IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
V
WARNING
If something abnormal occurs
Request repair from the retailer where you purchased
the product.
Do not open the cover.
Never remove the cover from this unit. Doing so could
cause malfunction. Request inspection and repair from the
retailer where you purchased the product. Do not alter this
unit. Doing so could cause malfunction.
Do not put foreign objects or water, for example,
into the unit.
Do not place a container that holds water, for example, on
top of this unit. If liquid is spilled, for example, and enters
the unit, this could cause malfunction.
Do not use the unit with any power supply voltage
other than that specified.
Do not use the unit with any power supply voltage other
than that specified. Doing so could cause malfunction.
V
CAUTION
Unsuitable installation locations
Do not place the unit in the following types of locations.
Doing so could cause malfunction.
o
Locations where it might be exposed to smoke or steam,
such as near a kitchen table or humidifier
o
Unstable locations, including unsteady stands and
tilted places
o
Locations that are very humid or dusty
o
Locations that are exposed to direct sunlight
When not using the unit for a long time
For safety, cut the power supply when not using this unit
for a long time.
Do not operate a damaged unit.
Precautions for use
o
This unit is not built to be water or splash resistant,
and it cannot be used in conditions when the relative
humidity is high. Moreover, use in atmospheres with
corrosive gases should be avoided.
o
Be careful to prevent water, oil and other substances
from getting on the unit.
o
Avoid use in conditions where condensation could occur.
o
Connect cores to the load cell after discharging (elim-
inating) static electricity from your body.
o
If the surrounding temperature changes suddenly, the
values output by this device could become unstable,
making accurate measurement impossible.
(This could occur, for example, in a location blown by
warm or cold air.)
o
If a cable of this unit needs to be bent and shifted, make
the curvature of the bent part at least 60 mm. Do not
apply tension to the cable.
o
Conduct load calibrations periodically.

o
The top and bottom surfaces each have a single male
screw for attachment. Attach rod end bearings to
them for use.
o
Lock nuts, for example, cannot be used to tighten the
rod end bearings to the load cell. The load cell attach-
ment screw parts are chamfered, though, so use these
surfaces to secure the set screws.
o
After connecting rod end bearings, tighten the set
screws to prevent rotation.
During inspection before use, confirm that the set screws
are not loose and that there are no signs of turning.
o
After installing a load cell, confirm that the cable will
not be pulled.
Pulling on the cable could result in error.
o
Verify that safety measures to prevent falling and drop-
ping have been implemented.
Electrical connection of load cell with
built-in TEDS
o
Connect as shown in the illustration below. Incorrect
connections could result in inability to balance and
in errors occurring in the output voltage when loads
are applied.

TEDS
o
This unit has a built-in TEDS function.
The orange and green cores in the cable and the F and
G pins in the connector are wired for TEDS.
o
This unit does not support remote sense.
o
See the operation manuals of indicators and strain
amps that support remote sense for how to connect
sensors with those units.
o
The shield is not connected to the main body of this
product. For this reason, if grounding is necessary
because of external noise or another issue, arrange to
ground the shield to a part other than the body of this
unit, for example.
o
Since the cable is directly connected to this unit, use
a specialized cable to increase the length. (Please
consult with us.)
o
When conducting insulation resistance tests, limit them
to the red, black, blue and white cores. Do not apply to
the TEDS cores (orange and green).
