Product Description:

The VSB40.1G4E-512NN-C1D-BE-LS-FW is an industrial PC unit manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and supplied within the VSB Industrial PC Units series. Designed as the computational core for automated machinery, the device provides operating system hosting, visualization, and real-time communication functions that tie drives, I/O, and higher-level controls together on the factory floor. Its compact enclosure allows mounting in crowded cabinets without blocking neighboring modules. It is suited for motion, packaging, and assembly cells that require cabinet-mounted control hardware.

Electrical power is drawn from a nominal 24 V DC supply present in most machine buses. Processing is handled by a Celeron 440 that runs at 2 GHz and is paired with 512 MB of RAM and a 30 GB hard disk that stores the operating system and process data. A DVD±RW optical drive on the connector side supports software loading and backup. Expansion cards fit inside the 6-slot PCI box, while operator terminals attach through the GIGASTAR control-panel interface or the dedicated 25-pin D-Sub G4 display connector. Two USB ports and the standard interface group accommodate external peripherals, and asynchronous devices can communicate at up to 115200 bit/s across the serial port. The aluminum housing has an IP20 rating, so enclosure-level protection is required.

Thermal and mechanical criteria govern cabinet layout. A clearance of 50 mm around the ventilation openings keeps internal temperatures within the +5 °C to +45 °C operating window, and the ventilation area should remain unobstructed for proper airflow. The chassis withstands transportation or in-service shocks of up to 5 g and continuous vibration of 0.25 g, matching typical machining centers and conveyor stations. Graphics output reaches a maximum VGA resolution of 1600 x 1200, driven by 8 MB of video memory for basic HMI imaging. The unit is design version 1 and part of line 40.
