The Bosch Rexroth Indramat VT 5051 IO card is a high-performance interface module in the VT-5000 IO Cards series, designed to streamline signal exchange in advanced automation environments. This unit, identified by part_number VT 5051, operates on a standard industrial Operating Voltage of 230 V AC and maintains a Power Consumption of 500 W, ensuring compatibility with common power infrastructures. Housed in a robust Material: Stainless Steel enclosure, the card measures Dimensions: 160 mm x 160 mm x 50 mm and weighs Weight: 3.2 kg, providing a balanced power-to-mass ratio for panel-mounted installations. With an Input Frequency of 50/60 Hz, the VT 5051 adapts seamlessly to global power standards, eliminating the need for additional converters. Its Protection Rating of IP65 guarantees dust-tight integrity and resistance to low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for harsh industrial settings.
Performance is further enhanced by the integrated Communication Protocol: RS485, which supports long-distance, noise-resistant data transmission across complex networks. The card’s Control Interface of 4-20 mA current loop output ensures precise analog signaling, delivering real-time feedback proportional to measured parameters. Operating within a wide Operating Temperature range from –20 °C to 70 °C, the module sustains stable performance under extreme thermal conditions. The stainless steel construction not only contributes to its IP65 sealing but also improves electromagnetic compatibility by minimizing structural resonance. These design features collectively enable the VT 5051 to maintain consistent data throughput, low latency, and high signal integrity, even when deployed in vibration-intensive or dusty environments.
Reliability and ease of integration are hallmarks of the VT 5051, which employs a straightforward Mounting Type: Panel Mount configuration for secure, accessible installation in control cabinets. The ruggedized steel housing and high ingress protection facilitate use in industries ranging from automotive assembly lines to packaging machinery. Thanks to its standardized electrical and mechanical interfaces, the card can be seamlessly incorporated into existing PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems without extensive rewiring or custom adapters. Maintenance is simplified by the durable design and readily available spare parts, minimizing downtime and lifecycle cost. Engineers will find the VT 5051 an ideal choice for critical applications in manufacturing, robotics, process control, and other industrial automation sectors requiring unwavering operational stability.
