    2.9 Protections The equipment has an integrated protection system both for the hardware and the software. 2.9.1 Software protections 2.9.1.1 IPF (Intelligent Proportional Foldback) Mechanism which is activated on the control unit and works on each individual machi- The IPF is an intelligent system which reduces the equipment’s output power in the event of strong load mismatch, thus preventing the machine from turning off.
  • Page 53 If the second derating is ineffective (in case of external conditions which are not com- patible with the safe operation of the equipment) the equipment switches off. In this case, if the temperature decreases, the power is raised again proportionally. If it decreases by 20°C the derating feature is exited and full power is restored.
  • Page 54: Hardware Protections

    Fault management on RF modules (Lifextender) ® It is provided on amplifiers and exciters. This manages the maximum deliverable power according to the number of RF amplifier modules considered to be operating correctly. If one or more MOSFETs are considered faulty (this happens when the absorbed current is 10% below the average value), the RF output power is reduced to the expected value when a fault occurs.
