Dimensions, Mounting & Connection Notes
The DKC10.3-018-3-MGP-01VRS is a compact drive controller with approximate dimensions of 70 mm width × 182 mm height × 170 mm depth and a weight of approximately 1.8–2.1 kg. It is intended for vertical cabinet mounting. Power, motor, control and interface connections follow the standard EcoDrive Cs layout. Adequate ventilation and clearance must be provided. Optimal ambient temperature is below 45 °C; installation height should preferably remain below 1000 m (maximum 2000 m).
Detailed Product Overview
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat DKC10.3-018-3-MGP-01VRS is a digital AC servo drive controller from the DKC series within the EcoDrive Cs platform. The type designation is structured as follows:
- DKC = Drive controller family
- 10 = Series / line number
- .3 = Design version 3
- 018 = 18 A rated current
- 3 = 300 V DC-bus class
- MGP = Multi-interface, General Purpose firmware
- 01 = Firmware version 01
- VRS = Standard release status
The controller generates a regulated three-phase output for permanent-magnet synchronous servo motors. Continuous current rating is 18 A and the internal DC bus is rated at a nominal 300 V. The unit is supplied with multi-interface general-purpose firmware (MGP-01VRS), which supports analog and serial interfaces as well as optional add-on cards for additional communication or function modules.
The drive is designed for single-axis or multi-axis configurations and is commonly applied with motors in the approximate 750 W power class. Mechanical dimensions are compact (approximately 70 × 182 × 170 mm), making the unit suitable for dense control-cabinet layouts. Weight is in the region of 1.8–2.1 kg.
Operating conditions recommend ambient temperatures below 45 °C for full performance (operating range approximately 5–55 °C) and installation altitudes preferably below 1000 m (maximum 2000 m). The controller is intended for IP20 cabinet environments.
As a legacy EcoDrive Cs product, the DKC10.3-018-3-MGP-01VRS is no longer manufactured as a current-series device. Units available on the market are generally repaired, refurbished or surplus. Correct parameterisation and matching of firmware, motor data and interface configuration are required for reliable operation.

Applications & System Role
The DKC10.3-018-3-MGP-01VRS serves as the power and control stage for one servo axis (or coordinated multi-axis systems) within an EcoDrive Cs installation. It converts the incoming supply into a regulated three-phase output for the connected servo motor and executes speed, torque or position commands received from a higher-level controller. Typical applications include packaging machinery, assembly systems, material handling and general industrial automation requiring compact servo drives.
