Cable protection (provided by customer)

Cable protection system*, comprising:
Even without a cable protection system, standard load cells can achieve an IP
rating of IP68/IP69K. In applications where the PVC cable of the load cell could
be chemically or mechanically attacked or destroyed, extra cable protection
can be provided using standard cable protection systems.
5.3

Shortening and extending the cable

When a six-wire configuration is used, the 6‐wire cable of the load cell can be
shortened with no adverse effect on measurement accuracy.
Use only shielded, low-capacitance measurement cables to extend cables,
making sure there is a proper connection with minimal contact resistance.
The cable of a six-wire load cell can be extended using a cable of the same
type.
5.4

Parallel connection (option)

Only single-point load cells with a compensated output (nominal (rated)
sensitivity and output resistance) are suitable for parallel connection.
