Mechanical installation

4.1

S Handle the transducer with care.

S Welding currents must not be allowed to flow over the transducer. If there is

a risk that this might happen, you must provide a suitable low‐ohm

connection to electrically bypass the transducer. HBM provides the highly

flexible EEK ground cable for this purpose, for example, that is screwed on

above and below the transducer.

S Make sure that the transducer cannot be overloaded.

WARNING

There is a danger of the transducer breaking if it is overloaded. This can cause

danger for the operating personnel of the system in which the transducer is

installed.

Implement appropriate safety measures to avoid overloads or to protect

against the resulting dangers.

Notice

Load cells are precision measuring elements and need to be handled carefully.

Dropping or knocking the transducer may cause permanent damage. Make

sure that the transducer cannot be overloaded, including while it is being

mounted.

4.2

Attach the load cells at the mounting holes and apply load to the other end.

The screws and tightening torques to be used are given in the following table:
