MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

Important precautions during installation

S
Handle the transducer with care.
S
Welding currents must not be allowed to flow over the transducer. If there is a risk
that this might happen, you must use a suitable low‐ohm connection to electrically
bypass the transducer. HBM, for example, provides the highly flexible EEK ground
cable, which can be screwed on above and below the transducer.
S
Make sure that the transducer cannot be overloaded.
WARNING
There is a danger of the transducer breaking if it is overloaded. This can cause danger for
the operating personnel of the system in which the transducer is installed.
Implement appropriate safety measures to avoid overloads or to protect against resulting
dangers.
Notice
Load cells are precision measuring elements and need to be handled carefully. Dropping or
knocking the transducer may cause permanent damage. Make sure that the transducer
cannot be overloaded, even while it is being mounted.
