4 Installation
4.1 Prior to Mounting
4.1.1 Prepare Foundation
The foundation must be designed as follows for the weighing module:
-
horizontal (water level!) supporting/sealing surface
- flat supporting/sealing surface
- sufficient load carrying capacity for the provided loads
Caution:
To ensure tightness, we recommend using a PR 6041/80S adaptor plate.
The joint between the foundation (3) and adaptor plate (2) must be sealed.
If no adaptor plate is used, the leak-tightness between the lower plate of the weighing
module and the foundation (3) must be ensured using an O-ring (1).
The load distribution must be as even as possible to prevent overload of the individual load cells. The
weighing module foundations should be at the same level and the supporting surfaces of the weighing
object (e.g. vessel) must be arranged in parallel. It is imperative to observe the maximum permissible
inclination; refer to figure.
