6. Precautions
Design
the
structure
to
install the load cell strong enough to withstand the load.
Make the platform strong enough to withstand the load.
Protect the load cell from direct sunlight when the system is installed in the open
air.
If the load cell may be heated by radiated heat or hot air, take measures against
heat.
Leave some slack in the load cell cable so that it will not be pulled.
Install the load cell cable using conduit or flexible tubing.
Separate the load cell cable from any power line.
Connect the wiring correctly.
Red......... Exc (Input)
Green...... (Output)
White ...... Excitation- (Input)
Blue.........Signal- (Output)
Yellow..... Shield
Turn off the indicator and other instruments before attaching the load cell. Check
the connection before operating the load cell.
Do not input excessive excitation voltage above the maximum. It will cause
damage to the load cell.
Avoid shock and overload to the load cell.
When welding is executed, ground the earth line and disconnect the load cell
cable from the indicator to protect the load cell and indictor from the welding
current.
7. Maintenance
Check the following items.
Is there the appropriate clearance?
Is there a foreign substance such as mud at the clearance?
Is there a foreign substance on the load cell and the mount fixtures?
Are there loosened bolts?
Is there slack in the load cell cable?
Is there a connection problem?
Is there any current leakage?
