Warnings:
• In general the load cells are not living up to 2 MOPP, which is okay as long as all other parts comply with 2 MOPP and the load cells are
electrically connected to the bed frame. This is to make the bed one electrical unit.
Recommendations
• Shielded load cell cables will be damaged if exposed to sharp bends. Therefore, if bended, cables should have a minimum bending radius of 60 mm.
• It is not allowed to bend load cell cables repeatedly, so mount cables on non-moving parts, like the bed frame.
• Load cell cables should not exceed a length of 2700 mm.
• In Europe weight systems are subject to important legal restrictions. The LINAK Weighing System system will be approved in accordance
with EN45501.
The used load cells must be OIML approved as well (this is not included in the LINAK approval).
• Do not mount the QLCI2 directly on actuators.
• Load cell cables are not to be mated more than 40 times.
Calibration
• When calibrating, the application and components should be allowed to acclimate to ensure that they have the same temperature as the
surrounding environment.
• For optimal performance the QLCI2 should be calibrated with a load similar to the in-use weight. For instance an application for lighter loads
would benefit from having the bed calibrated with a lighter calibration load than an application for heavy use.
• The application will be most precise when calibrated with a load slightly above the in-use weight.
• Calibrate the application on a stable base.
