Cooling the components

Although the efficiency of the BIC system is very high,
losses occur in the system. The losses lead to heating of
the components and this in turn can lead to a reduction in
performance. To avoid this, cooling of the components is
very important.
Air circulation
The installation must ensure a suitable air flow around the
component.
Heat dissipation
During installation, materials with good thermal
conductivity should be preferred. At the same time, it must
be taken into account that the BIC system is sensitive to
metallic objects, and the specifications for distances from
metals and between the neighboring BIC systems must be
strictly observed (see chapter 5.1.1 on page 11). In
special cases, devices made of plastic (PS, POM, etc.) are
advantageous.
5.1.3 Maximization of transmittable power and
transmission distance
By reducing the ambient temperature as well as distance,
lateral axis offset and angular offset,
the maximum transmittable power can be increased.
Likewise, with lower power requirements the
transmission distance of the BIC system can be increased.
If the BIC system is operated under a high
overload, the output voltage of the Remote
component collapses.

Danger of burns from hot surfaces
The housing and especially the active surface will heat up
under normal operating conditions. There is a risk of burn
injuries! The heat must therefore be dissipated in the best
possible way.
