on the top and bottom side of the mounted controller. The HCS01.1E-W0018-A-03-B-ET-EC-EP-L4-NN-FW supports Multi-Ethernet communication. An integrated multi-encoder interface is also available. In addition, an optional module with an engineering port is also installed on the unit.
