SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Appropriate use
Transducers of the Z6... type series are designed solely for technical weighing applica­
tions within the application limits detailed in the specifications. Any other use is not
appropriate.
Any person instructed to carry out installation, commissioning or operation of the trans­
ducer must have read and understood the Mounting Instructions and in particular the
technical safety instructions.
In the interests of safety, the transducer should only be operated by qualified personnel
and as described in the Mounting Instructions. It is also essential to comply with the legal
and safety requirements for the application concerned during use. The same applies to
the use of accessories.
The transducer is not intended for use as a safety component. Please also refer to the
section: "Additional safety precautions". Proper and safe operation requires proper trans­
portation, correct storage, siting and mounting, and careful operation.
