    ● Simple installation of the pressure piece set and the load cell Mounting plates for SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA The mounting plates for SIWAREX WL270 CP-S SA load cells are especially well suited for installation in vehicle scales, platform weighing machines, and container weighers.
  • Page 10: Lifting Protection

    Description 3.1 Application 3.1.2 Lifting protection The lifting protection prevents the load bearing implements from being lifted off of the load cells. If there is a risk of the load bearing implement being lifted or toppled, then lifting protection is required.
  • Page 11: Layout And Function

    Description 3.2 Layout and function Layout and function 3.2.1 Design and principle of operation of the mounting plates Design The mounting plates comprise the following components: ● Upper mounting plate ① ● Lower mounting plate ⑥ Together with the load cell and the pressure piece set the mounting plates represent a self- centering bearing unit.
  • Page 12: Design And Function Of The Grounding Cable

    Description 3.2 Layout and function Principle of operation The mounting plates ensure that the pressure piece set is securely positioned with the load cell. Figure 3-4 Sectional view 3.2.2 Design and function of the grounding cable Design The grounding cable consists of a fine-gauge copper wire with a cross-section of 50 mm and two lugs, Ø...

    Dummies might be designed as follows: ● A copy of the installation unit by means of a welded construction for installation work ● Use of a SIWAREX WL270 compact installation unit A copy of the installation unit by means of a welded construction A piece of pipe or some other steel profile is welded between two plates with the hole pattern for the fixing screws.
  • Page 14: Load Pick-Up

    Application planning 4.3 Load pick-up Load pick-up Mounting surfaces For the mounting surfaces of the mounting plates, the following requirements apply: ● The positional and angular deviations of the mounting surfaces to each other should correspond to the general tolerances for welded constructions in EN ISO 13920. ●...
  • Page 15: Overload Protection

    Application planning 4.4 Overload protection Overload protection CAUTION Irreparable faults and damage to the load cells When using load cells with small rated loads, always provide overload protection in order to protect the cells from becoming damaged. This applies both to the measuring direction and the transverse direction.
  • Page 16: Guide Elements

    Application planning 4.5 Guide elements Guide elements Use the guide elements in the following cases: ● A weight should be determined under the influence of transverse forces. ● Horizontal movement of the load bearing implement should be prevented. A change in the distance between the support points, for example as a result of expansion of the load bearing implement due to heat, must not lead to mutual tensioning of the guide elements.
  • Page 17: Protection Against Explosion

    Application planning 4.6 Protection against explosion Three guide elements are sufficient to statically fix a weighing platform or container. NOTICE Weighing errors With four guide elements, there is a risk of the guide elements mutually tensioning, which in turn induces weighing errors. If you nevertheless want to use four guide elements, the guide elements must be installed with a sufficient amount of play.

  • Page 19: Installation

    Installation Safety information/instructions Load cells are precision components and must therefore be handled carefully. Particular care must be taken during transport and installation. WARNING Danger to life from falling loads • Load cells are not machine components which have been constructed with the normal safety factors.
  • Page 20 Installation 5.1 Safety information/instructions CAUTION Damage to load cells through incorrect mounting • Provide indented claws or crane eyebolts on the load carrier to ensure that hoisting gear can be used safely. • Load cells must never be overloaded. Put the load carrier down slowly for this reason. With load cells of smaller rated loads in particular, there is a risk of stretching the load cell bodies when attaching force transfer devices, e.g.
