1. Introduction
The load cells in the model 8402 series are primarily designed for the measurement of force in
production equipment, using Newtons (N) as the unit of measurement.
The local gravitational acceleration (g ≈ 9.81 m/s²) must be taken into account when determining
masses.

2. Preparing for use

2.1 Unpacking
Inspect the sensor carefully for damage.
If you suspect that the unit has been damaged during shipping, notify the delivery
company within 72 hours. Keep all packaging materials for inspection by the
representative of the manufacturer or delivery company.
Only transport the model 8402 sensors in their original packaging or in packaging of
equivalent qu lity a
2.2 Using the instrument for the first time
Only connect the sensor to instrumentation amplifiers that are fitted with a safety
transformer according to EN 61558.
Note:
Transmitters connected to the outputs or other devices that are galvanically connected to the
sensor's signal lines must also be fitted with safety transformers according to EN 61558.
2.3 Grounding and potential connection
All connecting wires (including the cable screening braid) are electrically insulated from the
sensor body.
The insulation resistance between the connecting wires and the sensor body is measured.
The test certificate states that the minimum resistance is greater than
