Protect the transducer from weather conditions such as
rain, snow, ice, and salt water.
Ambient temperature
The temperature effects on the zero signal and on the
sensitivity are compensated.
The nominal temperature range must be maintained to
obtain optimum measurement results.
The arrangement of the SG results in high insensitivity
to temperature gradients due to the construction. Never­
theless, constant or very slowly changing temperatures
are best. A radiation shield and all-round thermal insula­
tion produce noticeable improvements, but must not be
allowed to set up a force shunt.
Moisture and corrosion protection
The force transducers are not hermetically sealed and
must be protected against permanent moisture. The
transducers attain protection class IP54 as per
DIN EN 60259.
The force transducers must be protected against chemic­
als that could attack the steel or aluminum.
On stainless steel force transducers, it must be noted
that acids and all materials which release ions will also
attack stainless steels and their welded seams. Any res­
ulting corrosion could cause the force transducer to fail.
In this case, appropriate protective measures must be
implemented.
