Product Description:

Bosch Rexroth Indramat’s VEP30.4EFU-512NC-MAD-1G0-NN-FW is an embedded operator terminal from the VEP Embedded Terminals series. The unit integrates control electronics, a color panel, and network connectivity, giving machine builders a single component that gathers process data and presents it to personnel on the factory floor. By combining visualization and local computation, the terminal reduces cabinet wiring and allows direct mounting on enclosures or swing arms near the controlled machine. This layout keeps the operator interface close to the machine process for local monitoring and input.

The terminal offers 512 MB of application memory so visualization objects, system files, and user recipes can reside internally without external storage. A removable 1 GB CompactFlash card supplements this space and allows data updates or log retrieval. Operators view process values on an 8.4 in TFT panel driven at 800 × 600 resolution, a combination that delivers clear graphics while keeping cycle times low for screen refresh. The front bezel carries a rating of IP65, sealing the display against dust and low-pressure water when the device is inserted in a properly gasketed panel. All electronics are supplied through the backlight inverter and logic regulators that together draw no more than 50 W, permitting installation in cabinets with limited power budgets.

Physical integration is simplified by a depth of 88 mm, a width of 296 mm, and a height of 200 mm, so the cutout can share space with contactors or small drives. The aluminum housing weighs only 2.3 kg, easing arm-mounted installations. Nominal supply is 24 V DC, and internal converters tolerate excursions between 19 V and 30 V without loss of display brightness. The rear of the unit is rated IP20 because the ventilation slots remain inside the enclosure once the bezel is seated. Communication with higher-level controllers is handled over PROFIBUS DP, letting the terminal exchange cyclic data while the CompactFlash card archives events and alarms.
