iC7 System Module
HIL Compatible®
Bring Danfoss iC7 Control into the HIL Loop
HIL Compatible® Technology for Danfoss iC7 System Products
Co-developed with Danfoss Drives, the MyDrive HIL iC7 System Drive is a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) solution purpose-built for the iC7 System Module family — Danfoss’s multi-converter architecture for high-power industrial, marine, and hybrid applications. Each system includes real Danfoss control hardware, firmware, and software for authentic C-HIL testing across all iC7 System Module variants: iC7 Automation, iC7 Marine, and iC7 Hybrid.
A single unit hosts three fully independent controllers, and multiple units can be combined to mirror larger, real-world system configurations. Engineers can develop, validate, and commission applications on actual control hardware in a safe test environment.
iC7 System Module HIL Compatible® allows you to:
- Test difficult scenarios safely: Validate critical operating conditions in a controlled environment while reducing the risk of equipment damage.
- Reduce commissioning time: Optimize and verify system behaviour earlier to cut test and commissioning time from days to hours.
- Maintain and improve over the lifetime: Run automated tests on every software update to keep the system reliable long after commissioning.
