The following distances are recommended between different objects:

Octa inductor –
Octa inductor
Minimum and
recommended in
bridge mode: 10
mm
Maximum: 35 mm
The distances are based on the outer edge of the first
inductor’s mica sheet to the outer edge of the further
inductor’s mica sheet.
In bridge mode it must be secured that NTC sensors of
both coils are covered by the cookware. A four-way
bridging of Octa inductors (horizontally and vertically) is
not allowed.
It is recommended to check the minimum distance that
two kinds of cookware can be used on bridgeable
cooking zones within a deactivated bridge function.
A reduction of the minimum distance between inductors
may cause louder noises. Furthermore, the lower pot
detection limit may increase especially when two cookware
on the concerned coils are operated at different power
levels. Positioning coils too close to each other can cause
cookware to be detected, which are not placed on this
position. Therefore, a reduction under the recommended
minimum distances must be avoided. By increasing the
distances, the heat distribution in the cookware is
decreasing. Larger coils distances and the same cookware
size (compared to same coils, which are closer together)
lead to less coverage on each inductor. This results in either
significantly reduced power in the cookware or higher stress
on the inductor. Furthermore, it must be ensured in the
system that at least one of the NTC sensors is always
covered by the cookware.
