EMC concept
The outstanding noise immunity of the IDENTControl Compact against emission and
immission is based on its consistent shielding design which uses the principle of the Faraday
cage. Interference is caught in the shield and safely diverted via the ground connections.
The cable shielding is used to discharge electromagnetic interference. When shielding a cable,
you must connect both sides of the shield to ground with low resistance and low inductance.
The metal enclosure of the IDENTControl Compact and the metal enclosure of the R/W heads
complete the continuous shielding concept.
You must establish a low resistance and low inductance connection between the shields and
ground so that the shielding is not interrupted through the metal enclosure. The complete
electronics system and all routed cables are located within a Faraday cage.

Note!
If cables with double shields are used, e.g. wire mesh and metalized foil, the both shields must
be connected together, with low resistance, at the ends when making up the cable.
Power supply cables are the source of much interference, e.g. from the supply lines of 3-phase
electric motors. For this reason, the parallel laying of power supply cables with data and signal
cables should be avoided, particularly in the same cable duct.
Caution!
Electromagnetic interference
Device malfunction caused by EMC effects.
Use cables with continuous shield.
