5.1 Safety instructions
NOTICE
Welding or lightning strike current lowing through the cell can damage it.
All electrical welding on the weighing system must be inished before mounting the load

If the load cells are not set up in the hygienic area (e.g., outdoor applications), the
upper and lower mounting plates must be connected with each other using lexible
copper straps.
The following must be observed during installation:
- Do not lift or transport the load cell by pulling on the cable.
- Avoid shock stress (falling down, hard shocks).
- The load cell must be installed vertically and centrally in the mounting kit.
- Load forces must act in the measuring direction of the load cell.
- The load disc must not be subjected to transverse forces.
- All contact points between load cell and load disc must be adequately greased.
Load cell grease order no., see Chapter
11.1 .
NOTICE
Changes of temperature >15 K/h may inluence the measuring accuracy.
Make sure to protect the load cells from direct heating or cooling efects (sun, wind,
heat radiation, fan heaters), e.g., heat protection screens or heat protection
housings are to be installed if necessary.
NOTICE
Force shunts may cause measuring errors.
All incoming and outgoing lines (hoses, pipes, cables) must be coupled to the
measured object as lexibly as possible.
