GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1.
Placement at level
This operation guarantees a good distribution of the loads
and the uprightness of the effort.
Make sure you check the placement at level of the
sensors and of the supporting parts. Use wedges for
thickness if necessary.
1.2.
Shocks, vibrations and overloads
The sensor can take overloads of 150% without being damaged.
If it is likely to undergo shocks and vibrations, you need to mount it with a shock absorber
and it is sometimes necessary to oversize the sensor.
1.3.
Electrical weldings
When arc welding must be done on the structure, it would be advised to install
stranded ground wire in order that the derived current could not pass through the cell,
damaging it. It would also be advised to disconnect the cells of the measuring
instrument.
1.4.
Lightning
If there is a risk of lightning, it would be advised to isolate the cell
completely and derive the current through the stranded wire.
In order to do that, place a rubber sheet, ceramics or other forms of
insulation underneath the sole and polyamide waterproof washers
under the fixing screws.
