VT 4593-36 A
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat VT 4593-36 A is a high-performance I/O card from the VT-5000 IO Cards series, designed for demanding industrial automation environments. Operating at a nominal voltage of 24 V DC (+40% / -10%), it consumes < 50 VA of power, while delivering a stable regulated ±9 V ±1% output to downstream control circuits. With an oscillator frequency of 2.5 kHz ±10%, this module ensures precise timing and synchronization for real-time control applications. Its primary function is to interface and process digital and analog signals, enabling reliable communication between sensors, actuators, and industrial controllers.
Incorporating a 32-pin male DIN 41612 form D connector and conforming to Euro-card 100 x 160 mm (DIN 41494) dimensions, the VT 4593-36 A offers seamless integration into standard rack systems. Signal integrity is maintained through a self-clocking clock frequency up to ~1.5 kHz and low output impedance (Ri = 100 Ω) for both command and position sockets. The module’s current consumption is < 2 A, protected by a 2.5 A T fuse, while inductive transducer outputs supply up to 30 mA at 5 V amplitude. Ramp time adjustment ranges from 30 ms to 1 s or 5 s (±20%), allowing fine control of output transitions and minimizing mechanical stress.
Durability and compatibility are hallmarks of this I/O card, with an operating voltage range of 22 V – 35 V and robust shielding to protect against electromagnetic interference. The card supports solenoid currents of Imax 1.8 A (VT5005) and 2.2 A (VT5006) with ±20% tolerance, enabling integration with a wide variety of valve and actuator assemblies. Its DIN 41412 connector and standard Euro-card form factor ensure interchangeability within Bosch Rexroth racks and with other compliant systems. The reliable signal processing, low noise characteristics, and plug-and-play setup reduce commissioning time and maintenance costs. In industrial applications, the VT 4593-36 A delivers enhanced uptime, precise control, and long-term operational stability, translating to higher productivity and lower total cost of ownership.
