Product Description:

The VSB40.1G4E-512NN-C1C-AE-LS-FW industrial computer is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the VSB Industrial PC Units series. Serving as the central processing element in an automation cell, this unit executes motion commands, data logging, and visualization while communicating with operator stations over the GIGASTAR control-panel link. It consolidates control logic and human-machine interface functions inside a single enclosure so downstream drives and I/O modules can be coordinated without additional converters. This arrangement allows one cabinet-mounted unit to manage both machine control tasks and panel communication.

The PC operates from an input of AC 115 to 230 V and maintains clock stability across the universal 50/60 Hz mains range. A Celeron 440 processor running at not less than 2 GHz is paired with 512 MB of DDR memory for deterministic task scheduling. Program files and operating-system images reside on a 3.5-inch hard disk with a capacity of 20 GB, while a DVD ± RW optical drive provides removable backup in the housing's connector direction. The memory supports the operating system and control software, and the hard disk provides local storage for application data. A standard interface set and line code 40 allow peripheral attachment without vendor-specific adapters. Heat produced by the electronics is limited by a power budget of 250 W, enabling the PC box to fit into dense control cabinets.

The supply can draw up to 330 W at 230 VAC during peak loading, so cabinet power sizing must reserve that headroom. Reliable operation is specified up to 2000 m altitude and ambient temperatures not exceeding 45 °C, allowing installation on most plant floors without auxiliary climate control. Expansion boards for fieldbus or additional I/O fit into a 6 slot PCI chassis, and video output uses 8 MB of dedicated memory to drive the linked panel. The available PCI space supports added communication or interface cards when the machine requires more connectivity.
