Load Cell Cable Connection
First the cable gland (see (1) in fig.1) must be loosened. Then you have to feed the load cell cable through the
cable gland unless the shrink tube is fully disappeared in the box. The wires have to run below the printed
circuit board and will be pulled back to the top at the upper end of the printed circuit board. Afterwards you can
connect the cables to the clamping terminals as indicated below:

After all conductors have been clamped to the terminals, the cable glands must be tightened. Please verify
that all cable glands are tight and the cable is fully stress relieved.
Output Cable Connection
The signal cable (connection between junction box and the following electronics) should be a 6
– wire
shielded cable and must be kept as short as possible. Because this cable usually has a larger diameter than
the load cell cable, you should use the larger cable gland in the middle of the box. Depending on type and
manufacturer signal cables may have different colours. Therefore, make your own choice.
