General dangers due to non‐observance of the
safety instructions
The Z6/M... weighing modules correspond to the state of
the art and are fail‐safe. The tank weiginh modules can
give rise to residual dangers if they are inappropriately
installed and operated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning,
maintenance or repair of a force transducer must have
read and understood the Mounting Instructions and in
particular the technical safety instructions.
Residual dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the weighing
modules covers only a small area of weighing
technology. In addition, equipment planners, installers
and operators should plan, implement and respond to the
safety engineering considerations of weighing technology
in such a way as to minimise residual dangers. Prevailing
regulations must be complied with at all times. There
must be reference to the residual dangers connected
with weighing technology.
Environmental conditions
In the context of your application, please note that all ma­
terials which release chlorine ions will attack all grades of
stainless steel and their welding seams. In such cases
the operator must take appropriate safety measures.
Prohibition of own conversions and modifications
The weighing modules must not be modified from the
design or safety engineering point of view except with our
express agreement. Any modification shall exclude all
liability on our part for any damage resulting therefrom.
