XCS2-W0023ARN-02AETM5ECNN-S03RSN2NNNN5NN by Bosch Rexroth Indramat

The XCS2-W0023ARN-02AETM5ECNN-S03RSN2NNNN5NN is a precision axis converter from Bosch Rexroth Indramat, forming part of the XCS Single Axis CtrlX Converters series. This compact unit operates on a nominal voltage of 12V DC and weighs just 150g, making it ideal for space-constrained installations. With an IP65 ingress protection rating and robust aluminium alloy and high-quality plastic construction, it offers reliable performance in harsh industrial environments. Measuring 50mm x 30mm x 20mm, the converter’s small footprint simplifies mounting and minimizes structural loading.

Technical performance is anchored by Multi-Ethernet communication and support for EtherCAT (SoE) protocol, supplemented by CAN Bus compatibility for versatile network integration. The converter delivers a peak maximum current of 23 A and a continuous power rating of 30W, ensuring efficient energy conversion. Built on the ctrlX DRIVEplus control hardware platform, it integrates a SafeMotion (M5) safety function and features an Integrated braking transistor/braking resistor in its power section. Export compliance is straightforward with an Export License Requirement: No (maximum output < 599 Hz), and the unit includes a Multi-encoder interface for advanced feedback options.

Operationally, the converter excels across a wide environmental range from –20°C to 70°C with humidity tolerance from 5% to 95% non-condensing. An internal air cooling system maintains optimal thermal conditions, while a With panel option provides easy local access to status indicators and adjustment controls. The device omits an external motor connector set, simplifying wiring, and has no additional design features that could complicate maintenance. As a second-generation ctrlX DRIVE, Single-axis converter, it delivers stable current output and smooth motion control under continuous heavy-duty use.

Integration of the XCS2-W0023ARN-02AETM5ECNN-S03RSN2NNNN5NN into existing automation architectures is seamless thanks to its compact size and standardized interfaces. Its durable build and compact size support applications in robotics, packaging machinery, and CNC tool systems where precise, reliable motion control is critical. Engineers can leverage its versatile communication protocols and comprehensive safety functions to optimize system performance. This converter stands out as an efficient, scalable solution for modern industrial automation deployments.
