8EI4X5HWDS0.0300-1
The 8EI4X5HWDS0.0300-1 servo drive is manufactured by B&R Automation and belongs to the 8EI Servo Drives series. It is an integrated power stage that converts three-phase mains power into controlled output for synchronous or induction servo motors in packaging lines, pick-and-place cells, and other industrial automation equipment. By combining drive electronics and fieldbus connectivity in one housing, it forms the main interface between a machine controller and its motors. The unit coordinates torque, speed, and position commands so automated axes can follow repeatable motion profiles during production.
This version is a 2-axis module, so two independent motor windings can be driven from one unit. Each channel is rated for a continuous output of 4.5 Aeff, which sets the available current for connected axes during steady operation. Input power accepts 3 x 200-480 VAC, allowing use on both 230 V and 400 V factory supplies without modification. Integrated functional safety is provided through SafeMOTION with a digital encoder interface for stop and speed monitoring. Mechanical installation uses wall mounting, which places the heat sink vertically to aid convection and conserve enclosure depth. Because the drive contains two channels in one housing, cabinet wiring can be concentrated in a single location while each axis remains separately controlled.
Signal and power terminations use Connector Set 2 (2-row), and the single-row set is not included. A sealed front cover shields live parts during operation and helps protect the connection area. The drive has no internal braking resistor, so regenerated energy must be routed to an external resistor or a shared DC bus. It is delivered without plug-in option boards and keeps the standard module configuration. With the high-density connector format, power and signal wiring can be grouped tightly at the front of the unit, which helps in shallow cabinets.
