SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Designated use
The force transducers in the type series S2M are solely designed for measuring static
and dynamic tensile and/or compressive forces within the load limits specified by the
technical data for the respective maximum capacities. Any other use is not the desig
nated use.
To ensure safe operation, the regulations in the mounting instructions, together with the
following safety rules and regulations, and the data specified in the technical data sheets,
must be complied with. It is also essential to observe the applicable legal and safety reg
ulations for the application concerned.
The force transducers are not intended for use as safety components. Please also refer
to the section: “Additional safety precautions". Proper and safe operation of force trans
ducers requires proper transportation, correct storage, siting and mounting, and careful
operation.
Loading capacity limits
The data in the technical data sheet must be complied with when using the force trans
ducer. In particular, the respective maximum loads specified must never be exceeded.
The following limits set out in the technical data sheets must not be exceeded
S
Limit loads
S
Lateral load limits
S
Breaking loads
S
Permissible dynamic loads
S
Temperature limits
S
Limits of electrical loading capacity
Please note that when several force transducers are interconnected, the load /force dis
tribution is not always uniform.
Use as a machine element
The force transducers can be used as machine elements. When used in this manner, it
must be noted that, to favor greater sensitivity, the force transducer was not designed
with the safety factors usual in mechanical engineering. Please refer here to the section
“Loading capacity limits" and to the specifications.
Accident prevention
The prevailing accident prevention regulations must be taken into account, even though
the nominal (rated) force values in the destructive range are well in excess of the full
scale value.
