VT-3013
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat VT-3013 analog amplifier from the VT 3000 Analog Amplifiers series is a compact, high-performance control module designed for precision industrial automation. Boasting a net weight of 0.17 kg, this Euro-card device delivers flexible analog and digital command interfaces with short-circuit-proof output up to 2.5 A. Its low power profile draws less than 2 A of current and under 50 VA of power consumption, making it highly efficient and suitable for systems with limited power budgets. The unit operates on a wide supply voltage range from 18 V to 35 V, ensuring compatibility with diverse control environments. With adjustable ramping and zero-point settings, the VT-3013 adapts to dynamic process requirements and supports fine-tuned actuation performance.
The VT-3013’s technical specifications reflect its robust design. It accepts voltage command inputs of 0 ±10 V with an input resistance greater than 100 kΩ and current commands of 4–20 mA into a 100 Ω load. The output stage delivers 0–2.5 A, safeguarded against short circuits, while the module’s own consumption remains below 2 A. It operates reliably within an admissible temperature range of 0 … 50 °C and requires under 50 VA of total power. The amplifier measures Euro-card 100 × 160 mm, fitting standard rack systems, and draws enable signals on digital input thresholds of 8.5 V … UB with >100 kΩ input resistance.
Operationally, users can configure ramp times from 20 ms to 5 s, or switch to an extended range of 0.2 to 50 s, to optimize response to command changes. Zero-point adjustments span ±30 % for precise signal calibration. The digital enable input transitions to ON-state at voltages above 8.5 V, integrating seamlessly with upstream logic. Short-circuit-proof current output up to 2.5 A ensures fail-safe operation of proportional valves. Combined with stable performance across its temperature range and minimal weight of 0.17 kg, the VT-3013 supports high-duty cycles without thermal degradation.
System integration is simplified by its Euro-card form factor and standard rack compatibility, enabling plug-and-play installation in modular control cabinets. The VT-3013 interfaces directly with analog positioners, flow controllers, and proportional solenoid valves, providing accurate, repeatable control loops. Its low power consumption and versatile input options make it ideal for industrial automation tasks such as hydraulic valve actuation, process control systems, and machine tool positioning. As a result, the Bosch Rexroth Indramat VT-3013 delivers precision proportional control for demanding manufacturing and processing applications.
