Product Description:
Bosch Rexroth Indramat makes the VT-SKWA1-5-10/V0/0. Under normal operating conditions, the amplifier draws 1.2A, this is important to calculate the power consumption and heat dissipation of the device. The current rating is a key factor that determines the power supplied to the amplifier circuitry and has a direct impact on its stability and efficiency. The VT-SKWA1-5-10/V0/0 has a maximum current setting that can be adjusted up to 1.8A so you can tune the amplifier output to meet your operating requirements. This is achieved by adjusting the bias current, which allows the amplifier to meet various power requirements, including those imposed by the fluctuating load on the proportional valve attached. To ensure the safety and lifespan of the overall automation system, system designers must consider these current characteristics to prevent overloading the amplifier.
The adjustable bias current of this amplifier is one of its features; its factory default is 0mA but can be adjusted to 300mA. The bias current is essential to set the valve dynamic response and baseline output. Users can adjust this value to suit their application, for example, to adjust for initial deadband or static friction in the control system since there is no initial bias (set to 0mA). This adjustment range allows to tune of the proportional valve operation to have precise and repeatable flow control or positioning. In many industrial applications the ability to adjust this bias current is crucial to get the desired system behavior and improve the system stability and responsiveness. For control and communication, the VT-SKWA1-5-10/V0/0 amplifier has a switching range up to the supply voltage (UB) and takes a command value input that works between 0 and 10 V.
The switching range is probably a threshold where a discrete switching occurs, and the command value is the external control signal that sets the proportional valve output. By setting the input impedance of the amplifier to 20 kΩ, the current taken from the control signal source is reduced, and signal integrity is preserved. This is important to ensure the internal circuitry of the amplifier processes and transmits the command signal correctly. More freedom to adjust the system dynamic response is given by the ramp time, which can be set between 60 milliseconds and 5 seconds. A longer ramp time can be used to smooth out movements and avoid oscillations, a shorter ramp time is suitable for high-performance applications that need fast transitions. With a 4-screw terminal cable gland or a 4-pin M12 connector as connection options, the VT-SKWA1-5-10/V0/0 is designed for strong physical integration.
