XCS2-W0054ARN-02NETM5ECNN-S04RSN1NNNN3NN by Bosch Rexroth Indramat

The Bosch Rexroth Indramat XCS2-W0054ARN-02NETM5ECNN-S04RSN1NNNN3NN is a single-axis precision converter in the XCS Single Axis CtrlX Converters series, designed for high-performance industrial motion control. This axis converter integrates advanced safety and encoder interfaces to support continuous dynamic operation with reliable feedback. It delivers a wide output voltage range of AC 0-500 V or DC 280-710 V and operates at standard mains frequencies of 50-60 Hz, making it compatible with diverse power systems. Rated for an output frequency of 1600 Hz and a switching frequency of 16 kHz, the unit achieves rapid response times suited to demanding automation tasks. Built-in SafeMotion (M5) functionality provides a certified Safe Torque Off (STO) feature to enhance workplace safety without external modules.

Detailed technical specifications define the XCS2’s capability envelope. The converter measures 196.5 mm depth, 100 mm width, and 309 mm height and has a mass of 5.8 kg, supporting compact installations. It features a multi-encoder interface as Hardware Option 2 Detail, eliminating the need for additional encoder modules and enabling simultaneous feedback from multiple sensors. Communication is handled via Multi-Ethernet with support for Sercos III, while control is managed by the integrated ctrlX DRIVEplus hardware. Cooling is provided by an Air, internal system, and the power stage incorporates an integrated braking transistor/braking resistor. The device requires no export license for frequencies up to 599 Hz, facilitating global deployment.

Operational performance is optimized through precise control and robust current handling. The XCS2 sustains a Rated Input Current of AC 34.5 A and delivers continuous Output Current of AC 27 A, DC 29.4 A under full load. The Rated Control Voltage Input of 24 V ensures compatibility with common industrial control voltages. With an IP20 protection rating, the converter resists dust ingress in enclosed control cabinets. Its high switching frequency reduces audible noise and minimizes torque ripple, while the safety-integrated STO feature immediately halts motor output in fault conditions. Internal durable materials and a simplified interface layout promote reliable, long-term operation in standard factory environments.

System integration aligns with Bosch Rexroth’s ctrlX Automation platform, where the XCS2 interfaces seamlessly with PLCs, HMI panels, and higher-level control systems. The unit’s compact form factor and standardized communication protocols make it ideal for packaging machines, conveyors, and robotic applications requiring precise speed and position control. Target applications include industrial automation lines, material handling systems, and assembly cells that demand synchronized multi-axis motion with enhanced safety. By combining advanced encoder flexibility, certified safety functions, and robust electrical performance, the XCS2 converter delivers a turnkey solution for modern industrial drive architectures.
