Example For Corner Load Adjustment - Siemens SIWAREX WL260 Series Operating Instructions Manual

The corner load errors can be electrically compensated. This is done by matching the individual
measured values to the smallest measured value by connecting additional resistors. For details
of how to do this see section Example for corner load adjustment (Page 39)
The resistors are connected in series with the load cell measuring signal. The appropriate resistor
will reduce the measuring voltage until it is equal to the smallest voltage. The temperature
coefficient must be suitably small, due to connection of the resistors in the measuring circuit:
0.25 ppm/K to 10 ppm/K.
