4.3.3 Connection of analog load cells and platforms
4.3.3.1 General instructions
The device is equipped with an integrated connection for analog weighing
electronics. The interface can be configured by software.
Note: The load cell/platform cable is routed in the table-top unit
through the cable gland to the plug connector and then connected, see
chapterTable-top device und Connecting an analog weighing platform
with a 6-wire cable.
The supply voltage is protected against short circuit/overload.
Weighing platforms and load cells can be connected to the device as follows:
– One weighing platform, see Chapter Connecting an analog weighing plat
form with a 6-wire cable
– One load cell directly, see ChapterConnecting a load cell with a 4-wire ca
ble and Connecting a load cell with a 6-wire cable
– several load cells in the junction box via connecting cable, see Chapter
Connecting between 2 and 8 load cells (650 Ω) using a 6-wire connection
cable
Note: Do not shorten the load cell cable. Connect the prepared cable end
and roll up the excess length.
