4 Energy Transfer
The maximum power that can be transmitted with the BIC system depends on distance,
lateral axis offset and angular offset (see Section 3.3 and 3.4).
At a distance of 5 mm, a lateral offset of 5 mm and no angular offset, the output current of
500 mA to the remote, which is specified in the electrical data under Section 6.2, is
guaranteed.
4.1. Derating
Explanations for increasing the maximum transmittable power as well as increasing the
maximum transmission distance.
Due to the reduction of distance, axis-offset and angular-offset (cf. paragraph 3.3 and 3.4), it
is possible to increase the maximum transferable power. Similarly, the transmission
distance of the BIC system can be increased in case of lower energy demand. In case of
overload, the output voltage on the Remote side will break down without sending an event
message!
Following diagram depicts the typical curve of the derating-curve.
Derating curve:
output power of
the remote at 24V-
5%
Note
The measurement on which the derating curve is based was carried out without axis and
angular offset. The value ranges of the derating curve are to be interpreted as typical
values.
4.2. Reduction of the
power emitted at
the base when the
remote is
disconnected
To protect people and the environment, the base component automatically reduces power,
which is emitted in the form of electromagnetic fields, as soon as the remote component is
disconnected.
Technical utility
The technical utility is in particular the prevention of heating metallic objects that end up in
front of the base when the remote is disconnected. In addition, the power reduction allows
metals to remain in front of the active surface for long periods of time without causing
damage to the base.
Power reduction
variants
The base component with the order number
BIC0070 (
BIC 1B0-ITA50-Q40KFU-SM4A4A)
reduces power while simultaneously optimizing for faster start-up. Metal objects are heated
up easily.
The base component with the order number
BIC0072
(BIC 1B0-IT005-Q40KFU-SM4A4A)
reduces power with optimization for minimum heating of metals. This adversely affects the
start-up time
Note
The start-up times of both base variants are described under Section 5.2.
