8EI8X8HWT10.0600-1
The 8EI8X8HWT10.0600-1 from B & R Automation represents a robust solution within the 8EI Servo Drives series, engineered to meet demanding industrial automation requirements. This three-phase module supports a nominal voltage of 3x 200-480 VAC and delivers up to 10 kVA load capacity for peak power demands. The drive features a 24 A peak current rating with a default switching frequency of 500 Hz, balancing efficiency and thermal performance. Packaged in a durable stainless steel housing, it carries an IP67 protection rating for operation in harsh environments. Weighing just 4 kg and designed for wall mounting, this compact unit simplifies installation in confined control cabinets.
With a 3-axis module configuration and built-in internal braking resistor, the 8EI8X8HWT10.0600-1 servo drive offers versatile motion control across multiple axes. Its hardwired STO safety technology with encoder ensures functional safety and immediate torque shutdown in hazardous conditions. The drive accepts an operating range from -25 °C to +70 °C without performance loss, and is rated for installations up to 500 m altitude before derating occurs. It can be configured as a 1-axis or 2-axis module for system scalability, and no plug-in modules are required for standard functionality. The tolerance of ±25% for auxiliary electronics allows stable operation on 24 V DC control power, enhancing compatibility with common PLC interfaces.
Operational efficiency is enhanced by the drive’s precision PWM control, which can be adjusted to 5, 10, or 20 kHz to reduce motor noise and torque ripple as needed. The device automatically reduces current output by 0.373 A for each 1 °C rise above 45.2 °C, protecting against thermal overload. An integrated LED status indicator provides real-time diagnostics for quick fault identification, while the front cover design allows for tool-free access during routine maintenance. The lack of customization options and module-specific add-ons streamlines procurement, ensuring a consistent, repeatable solution across production lines. Robust stainless steel construction and IP67 sealing guarantee uninterrupted service even under exposure to dust, moisture, and contaminants.
This servo drive integrates seamlessly with B & R’s ACOPOS P3 control ecosystem and can be combined with standard I/O modules, safety controllers, and HMI panels. Its standardized wall-mount form factor and stainless steel front cover facilitate straightforward retrofit into existing machine frames. Ideal applications include packaging machinery, material handling systems, and robotic assembly lines where precise multi-axis coordination is required. With its combination of safety features, power density, and environmental resilience, the 8EI8X8HWT10.0600-1 excels in advanced industrial automation scenarios.
