Safety Instructions

Intended use
Force transducers of the CLP type series are solely designed for measuring
static and dynamic compressive forces within the load limits specified by the
technical data for the respective maximum capacities. Any other use is not the
intended use.
To ensure safe operation, the regulations in the mounting and operating
instructions must be complied with, together with the following safety
requirements and the data specified in the technical data sheets included with
delivery. It is also essential to observe the applicable legal and safety
regulations for the relevant application.
The force transducers are not intended for use as safety components. Please
also follow the instructions in the section "Additional safety precautions".
Proper and safe operation of force transducers requires proper transportation,
correct storage, siting and mounting, and careful operation.
Operating personnel
Mounting and operation of force transducers must only be carried out by
suitably qualified personnel. Qualified personnel in this respect means
persons entrusted with siting, mounting, starting up and operating the product,
who are familiar with the operation of the force transducers and possess the
appropriate qualifications for operating them.
Load carrying capacity limits
Comply with the data in the technical data sheet when using the force
transducer. In particular, the respective maximum loads specified must never
be exceeded. The following limits set out in the technical data sheets must not
be exceeded
 Limit loads
 Lateral load limits
 Breaking loads
 Permissible dynamic loads
 Temperature limits
When several force transducers are connected, it must be noted that the load/
force distribution is not always uniform.
Use as a machine element
The force transducers can be used as machine elements. When used in this
manner, it must be noted that, to favor greater sensitivity, the force transducer
cannot be designed with the safety factors usual in mechanical engineering.
