Product Description:

The BTA05.1-AM is a machine control board manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the BTA05 Machine Control Boards series. It groups operator pushbuttons, key switches, and safety contacts on a single front panel, providing control cabinets with a tidy, ready-wired interface for start, stop, and emergency functions. The unit is intended for door mounting on automated production equipment. Its basic color is RAL 7035 light gray, which matches standard enclosure paint and keeps printed legends legible under shop lighting.

The board’s housing measures 318 mm in width, 112 mm in height, and 67.5 mm in depth, allowing it to sit flush on most 19-inch cabinet doors without interfering with adjacent hardware. A front-panel rating of IP65 blocks dust and low-pressure water jets, allowing machinery to be washed down while keeping the internal electronics dry. The frame contains six total card slots, providing room for process-specific I/O or communication adapters while reserving space for expansion. These values must be considered when planning clearances, gasket selection, and cable strain relief for integration into a line control station.

The overlay is made from chemically resistant polyester, so solvents used during equipment cleaning do not blur the printed symbols. Beneath the overlay, a lacquered aluminum front surface provides mechanical stiffness and resists corrosion. For safety, the panel has three normally closed emergency-stop contacts that open when the red mushroom button is pressed, immediately removing drive enables. The board includes five fitted slots, leaving one open position for a selected module without exceeding the original depth profile. The combination of a rigid front surface and solvent-resistant overlay helps the controls withstand repeated operation and routine cleaning in industrial settings.
