Product Description:

The VPB40.3D1L-1G0NN-D1D-DN-NN-FW industrial PC unit is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the VPB IndraControl PC Units series. Designed as a compact control platform, it houses the processing, communication, and storage resources needed to run IndraWorks or other automation software inside a machine cabinet. When integrated with motion controllers and I/O, the unit coordinates drives, visualizes process data, and exchanges information with higher-level networks, making it a central element in many manufacturing and material-handling cells.

It draws control power from a 24 V DC supply, allowing direct connection to standard cabinet power distribution rails. Under normal loading, the unit consumes 160 W, a level that eases thermal management and permits fan-based enclosure cooling. Two independent Ethernet controllers provide 2 x TCP/IP (1 Gbit/s) links so fieldbus gateways, HMIs, and host computers can be isolated on separate network segments without external switches. Peripheral devices such as scanners, data keys, or maintenance dongles connect through 6 x USB 2.0 ports located on the front plate, while application and operating-system files reside on a 1 x 320 GB hard disk that supports local data logging.

Machine-specific interface boards can be added through 2 x PCI expansion slots, allowing integration of proprietary motion cards or additional fieldbus masters without increasing cabinet depth. The electronics sit inside an IP20 housing, so the unit is intended for installation in protected electrical enclosures while allowing straightforward airflow. Overall height is 205 mm, and the enclosure also has a depth of 181 mm and a width of 110 mm, helping it fit beside modular drive stacks. A mass of 2.6 kg imposes minimal load on mounting hardware, and the design tolerates vibration up to 1 g and shock events up to 15 g encountered in typical plant environments.
