Power supply
•
For primary loop pairs up to a size of 3 m x 4.5 m one power supply per loop pair is required.
For larger loops up to 3 m x 6 m one power supply per loop is required.
The power supplies are installed near the primary loops outside the control cabinets.
•
The power supplies are installed in the proximity of the primary loops, outside of cabinets with
a maximum wiring length (twisted primary loop cable) between power supply and each primary
loop of 5 m.
•
A space of 200 mm has to be kept above and below each power supply in order to guarantee
sufficient air circulation and heat dissipation (see V6, ‘Power Supply WPU100’).
•
All power supplies of a setup (and adjacent setups) have to be connected one after the other
by a synchronization cable.
•
For synchronization one power supply is set to master mode and all other power supplies
connected via synchronization cables are set to slave mode.
•
All power supplies of one setup have to be switched on/off via one switch.
•
To obtain a rotating electromagnetic field, all slave devices for primary loops which are turned
by 90° against the primary loops of the master device (=0° !) have to be set to a phase of 90°.
•
At all other Slave-devices and at the Master, a phase of 0° has to be selected.
