The HIPERDRIVE Hub is the central connecting station for up to eight HIPERDRIVE units (HDA 70 or PSE 441). The bus interface and control module in the hub allows all the connected drives to be activated via just one address. In addition, the HIPERDRIVE Hub distributes the operating voltage for the drives. This means that only one cable (max. length 20m) is now required for connecting a drive rather than the two or three previously needed. Both data and power for the drives are transmitted via the same cable. For the HIPERDRIVE Hub itself, alongside the fieldbus and 24 V motor supply voltage, only a 24 V auxiliary voltage is required for the bus interface and control module.
