5.6 EMC protection
Important
Load cells with shielded, round cables are EMC‐tested in accordance with EC
directives and are identified by CE certification. However, you must connect
the shield of the connection cable on the shielding electronics enclosure, in
order to achieve EMC protection for the measuring chain.
Electrical and magnetic fields often induce interference voltages in the measur­
ing circuit. Therefore:
S
Use shielded, low‐capacitance measurement cables only (HBM cables fulfill
both conditions).
S
Do not route the measurement cables parallel to power lines and control
circuits. If this is not possible, protect the measurement cable with e.g.
steel conduit.
