Structure and use of the energy bus
system
This chapter describes the general structure of the podis
system. It includes the electrical configuration of podis
factors that must be considered when designing a podis
installation. You can find an overview of the system
components and their technical data in the appendix under
"podis
components" and "Technical data".
1.1
General structure
The podis
system has a distributed configuration. This applies
to the distribution of energy, automation and the inputs/outputs.
The basic framework of podis
cable. It contains five high-capacity cores (∅ 2.5 mm
main circuit and two cores for the 24 V control electronics.
Energy can be supplied and drawn via supply terminals at any
point on the flat cable (three-phase asynchronous motors). This
system also enables the installation to be retrofitted according
to the user's requirements.
Since the energy and the control voltage are drawn at the point
of the flat cable which is nearest to the load, the
electromagnetic susceptibility of the installation and the
applications is considerably reduced. The complete installation
thus has a clearer overview for both planning and maintenance.
