The supporting structure of the scale (and thus the load cells) as well as the
weighbridge must be stable enough to withstand the speciied loads, horizontal
(check with spirit level!) and lat.
-
Transverse and/or horizontal forces and torques exceeding the permissible limits are
disturbances which can generate measuring errors and, in the worst case, may
damage the load cell.
-
If stops are used, damage and measuring errors can be prevented without afecting
the required space for movement in the direction of the measurement.
The lateral play of the weighbridge must always be restricted to the distance "A" (see
igure) in the longitudinal and transverse direction by appropriate stops.
Consideration should be given to the fact that thermal expansion and contractions
may constrict the required space for movement of the object to be weighed and
could thereby lead to signiicant falsiication of the measuring results.
