Product Description:

The BTM15.2-NA-TA-TA-VA-SA-2EA is a modular user panel produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the BTM15 Machine Operator Panels series. It is intended to give machine operators direct access to spindle speed, feed overrides, and an emergency stop chain on CNC and packaging lines. By combining field I/O with an ergonomically arranged front face, the panel lets a control cabinet remain sealed while still providing tactile controls near the process, simplifying human-machine interaction in distributed automation architectures.

Design index 2 identifies the product version for this panel. The panel communicates with higher-level PLCs through the INTERBUS-S serial bus, and this fieldbus allows deterministic exchange of digital status signals within the INTERBUS remote I/O ring. Internally, it offers 16 inputs and 16 outputs that the control program can map to safety mats, selector switches, or lamp columns. The die-cast front shell meets IP65, so dust and low-pressure water jets cannot penetrate the operator side when the unit is flush mounted on a machine door. The panel fits within a footprint of 407 x 169 x 100 mm, which helps in cramped console cutouts.

The housing rear remains open and is rated at IP00, so all wiring must be kept inside a protected cabinet zone. A powder-coated faceplate in RAL 7035 light gray matches standard electrical enclosures and helps reduce glare. The core electronics form a spindle override module built to module design A; when inserted into series line 15 racks, it is recognized automatically and occupies slots 2 through 4. A locking emergency-stop button with two normally closed channels is integrated on the front for category-compliant stop circuits. Despite these features, the panel weighs only 2 kg, which reduces loading on swing arms or pendant brackets.
