5 Mechanical installation
5.1 Important precautions during installation
- treat the transducer gently
- if measuring compressive forces, make sure there is a solid support
structure
- the force-introduction surfaces must be scrupulously clean and fully
load-bearing
- keep to the depths of engagement for threaded rods or knuckle eyes
- do not overload the transducer.
WARNING
If there is a risk of breakage through overload on the transducer and
thus a risk to persons, additional safety measures are to be taken.
5.2 General installation guidelines
The measurement direction in which forces act on the transducer must be as
precise as possible.
WARNING
Torsion and bending moments, eccentric loading and transverse forces
result in measurement errors and if limit values are exceeded, could
destroy the transducer.
