VT 17230-11B

The VT 17230-11B servo amplifier from Bosch Rexroth Indramat is a core component of the VT Servo Amplifiers series, engineered for advanced industrial automation tasks. This compact unit measures 40 x 79 x 85.5 mm and weighs just 0.16 kg, facilitating installation in confined control cabinets. Rated for a nominal supply voltage of 24 V DC +40%/-10% and an operating supply voltage range of 21 to 35 V DC, the design ensures stable operation under fluctuating power conditions. Built to IP20 protection rating per EN 60529 standards, the amplifier maintains safety against accidental contact and solid foreign objects. Its robust enclosure and precise dimensions allow seamless integration on the standard DIN rail TH35-7.5 (EN 60715), optimizing space utilization and system layout.

Performance characteristics of the VT 17230-11B are defined by a maximum power consumption of 25 VA and a peak current draw of 1.2 A, providing energy-efficient operation under demanding loads. The input command voltage spans ±10 V with a 20 kΩ input resistance to guarantee precise signal detection and minimal noise. Users can tailor dynamic response through an adjustment range (ramp time) from 50 ms to 5 s and fine-tune motion profiles via an adjustment range (jump height) up to 50% of Imax. The output stage supports clock-pulse frequencies between 170–200 Hz ±15% or 230 Hz ±15%, enabling customizable motor drive frequency for varied servo motors. These technical features work in tandem to deliver smooth acceleration, deceleration, and torque control across a wide performance envelope.

Designed for reliable long-term operation in industrial environments, the VT 17230-11B requires secure connectivity through its 12 screw terminals for power and control signals. The amplifier activates when the enable input (active) is ≥10 V and deactivates below 8 V, preventing unintended engagement. Engineers benefit from a one-year warranty that underscores manufacturing confidence and simplifies maintenance planning. The module’s compact footprint, precise mounting, and rugged construction make it ideal for applications ranging from conveyor drives and robotics to packaging machinery and material handling systems. By combining Bosch Rexroth Indramat’s proven quality with versatile configuration options, this servo amplifier delivers dependable integration and performance in diverse industrial automation scenarios.
