6 Mechanical installation
6.1 Important precautions during installation
S Handle the transducer with care.
S Comply with the requirements for the force application parts, as specified in
section 6.2.
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 offers the highly flexible EEK
ground cable in various lengths for this purpose, which can be screwed on
above and below the transducer.
S Make sure that the transducer is not overloaded.
WARNING
There is a danger of the transducer breaking if it is overloaded. This can cause
danger for the operating personnel of the system in which the transducer is
installed, as well as for people in the vicinity.
Implement appropriate safety measures to avoid overloads (also see the
Specifications section 9 on page 29) or to protect against resulting dangers.
6.2 General installation guidelines
The forces to be measured must act on the transducer as accurately as
possible in the direction of measurement. Bending moments resulting from
lateral force, eccentric loading and the lateral forces themselves, may produce
measurement errors and destroy the transducer, if limit values are exceeded.
