5. Installation and Precautions
5.1. Precautions for Installing the Indicator
Ground the scale, so that the user will not be subjected to an electric shock.
To prevent electric shock, do not handle the USB cable with wet hands.
The USB cable is not waterproof. Install the scale in an area where it will not get wet.
Do not install the scale where flammable or corrosive gas is present.
Do not put excessive force on cables.
The scale is heavy. Use caution, as lifting may cause it to fall over.
Use shielded load cell cables.
Please read "Precautions for Installing the Scale" in [Instruction Manual: FG-CWP Series] on
the A&D website (
) for other precautions, cautions as an assembled scale,
storage and cleaning.
5.2. Load Cell Connection
FG-D-CWP has two connection configurations: the 6-wire configuration and the 4-wire configuration.
We recommend connecting using the 6-wire configuration for optimum accuracy and stability.
The applicable diameter of load cell cable is from
φ3.5
to
φ9.0
mm.
