Even without a cable protection system, standard load cells can achieve
IP68/IP69K degree of protection. In applications where the PUR cable of the
load cell can be chemically or mechanically attacked or destroyed, extra cable
protection can be provided by means of standard cable protection systems.
5.3 Shortening the cable
As the load cell connection uses a six‐wire configuration, you can shorten the
6‐wire load cell cable without this changing the load cell calibration.
5.4 Cable extension
Use shielded, low‐capacitance measurement cables only for extension. Ensure
that connection is perfect, with a low contact resistance.
The cable of a six‐wire load cell can be extended with a cable of the same
type.
