MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
7.1
Important precautions during installation
S
Handle the transducer with care.
S
Comply with the requirements for the force application parts as specified in sec
tion 7.3 and section 7.5.
S
Welding currents must not be allowed to flow over the transducer. If there is a risk
that this might happen, you must use a suitable low-ohm connection to electrically
bypass the transducer. HBM provides the highly flexible EEK ground cable for this
purpose, for example. It can be screwed on above and below the transducer.
S
Make sure that the transducer cannot be overloaded.
WARNING
If the transducer is overloaded, there is a risk that it might break. This can pose a danger to
the operating personnel of the system in which the transducer is installed.
Implement appropriate safety measures to avoid overloads (see Specifications in sec
tion 10, page 65) or to protect against resulting dangers.
7.2
General installation guidelines
The forces to be measured must act on the transducer as accurately as possible in the
direction of measurement. Torques and bending moments, eccentric loading and lateral
forces may produce measurement errors and destroy the transducer if limit values are
exceeded.
