Important precautions during installation
S
Handle the transducer with care.
S
Should high welding currents flow over the sensor, there is a risk - espe
cially if the sensor is not fully in contact, that unintentional welding may oc
cur, and that removal will then no longer be possible. HBM provides highly
flexible EEK ground cables, which can be screwed on above and below the
sensor, to electrically short-circuit it.
S
Make sure that the sensor is not loaded with more than the force limit.
The pre-stress force and the force being measured should not usually be
greater than the nominal (rated) force.
WARNING
There is a danger of the transducer breaking if it is overloaded. This can cause
danger for the operating personnel of the system in which the transducer is in
stalled.
Implement appropriate safety measures to avoid overloads or to protect against
the resulting dangers.
