Intended use
Force transducers in the C9C series are designed solely for measuring static
and dynamic compressive forces within the load limits stated in the
specifications. Any other use is not the intended use.
To ensure safe operation, it is essential to comply with the regulations in the
mounting instructions, the safety requirements listed below, and the data
specified in the supplied technical data sheets. It is also essential to observe
the applicable legal and safety regulations for the relevant application.
Force transducers are not intended for use as safety components. Please also
refer to the "Additional safety precautions" section. Proper and safe operation
of force transducers requires proper transportation, correct storage, setup and
mounting, and careful operation.
Load-carrying capacity limits
The information in the technical data sheets must be observed when using the
force transducers. The respective specified maximum loads in particular must
never be exceeded. The following limits set out in the technical data sheets
must not be exceeded:
S Force limits
S Lateral limit forces (by oblique application, if necessary)
S Exceeding the permissible eccentricity of force application
S Breaking forces
S Permissible dynamic loads
S temperature limits
S Electrical load limits
Please note that when several force transducers are interconnected, the load/
force distribution is not always uniform.
