6 Mechanical installation conditions of sensors
6.1 Precautions to take during assembly

Force measuring equipment is extremely sensitive and must be
handled carefully.

Attention must be paid to the installation position and therefore the
load direction when the sensors are being installed.

Torsional moments, off-centre loads and lateral loads cause
measuring errors and can permanently damage the sensors.

Care must therefore be taken to keep the sensor free of lateral
loads and torsion during assembly (e.g. when tightening the lock
nuts).

Overloading must be prevented at all times.

The output signal (4...20mA) is noted on the technical
dokumantaion (data sheet/operation instructions). The connection
assignments are also noted in the section entitled “Electrical
connection”. The polarity must be correct at all times.
