FWA-ECODR3-SMT-02V50-D5

The Bosch Rexroth Indramat FWA-ECODR3-SMT-02V50-D5 firmware module is part of the DKC Drive Controllers series, offering a 24VDV power rating and a 2 Digit/Number display for clear status indication. As a Machine Tool firmware, it provides the essential control software for ECODRIVE03 drives used in industrial machining centers. The primary function of this module is to host the drive’s firmware on a removable plug-in unit, enabling rapid transfer of the software between drives without the need for time-consuming reconfiguration, thereby reducing unplanned downtime and simplifying maintenance procedures.

Installed on ECODRIVE03 drive controllers with analog, parallel and SERCOS interfaces, the module supports an input voltage range of 200 to 480 V AC and equips drives rated for 40 A, 100 A and 200 A output current. Unique to this design is the removable firmware cartridge, which allows a faulty drive’s firmware to be instantly transferred to a replacement unit. The controllers require an external 24 V supply for their control electronics, consuming between 21 W and 29 W depending on current rating. With a maximum output voltage of 800 V across three phases and a top output frequency of 1000 Hz, these drives deliver high-performance motion control. The 42000 A short-circuit current rating and a maximum ambient operating temperature of 45 °C ensure robustness under heavy load and challenging industrial conditions.

Beyond core performance, the FWA-ECODR3-SMT-02V50-D5 module is compatible with both single-phase and three-phase installations, operating at input frequencies between 50 Hz and 60 Hz. To maintain optimal thermal management, a minimum clearance of 150 mm above and 80 mm below the drive is recommended for unrestricted airflow. This spacing requirement, combined with the rugged module design, enhances durability and prevents overheating during extended operation. By delivering a plug-and-play firmware solution, this module streamlines system upgrades, minimizes configuration errors and improves overall equipment efficiency, making it an ideal choice for high-precision industrial automation and machine tool applications.
