Tension Electronics PFEA111/112, User Manual
Sometimes it is necessary to mount the load cell on an
incline due to mechanical design constraints of the
machine or the need to have a proper force component
T
applied to the load cell.
In this case, the incline angle modifies the tare load and
the force components as shown.
