Load cells can be wired in parallel by joining the load cell
cable core ends of the same color. In this case, HBM
provides junction boxes of the VKK... series, and for use
in potentially explosive areas, VKK2R‐8 Ex junction
boxes. The output signal is then the average of the indi­
vidual output signals.
Important
Overloading of an individual load cell cannot then be de­
tected from the output signal.
