VT 5006 S16
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat VT 5006 S16 IO card belongs to the reputable VT-5000 IO Cards series, designed to deliver robust industrial automation performance.
This compact module supports a primary operating voltage of 24 VDC (+40% / -5%) and provides precise signal levels with a voltage amplitude of 5 V per output. Integration is simplified through a 32-pin male multi-point connector mounted on a Euro format board measuring 100 × 160 mm, compatible with standard mounting systems. Signal timing is governed by a clock frequency of 1.5 kHz, complemented by an onboard oscillator adjustable to 2.5 kHz ±10%. Solenoid actuation is accommodated via a solenoid current of 2.2 A ±20% and coil resistance rated at 2150 Ω at 20 °C. The card includes a 2.5 A fuse for overload protection, ensuring uninterrupted operation in demanding environments.
Performance characteristics center on fast, accurate control and stable voltage regulation. The card delivers a regulated ±9 V output with ±1% tolerance, externally loadable up to 25 mA, and features low idle draw with current consumption below 2 A. A ramp time adjustable between 30 ms and approximately 1 or 5 seconds (±20%) enables customizable solenoid drive profiles for smooth engagement. Response dynamics are enhanced by a relay with a response voltage of 16.8 V and a release threshold at 2.4 V, supporting rapid switching. The device operates across standard mains frequency of 50/60 Hz, providing consistency in global installations. Maximum output command values range from 0 to 10 V for channel 5, and ±9 V for channels 1 through 4, facilitating versatile control schemes.
Reliability and integration are hallmarks of the VT 5006 S16 design. The module’s compact mass of 0.15 kg streamlines installation in space-constrained control panels and ensures mechanical robustness. It functions reliably within an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C and can be stored safely between –25 °C and +85 °C. Industrial-grade components and overload protection safeguard internal circuitry against faults, while the standardized Euro format allows plug-and-play replacement and system expansion. Ideal applications include hydraulic valve control, actuator drive systems, and general-purpose IO expansion in stringent industrial automation environments.
