3 System Overview
PacDrive SCL
Motor with
integrated
MotorController
The compact size of the PacDrive SCL combines motor and power 
electronics in the smallest space. The innovative SCL has the 
motor, the power output level and the digital servo controller for an 
axis in one casing, which saves space. Thanks to the compact size 
with integrated controller, it is perfectly suited for distributed 
installation. It is available with single- or multi-turn encoder and 
configures itself with the help of the electronic type plate inside the 
SCL.
Highlights
 Compact size
 3.5-fold peak torque
 Integrated SERCOS interface
 High-resolution single- or multi-turn encoders
 IP65 / IP67 protection means
 Easy wiring
 High failure proofness
 Trapezoid shape
 Aseptic variant IP67 (with positive pressure option)
PacDrive PS-4
Centralized
supply
The power supply unit PS-4 is characterized by a compact and 
autonomous structure for switching cabinet installation plus highly 
modern technology. All PacDrive SCLs are served on just one line 
via the PacDrive PS-4, which is quick to install. PS-4 thus fits 
smoothly into the extremely flexible modular drive concept.
Highlights
 1- or 3-phase power supply
 Integrated mains filter and bleeder
 5 kW permanent power / 10 kW peak power
 DC-circuit power for up to 32 SCL-055s (depending on the 
application)
 Integrated SERCOS interface
 Full diagnosis facilities thanks to integrated controller
 Easy installation
PacDrive PD-8
Flexible
distributor
The PacDrive PD-8 power distribution box is the link between PS-4 
and SCL. One "distributor" to which 1 to 8 SCL hybrid cables can 
be connected, depending on the number of drives. If more than 8 
drives are operated, simply extend the system by one or several 
PD-8 distributors. Like the SCL, the PacDrive PD-8 is available in 
standard and aseptic variants.
Information on further components is available in the operating 
manual PacDrive PS-4 and PacDrive PD-8. Information on further 
components is available in the Project Manual.
