5.3 Disturbance variables
Torsion, bending and lateral loads are disturbance variables and therefore to be avoided.
HBM mounting aids can be used if necessary. The temperature effects on the zero signal
(strain gage bridge and housing) and on the sensitivity are compensated. Changes in
ambient pressure act as additive (subtractive) forces. Compared to high nominal loads,
these are hardly crucial.
