Weigh Cell Operating Instructions 17
Installation
The torque My is the sum of the torque of the weight force MLoad, the torque of any possible excess weight that may
be applied MEx and the torque from the net weight MCant of the load holder.
The force Fz is made up of the weight force FLoad, the weight force of the cantilever FCant, and the overload force
FOver.
The percentage utilization of forces and torques that occur may not exceed a total of 100%.

However, the overload protection may be triggered even with smaller forces.
Load holders must generally be rigid and torsion-resistant. A test is recommended because there may be unwanted
reactions on the control loop. The influences of drafts and the instructions for analytical weighing must be considered.
