Property damage to the equipment or the surroundings will result if the hazard is not avoided. Note: It is important to heed these safety notices in order to ensure you handle the model 8524 tension and compression load cell correctly.
Intended use The load cells in the 8524 model 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.
EN 61558. 2.3.3 Restrictions on use The model 8524 tension and compression load cell does not pose a hazard if used within its specification and in accordance with the safety regulations.
Inspect the model 8524 tension and compression load cell for damage. If you suspect that the unit has been damaged during shipping, notify the delivery company within 72 hours.
Only the manufacturer’s own qualified personnel are permitted to open the model 8524 tension and compression load cell. It is not permitted to make any changes to the model 8524 tension and compression load cell without the written agreement of burster präzisionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg. burster präzisionsmesstechnik gmbh &...
Concept and general information Please refer to the data sheet for the model 8524 precision tension and compression load cell for full details of dimensions, weight, degree of protection etc. Mechanical design In the model 8524 tension and compression load cell, the spring element is designed as a horizontally oriented elastic membrane with a centrally arranged ring.
: Reference excitation voltage • c: Rated output of the sensor You can find the rated output “c” on the test certificate for the model 8524 tension and compression load cell. It is typically in the region of 1.5 mV/V ±0.25%.
3.2.3 Overload protection burster offers the model 8524 tension and compression load cell optionally with mechanical overload protection for compressive loads up to a measuring range of 0 ... 20 kN (option 8524-XXXX-XXXXX4XX overload protection unidirectional in direction of compression).
Note: Transmitters connected to the outputs or other devices that are galvanically connected to the signal lines of the model 8524 tension and compression load cell must also be fitted with safety transformers to EN 61558. Grounding and equipotential bonding All connecting wires (including the cable screening braid) are electrically insulated from the sensor body.
Prevent torsional moments, lateral forces and bending forces. Application of force 1. Apply the force being measured to the model 8524 tension and compression load cell via the central thread. 2. Apply the force centrically exactly along the axis of symmetry.
8524 tension and compression load cell is used as a weighing device on containers. Fixing method The entire contact surface of the model 8524 tension and compression load cell must lie on a hardened (60 HRC), flat, ground or lapped mounting surface. Bolts...
