Schneider Electric MHDS1028N00 Sercos Servo Drive

Schneider Electric MHDS1028N00 Sercos Servo Drive is a Lexium 17S single‑axis servo drive that combines a three‑phase brushless servo amplifier, a built‑in power supply, a high‑performance digital controller, and a SERCOS fiber‑optic interface in a single enclosure. It is designed for earthed three‑phase industrial mains networks (TN systems, or TT systems with an earthed neutral) and supports network configurations up to 5000 rms symmetrical amperes. The 17S family model MHDS1028N00, along with MHDS1004N00, MHDS1008N00, and MHDS1017N00, shares an identical housing, while MHDS1056N00 uses a wider enclosure. The MHDS1028N00 delivers a peak output current of 28 A, placing it in the 28A class of the 17S family. In a typical 17S installation, the drive is configured on a SERCOS network with a Schneider multi‑axis motion controller to transmit motion commands to multiple axes, enabled by the drive’s integrated controller and SERCOS interface for fiber‑optic, real‑time communication. At 480 V mains, the Lexium 17S drive family specifies an energy‑absorption capability of 23 joules without engaging the Regen resistor circuit. Note that several distributors list MHDS1028N00 as discontinued by Schneider Electric, so availability should be confirmed with current stock or an authorized distributor.
