Additional safety precautions
The force transducers cannot (as passive transducers) implement any
(safety‐relevant) cutoffs. This requires additional components and
constructive measures for which the installer and operator of the plant is
responsible.
In cases where a breakage or malfunction of the force transducer would
cause injury to persons or damage to equipment, the user must take
appropriate additional safety measures that meet at least the requirements of
applicable safety and accident prevention regulations (e.g. automatic
emergency shutdown, overload protection, catch straps or chains, or other fall
protection).
The electronics conditioning of the measurement signal should be designed
so that measurement signal failure does not cause damage.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The force transducers are state‐of‐the‐art and reliable. There may be risks
involved if the transducers are mounted, sited, installed and operated
inappropriately, or by untrained personnel. Every person involved with siting,
starting‐up, operating or repairing a force transducer must have read and
understood the mounting instructions and in particular the technical safety
instructions. The force transducers can be damaged or destroyed by
non‐designated use of the force transducer or by non‐compliance with the
mounting and operating instructions, these safety instructions or any other
applicable safety regulations (BG safety and accident prevention regulations)
when using the force transducers. Force transducers can break, particularly in
the case of overloading. The breakage of a force transducer can also cause
damage to property or injury to persons in the vicinity of the force transducer.
If force transducers are not used according to their designated use, or if the
safety instructions or specifications in the mounting and operating instructions
are ignored, it is also possible that the force transducers may fail or
malfunction, with the result that persons or property may be affected (due to
the loads acting on or being monitored by the force transducers).
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small
area of force measurement technology, as measurements with piezoelectric
sensors presuppose the use of electronic signal processing. In addition,
equipment planners, installers and operators should plan, implement and
respond to the safety engineering considerations of force measurement
technology in such a way as to minimize residual dangers. On‐site regulations
must be complied with at all times.
