HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-EC-L3-NN-FW
HCS IndraDrive Controllers
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat HCS01.1E-W0018-A-02-B-ET-EC-EC-L3-NN-FW is a high-performance module in the HCS IndraDrive Controllers series designed to deliver precise motion control with an integrated HCS Compact Converter Series design. Manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat, this unit is part of the robust Line Series HCS01 and operates as a dedicated Product Type HCS Drive Controller. Built for ease of integration, the converter accommodates a wide input range of 3 x AC 110...230 V ±10% mains voltage and offers a Device Peak Current of 18 A to support dynamic load conditions. The unit’s compact profile is reinforced by a Design Version 1 chassis and an IP20 protection rating for cabinet mounting.
Connecting seamlessly in modern automation environments, the controller employs a MultiEthernet communication interface to link with PLCs, HMIs, and higher-level controllers. Its Control Section Design Type BASIC configuration is Paired with Control Section Design 'BASIC' (B), ensuring straightforward setup and consistent firmware mapping — though the Firmware must be ordered as a separate sub position. Internal airflow cooling is handled via an Air, internal (through integrated blower) cooling method, maintaining thermal stability under continuous operation. Built-in STO (Safe Torque Off) safety interface safeguards personnel and machinery by disabling torque generation instantly during fault conditions.
Further expanding functionality, dual encoder interfaces support Encoder IndraDyn Hiperface/EnDat 2.1/2.2 on both Interface 1 and Interface 2 ports, allowing flexible feedback integration. The onboard Power Supply Unit Infeeding / Feeded design ensures reliable power distribution between converter sections and downstream modules. While this drive controller features no additional design extras (“None” under Other Design Features), it provides a clear upgrade path and optional firmware expansions for application-specific performance tuning.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the MultiEthernet interface improve industrial communication performance?
The MultiEthernet interface allows seamless connection with PLCs and HMIs. The interface ensures synchronized data exchange and stable real-time control across networks operating at 100 Mbit per second.
What benefit does the internal air cooling system provide during continuous operation?
The internal air cooling system maintains stable temperatures up to 45°C ambient. The integrated blower enables efficient heat dissipation and extends service life under 18 A load conditions.
Why is IP20 protection important for this controller’s installation?
The IP20 protection ensures the unit is shielded from solid particles larger than 12 mm. The rating allows safe mounting in electrical cabinets without additional enclosure sealing.
How does the STO safety interface contribute to operational safety?
The STO interface immediately disables torque output within milliseconds of activation. The safety circuit complies with SIL 2 and PL d standards to prevent hazardous motion.
What is the advantage of supporting dual encoder interfaces on this controller?
The dual encoder ports support IndraDyn Hiperface and EnDat 2.1 or 2.2 systems. The feature provides position feedback accuracy of less than 0.01° for high precision motion tasks.
