The Bosch Rexroth DRIVE KIT VFPLUS VAR (3842998291) is an advanced solution designed to operate the basic head drive connection drive units and the return unit closed drive. The kit includes a flange for motor attachment, a hexagonal shaft for force transmission, and optional equipment features. It is available in aluminum (SP AL) or stainless steel (SP STS) versions, accommodating different environmental requirements and applications. This DRIVE KIT VFPLUS VAR offers compatibility with Lenze gear motor GM for standard applications or provides an interface for SEW SA gear motor GM installation, catering to various operational needs. Customers may need to adapt the kit for other gear motors GM, indicating the system's flexibility. The speed can be set as fixed (vN) or adjustable; in the latter case, an FU frequency converter must be retrofitted to the gear motors. Connections are established using either terminal boxes AT K or plugs AT S. The GM motor does not include surface and corrosion protection as standard, ensuring that users can select the appropriate level of protection based on their specific use case. The kit is designed with innovation in mind, offering a novel drive concept that enhances flexibility and reduces delivery times due to its use of standardized components. This DRIVE KIT VFPLUS VAR is ideal for creating complete drives by combining it with head drive direct units or return units. It also serves multi-track systems and alpine conveyors effectively. Its side elements come with slots for holding accessories, supporting pulling section operations while pushing and reversible operation can be requested. In summary, this configurable drive kit from Bosch Rexroth delivers high flexibility and quick integration into various conveyor systems while maintaining a compact installation profile through its innovative design and standardized components.


The drive kit is designed to operate the basic head drive/connection drive units and the return unit (closed drive).

The drive kit contains a flange for attaching the motor to the basic unit, a hexagonal shaft for transmission of force, as well as other optional equipment features.

The drive kit is designed to operate the basic head drive unit. It contains a flange for attaching the motor to the basic unit, a hexagonal shaft for transmission of force, as well as other optional equipment features.

Versions in aluminum (SP = AL) or stainless steel (SP = STS) With a Lenze gear motor (GM = 1) or with an interface for installing an SEW SA47 gear motor (GM = 2).

An adaptation is required by the customer for attaching other gear motors (GM = 0)

Speed (vN) fixed or adjustable. For an adjustable speed, gear motors must be retrofitted with an FU (frequency converter). Different voltages and supply frequencies (U/f) Connections are made using terminal boxes (AT = K) or plugs (AT = S) GM = 1 without surface and corrosion protection

Innovative drive concept

Versions in aluminum (SP = AL) or stainless steel (SP = STS)
For SP = AL, with adjustable ball catch coupling (Kpg = 1) or without (Kpg = 0). The adjustable ball catch coupling is protected and integrated in the flange to save space and does not serve personal protection. Preset to maximum chain tensile force at the factory
With Lenze gear motor (GM = 1, without surface and corrosion protection) or with an interface for attaching an SEW SA47 gear motor (GM = 2). In order to ensure a compact installation situation, smaller and lighter gear motors (GM=3) or an interface for the installation of an SEW SA37 gear motor (GM=4) are available for applications with low load. An adaptation by the customer is required for attaching other gear motors (GM = 0),
Fixed or adjustable speed (vN). For an adjustable speed, gear motors must be retrofitted with an FU (frequency converter)
