General hints
S Please handle the load cell carefully.
S Use appropriate lifting gear when mounting the weighing device.
S Do not overload the load cell, not even for a short time (e.g. due to
unevenly distributed supporting loads).
S If required, use supporting elements (dummies) of the same height for
alignment purposes.
The C16i... is a pendulum load cell designed to automatically restore the
mounting construction to a stable initial position in the case of a lateral dis­
placement of the load introduction (= skewing of the load cell). The maximum
permissible lateral displacement or skewing (see chapter 8 "Dimensions") must
not be exceeded, otherwise the load cells or load introduction parts might be
damaged. The easiest and most common solution for this problem are the ap­
propriate stops on the mounting construction (weighing platform) which must
be carefully adjusted within the specified values.
With the C16i..., we recommend the use of EPO3/50t and C16/EPU44A or
C16/ZOU44A mounting accessories from HBM, because they permit easy
mounting. The rotation stop device welded onto the load cells and the dowel
pin provided are also suitable for this model type (see chapter 8 "Dimensions").
Preparation work for mounting
When using EPO3/50t, C16/EPU44A or C16/ZOU44A to introduce and carry
off the load, the following preparations have to be made: A dowel pin is en­
closed in the packing for every load cell. This dowel pin and the rotation stop
welded onto the load cell prevent a potential transducer microrotation, thus pre­
venting the cable from being damaged. Use a hammer to drive in the dowel pin
until it rests in the load introduction part's pocket bore. Radially position the
open side of the dowel pin.
