HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-A-ET-EC-NN-L4-NN-FW

The Bosch Rexroth Indramat HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-A-ET-EC-NN-L4-NN-FW controller is a high-performance member of the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series designed for single-axis and multi-axis motion control tasks. UL Listed and CSA Certified, this compact converter integrates seamlessly into industrial automation systems, providing robust fault tolerance and predictable operation. Its scalable signal processing architecture supports real-time control loops over MultiEthernet, delivering precise torque and speed regulation for demanding applications. The unit features a Power Supply Unit Infeeding/Feeded design and is optimized via Bosch Rexroth’s IndraSize software, ensuring minimal cabinet footprint without sacrificing performance. Rated for a 42000 A short-circuit current rating, the controller maintains operational integrity under severe electrical disturbances.

Detailed specifications of the HCS01.1E drive controller underscore its versatility and reliability. The controller employs an internal air cooling method (through integrated blower) to maintain optimal operating temperatures in confined enclosures. It conforms to an IP20 protection rating and must be mounted vertically to meet thermal and clearance requirements. The Mains Voltage of 3 x AC 110…230 V ±10% input supports global power standards, while the Device Peak Current of 18 A enables dynamic current delivery for rapid acceleration. The embedded Encoder IndraDyn Hiperface/EnDat 2.1/2.2 interface provides high-resolution feedback for closed-loop control. Safety is addressed by integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) and SBC (Safe Brake Control) functions. Additional details include Design Version 1, Line Series HCS01, and an optional firmware sub-position (must be ordered separately).

Operational features of the HCS controller emphasize reliability under diverse environmental stresses. The unit exhibits a controlled temperature change rate of 2%/K during operation and tolerates ambient humidity and airborne contaminants when installed in compliance with IP20 guidelines. A leakage current of more than 3.5 mA necessitates proper grounding via an equipment grounding connector (outer cross-section < 8 AWG). The controller’s 24 V ±20% control voltage input and analog output range of –10 V to 10 V facilitate flexible external signal interfacing. User interaction is accomplished through a single-line display and four keys on the integrated control panel. Firmware updates and configuration parameters are managed through the MultiEthernet™ interface, enabling predictive diagnostics and remote parameterization.

System integration of the HCS01.1E-W0018 converter is streamlined by compatibility with Bosch Rexroth MSM, MCL, MSK, and MS2N motor series, as well as pairing with Control Section Design "BASIC (B)". The controller supports both single-axis and multi-axis topologies, making it ideal for packaging machines, food industry equipment, and general automated production lines. Military-grade packaging ensures damage-free delivery, and compliance with international safety regulations simplifies global deployment. Bosch Rexroth Indramat’s HCS Compact Converter series thus meets the exacting demands of modern mechatronic systems, delivering precise control, robust safety, and scalable performance.
