2.2 Unpacking
Check all packaging for transport damage. Report any such
damage to the transporters and to the authorized Kistler
distributor.
Check accessories delivered (see Section 9.4) before first
use of the equipment. Report any missing parts to the au-
thorized Kistler distributor.
2.3 Notes on using the Press Force Sensor
 The press force sensor must be used only under the
environmental and operating conditions specified.
 With piezoelectric sensors, insulation resistance is of
crucial importance; it must be approx. 10
14
Ω (but not
less than 5·10
13
Ω).
 In order to preserve this value, all plug-and-socket
connections must be kept absolutely clean and dry. The
insulation resistance can be measured with the
insulation tester Type 5493.
 Protect the connector of the press force sensor against
contamination and on no account touch it with your
fingers (connector front). Fit the cover supplied over the
connector when it is not in use.
 A high-insulation cable is used to connect the press
force sensor to a charge amplifier. Once attached, it
should if possible remain connected to the sensor. Use
only specified connecting cables.
 Protect the press force sensor when it is not in use by
storing it in its original packaging.
