  • Page 7: General Conditions For Installation And Assembly

    General Conditions for Installation and Assembly Lift-off Protection Lift-off protections prevent the top plates being lifted from the load cells or permanently mounted load cells from being overloaded by tension against the measuring direction. Lift-off protections are necessary if there is a danger of the load platform being lifted or tipped.

    Revision 09/04 General Conditions for Installation and Assembly Loads must be introduced precisely in the direction of measurement of the load cells. Torsion and bending moments, excentric loading and lateral loads are disturbance forces that lead to incorrect measurements and can cause damage if exceeding the permitted limitations of the load cells and mounting elements.
  • Page 12: Installation Surfaces

    Revision 09/04 General Conditions for Installation and Assembly DANGER Contaminated, icy or incorrectly set overload protection will create blockages which cause incorrect measurements or can cause injury or damage to the machinery by overloading the scale. CAUTION Proper assembly and installation of load cells and mounting elements is to be ensured by checking the assembly dimensions and freedom of movement for example.
