Safety instructions
Designated use
The reference torque transducer TB2 is designed exclusively for use in torque
measurement tasks and directly associated control and regulating tasks. Use
for any additional purpose shall be deemed to be not as intended.
In the interests of safety, the transducer should only be operated as described
in the Mounting Instructions. It is also essential to observe the appropriate le­
gal and safety regulations for the application concerned. The same applies to
the use of accessories.
The transducer is not a safety element within the meaning of its designated
use. Proper and safe operation of this transducer requires proper transporta­
tion, correct storage, assembly and mounting, and careful operation.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The transducer corresponds to the state of the art and is failsafe. The trans­
ducer can give rise to remaining dangers if it is inappropriately installed and
operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with mounting, starting up, maintaining, or repairing the
transducer must have read and understood the Operating Manual and in par­
ticular the technical safety instructions.
Residual dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small
area of torque measurement technology. In addition, equipment planners, in­
stallers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the safety engi­
neering considerations of torque measurement technology in such a way as to
minimize remaining dangers. On‐site regulations must be complied with at all
times. Reference must be made to remaining dangers connected with torque
measurement technology.
