General Information
Caution:
The load cell cable end is protected against contamination and moisture by a
protective sheathing.
Remove the protective sheathing only shortly before connecting!
• Protect the cable ends against contamination. No moisture must penetrate into the open cable end.
• Don't shorten the load cell connecting cable. Connect the prepared cable end and roll up the remaining
cable.
• The cable screen may be connected only to the connecting terminals of the indicator.
• Keep the load cell cables away from power cables.
• The distance between the measuring cables and the power cables or components under high voltage
should be at least 1 m (reference value).
• We recommend laying the load cell cables in separate cable trays or armored steel pipes.
• Power cables should be crossed at right angles.
