General dangers due to non‐observance of the
safety instructions
The HLC / BLC / ELC load cells correspond to the state
of the art and are fail‐safe. The load cells can give rise to
residual dangers if they are inappropriately installed and
operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning,
maintenance or repair of a load cell must have read and
understood the Mounting Instructions and in particular
the technical safety instructions.
Residual dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the load cells
covers only a small part of weighing technology. In addi­
tion, equipment planners, installers and operators should
plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering
considerations of weighing technology in such a way as
to minimize residual dangers. Prevailing regulations must
be complied with at all times. There must be reference to
the residual dangers connected with weighing techno­
logy.
Environmental conditions
In the context of your application, please note that acids
and all materials which release (chlorine) ions will attack
all grades of stainless steel and their welding seams.
This may result in corrosion which can lead to the failure
of the load cell. In such cases the operator must take
appropriate safety measures.
