Safety instructions

Use in accordance with the regulations
The TTS Transfer torque wrench may be used for torque measurement and
calibration tasks only. Use for any additional purpose shall be deemed to be
not in accordance with the regulations.
In the interests of safety, the transducer should only be operated as described
in the Mounting Instructions. It is also essential to observe the appropriate
legal and safety regulations for the application concerned during use. The
same applies to the use of accessories.
The transducer is not a safety element within the meaning of its use as inten-
ded. Proper and safe operation of this transducer requires proper transporta-
tion, correct storage, assembly and mounting and careful operation.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The transducer corresponds to the state of the art and is fail-safe. The
transducer can give rise to remaining dangers if it is inappropriately installed
and operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning, maintenance or repair
of the transducer must have read and understood the mounting instructions
and in particular the technical safety instructions.
Remaining dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small
area of torque measurement technology. In addition, equipment planners,
installers and operators should plan, implement and respond to the safety
engineering considerations of torque measurement technology in such a way
as to minimize remaining dangers. Prevailing regulations must be complied
with at all times. Reference must be made to remaining dangers connected
with torque measurement technology.
