Product catalog summary
Specifications:
The MC 3603 S motion controller supports a power supply for electronics ranging from 6 to 36 V DC and for motors from 0 to 36 V DC. It operates with a PWM switching frequency of 100 kHz and has an electronic efficiency of 95%. The maximum continuous output current is 3 A, with a peak output current of 9 A for up to 5 seconds. The operating temperature range is -40 to +85 °C, and the mass varies between 45 g and 68 g depending on the interface.

Interfaces and Configuration:
The controller is available with RS232, CANopen, or EtherCAT interfaces and can be configured using Motion Manager 6.7 via RS232 or USB. It supports various motor types, including brushless, DC, and linear motors, and is compatible with multiple sensor systems such as absolute and incremental encoders, Hall sensors, and tachometers.

Functional Capabilities:
The MC 3603 S offers multiple operating modes, including position, speed, and torque control, and supports homing according to IEC standards. It can handle a speed range of 0 to 30,000 min-1 with sinusoidal commutation, extendable to 60,000 min-1 with block commutation. The controller can run up to 8 application programs, one of which can be set to autostart.

Additional Features:
Additional functionalities include a touch-probe input, the ability to connect a second incremental encoder, and control of a holding brake. Indicator LEDs display the operating state, and the device includes a trace function for recording and logging.

Connection and Compatibility:
The controller features multiple connection points for USB configuration, fieldbus, and input/output for motor and electronic power supply. It is compatible with a wide range of DC, brushless DC, and linear DC motors, with specific encoder combinations available for enhanced functionality.

Accessories:
A comprehensive range of accessories, including connection cables and connector sets, is available to complement the MC 3603 controller series. For detailed technical data and performance notes, refer to the technical information provided by the manufacturer.
