Load cell grease must be applied to the load cell mounting parts.
The load cell can be extensively sprayed with off-shore all-weather protection spray in
aggressive environments.
Load cell grease specification
-
good water/media resistance
-
good corrosion protection properties
-
good oxidization and aging stability
-
good temperature resistance
-
and, where appropriate, good compatibility with foodstuffs
The requirements referred to apply when taking into account the specific operating/
usage conditions.
The grease also serves as protection against wear (low friction).
