Product Description

The VT 1600-S-2X is a servo amplifier. It is designed and manufactured by Bosch Rexroth. It belongs to the VT 1600 product range. VT 1600 electronic amplifier cards are used to control servo valves. The amplifier installs on a card holder or in a Euro card magazine. It is designed for vertical mounting. The front plate of the VT 1600-S-2X measures 128 x 5 millimeters. The size of the main amplifier PCB is 100 x 160 millimeters. The amplifier converts an input signal to output current for the valve. The value of the output current can be monitored via an ammeter provided on the module front plate. The VT 1600-S-2X features an integrated PID control circuit. The PID circuit allows module tuning for optimum performance. Three potentiometers, that are accessible through the face plate, allow easy and simple adjustment of PID values.

Weight of the VT 1600-S-2X is approximately 0.33 pounds. The working temperature range is 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. The temperature range specified for module storage is -20 to 70 degrees Celsius. The coil on an internal relay has a nominal resistance of 2000 Ohms. The relay coil voltage is 22 to 28 volts DC and the relay duty cycle is 1 millisecond. The power supply range for the VT 1600-S-2X depends on whether a voltage regulator is present or has been removed. The current draw of the VT 1600-S-2X is always less than 200 milliamps. The output current range is ±60 milliamps or ±100 milliamps. To prevent equipment damage, only trained personnel should handle the VT 1600-S-2X amplifier and associated equipment. Special care must be taken to switch off amplifier power before connecting or disconnecting it.
